Yeah, no.

BOOKER: “We don’t win this election by trying to be more Trumpy than Trump. That is not what America needs. We didn’t beat bullies in the past—demagogues. Every generation has had them. Heck, we had McCarthy rise up in power, we had a whole political party that used the same immigration rhetoric this president used. They were called the Know-Nothing Party. We didn’t beat them in the past by showing the worst of who we are, but by calling to the best of who Americans are. We didn’t beat Bull Connor in Birmingham by bringing bigger dogs and bigger fire hoses. No, it was artists of activism, from this state as well, who in times of moral moments, times of crisis, found ways to expand the moral imagination of this country, awakening people to the urgency, not of being hateful, but of being more better agents of kindness, of decency, of grace.”
