Information about the source of the death threat,  any arrests in connection with it or any other specifics was not given. News of the threat came after Booker called for President Trump to resign and leave The White House on December 9, North Jersey reported. The Democratic lawmaker, who is being eyed as a presidential candidate hopeful in 2020 and campaigned for Doug Jones , is far from alone in wanting Trump out. Four more senators — three Democrats including New York’s Kirsten Gillibrand and Bernie Sanders  — have joined Booker and Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon in demanding Trump’s resignation. Of course, social media users, Black millennials and civil rights activists have been talking about POTUS’ possible impeachment for some time now. SOURCE: ABC News , North Jersey SEE ALSO: Sen.
