Democrat Senator Cory Booker apparently loves rejection. Booker recently revealed that he’s not opposed to running for his party’s presidential nomination in 2028. His previous run in 2020 was an utter disaster.
Here’s Booker. (WATCH)
Spartacus says he hasn’t dismissed the idea of running for president again in ’28.

He dropped out of the 2020 Democrat primary while polling at 2%. pic.twitter.com/7AO1ts2JNB
Well, everyone else has

He was dismissed before, and he’ll be dismissed again if he runs.
Posters mocked Booker by reminding him that at least he was more popular than Kamala Harris in 2020.
Kamala dropped out less than that and look at her today! pic.twitter.com/CVJ3Iy55hV

Spartacus was ahead of Kamala Harris in 2020, so he has high hopes.

No offence. The field is currently Kamela, AOC, and Gavin if he can survive fraud scandals. Sparts isn't out of his depth.

Booker would have a hard time beating any of those names for the nomination, even Harris.
Commenters point to Booker’s recent nuptials as a sign that he’s running.
If Ted Cruz shaves off his beard, he's running in 2028.

If Cory Booker gets a beard, he's running in 2028. pic.twitter.com/9XH28IRbLz
😂😂😂😂he got himself a token wife for just that reason !!!!

All he's done since then is marry a beard and make himself look even more preposterous.

Some speculated that his record-breaking Senate filibuster was to boost his chances for a future White House run.
Commenters say that Booker would have a hard time beating someone as utterly cringe as Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey if he decided to run. (WATCH)
Here’s how bad it’s become in this country. I will bet you that Spartacus wouldn’t even get 2% this year. And just wait till you see the utterly, pathetic losers that are ahead of Spartacus in the polls. pic.twitter.com/kAI7MtsbIB

Please. I need this to happen. He was comedy gold last time.

The Democrat bench is not deep. So does Booker have a chance? Not really. As the last poster mentioned, it would be difficult to put a price on the comedic value he would add to the 2028 Democrat Party Presidential nomination race.
