Senator Adam Schiff Says that Senator Cory Booker Is ‘a Towering Intellect’

BOOKER: “I yield for a question while retaining the floor, and I thank you for being here.”
Schiff: “I thank you for being here. Senator Booker, I always knew you were a towering intellect and a phenomenal and passionate speaker and advocate, but I did not know your stamina until today. And I am delighted to join you on the floor and have this opportunity to engage in a dialogue with you.”
BOOKER: “You can’t engage in a dialogue. The parliamentarian is going to stare me down. You can ask me questions.”
Schiff: “Let me, I stand corrected. I’m happy not to engage in a dialogue with you —“
BOOKER: “No.”
Schiff: “— but to ask you a question.”
BOOKER: “And I will yield for a question while retaining the floor.”
