Cory Booker: ‘This Planet Simply Can’t Sustain’ People Eating Meat
Democrat 2020 hopeful is vegan because eating eggs 'didn't align with my spirit'

Sen. Cory Booker (D., N.J.) said the planet "can't sustain" people eating meat, as the 2020 hopeful aims to become the first vegan president.

Booker told the vegan magazine VegNews earlier this month that he became vegan after coming to the realization that eating eggs "didn't align with my spirit."

While claiming he does not want to lecture Americans on their diets, Booker says Americans need to be nudged into fake cheese because the planet cannot sustain the "environmental impact" of the food industry.

"You see the planet earth moving towards what is the Standard American Diet," Booker said. "We've seen this massive increase in consumption of meat produced by the industrial animal agriculture industry."

"The tragic reality is this planet simply can't sustain billions of people consuming industrially produced animal agriculture because of environmental impact," he said. "It's just not possible."

Booker says the "devastating impact" of greenhouse gases produced by the meat industry is "just not practical."

I was a vegan for a while. I honestly think it’s a phrase most people do go through, trying vegetarian or vegan

I try to eat a vegetarian meal once a week but I have to confess I do like eggs, cheese and chicken.

I think I should really look more into it again. Vegetarian. With eggs and cheese though.

Don't worry, they'll tell you..... over and over and over and over and over....

You would be wrong there. I know very few people who dabbled with that. You either are or you aren't.

This guy is trying to win a popularity contest at a PITA rally, not the Presidency of the United States. This blather is idiotic. No one is going to vote for some failed Mayor who wants to outlaw hot dogs.

Everyone of my cousins dabbled in it at college. Maybe it’s a college thing you try between 19-21ish.

That’s about when I tried it. All my college friends tried it too then. Most only for a few weeks , though.

I've only known one vegan who didn't cheat and it was a food control thing with her. If you get into the Weed, that vegan shiite goes right out the window.

My husband is the unhealthiest vegan on planet earth.  He is always harping on how my son and I should be vegans.  I only eat red meat in lean hamburger form and mostly eat fish.  I detest soy products.  To me it is like eating a pencil eraser.

Just off the top of my head:

1.   Health insurance industry

2.   Commercial airlines

3.   Auto industry

4.   Meat and dairy farming

5.   Coal,  oil and gas industries

6.  Nuclear power industry

Same with homeschoolers. My cousin, a homeschooler, agrees.

That's Great. More good news from the Loony Left.
If they want to concentrate on the Vegan/Homosexual/Muslim/Felon/Homeless/Illegal vote, then great.

I swear guys. Without cheating and voter fraud, an American Democrat would never be elected to any office. There are not that many weirdos in America. Something is very, very off, with American elections and vote counts. How can Democrats keep getting elected with all these demographic sliver votes. Democrats pander to constituencies which represent 10%-20% of the population combined.

And by "lecturing," we mean, "hectoring."
