READ: Cory Booker Twitter Grammar Errors Lead to Trump Joke

Democratic Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey owned up to a few glaring grammar errors on Monday after Twitter users pointed them out to him.


One of the tweets read, "I proud to be working with a great team and coalition to make this happen," which clearly should have read "I'm," but wasn't caught before he posted.

Another tweet said, "If your in Virginia, make sure you are registered for the governor’s race. Deadline today," using the wrong form of "you're," and sending shivers down the spines of grammarians everywhere.

Twitter users were quick to jump on the glaring errors, wondering if someone from Booker's team was making the mistakes:

But Booker threw himself under the bus, owning up to committing the heinous errors:

And, much to everyone's delight, he even threw in an epic dig at President Trump:

Twitter naturally went nuts:

But Booker didn't stop there. After all, he was on a roll:

Of course, Booker's response also led to some speculation that he might, in fact, be running for president in 2020:

While Booker hasn't confirmed that he has his sights set on the White House in 2020, his name has certainly been thrown around.

At this year's Congressional Black Caucus Foundation policy forum, Booker, along with Sen. Kamala Harris, generated the most buzz as potential nominees. "You’re hearing Kamala, and Cory’s a distant second," James Williams, a former congressional aide and current director of federal relations for Wayne State University told NBC News back in September.

And despite some skepticism over whether or not both Harris and Booker would run in a Democratic primary, Twitter users wouldn't mind seeing both names on the ticket:

Currently, betting odds have Elizabeth Warren in the lead for the Democratic nomination:

But if Booker keeps slaying grammar trolls on Twitter, perhaps he can rise above the fray and find his name on the ticket in three years.

CNN Just Used A Hilarious Poll To Show Just How Unpopular Trump's Ballroom Is—And We're Cackling

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
