According to the Democratic Party and the state-run legacy media mob, Booker gesture good; Musk gesture bad…
Conservatives are mocking Sen. Cory Booker for appearing to give a “Nazi salute” while addressing California Democrats — joking that the New Jersey senator won’t face the same media backlash Elon Musk did when he raised his arm to MAGA supporters in January.
“NEW: Democrat Senator Cory Booker appears to do a ‘Nazi’ salute in front of a large crowd of Democrats. I’m looking forward to the wall to wall coverage from the ‘honest’ and totally not biased media,” Trending Politics co-owner Collin Rugg posted to X.
“If Elon Musk is a Nazi for doing this gesture… Cory Booker is one too. Sorry, I don’t make the rules,” X user Angela Belcamino posted.
“Hi @MSNBC, you reported on Elon’s hand gesture and compared him to a n*zi I was looking for your article on Cory Booker’s salute but I couldn’t find it.. I’m sure you probably just missed this story by mistake… Here’s the clip. I look forward to your report condemning him,” popular conservative account Libs of TikTok quipped.
