Booker responded to the tweet on CNN (top video) simply by saying, "I love Donald Trump...I don't want to answer hate with hate. I'm going to answer it with love."
Booker joked that Trump has been attacking so many members of the Democratic party that he'd been feeling "a little left out." He added that these attacks have no merit and are only meant to make people speculate.
"I love you, Donald," he said. "I pray for you. I hope that you find some kindness in your heart, that you’re not going to be somebody who spews out insults to your political opposition, that you’re going to start finding some ways to love."
