[TexasTowelie]

Cory Booker, in his second presidential campaign visit to Nevada in the two and a half months after his declaration of candidacy, spoke to a room of UNLV students and Las Vegans on Thursday.

Booker’s talk touched on issues including political tribalism, infrastructure, the border and criminal justice. Before the event, the U.S. senator from New Jersey spoke on the Mueller report released earlier in the say, saying the findings were concerning, but he hadn’t finished reading it.

“I think we’re seeing clearly that this report is not reflective of the spin that our attorney general tried to put on that report,” he said, referring to Attorney General William Barr’s summation of the report and news conference before the release.

Booker said he was not on board with impeachment, however, saying the investigation needs to continue and that he would like Special Counsel Robert Mueller to explain some of his findings before Congress.
