Not only is Cory Booker an idiot he is lazy. Move the cursor to 2:10 and you will see that he did not know the name of the German ship he cited:

MS St. Louis surrounded by smaller vessels in its homeport of Hamburg.
The MS St. Louis was a German ocean liner most notable for a single voyage in 1939, in which her captain, Gustav Schröder, tried to find homes for 908 Jewish refugees from Germany, after they were denied entry to Cuba, the United States and Canada, until finally accepted in various European countries, which were later engulfed in World War II.

Had Booker spent a few minutes researching his talking point before he made a fool of himself he would have learned that contrary to the final scene in the movie Ship of Fools the Hamburg American Line’s passenger ship MS Saint Louis docked in Antwerp, Belgium not Bremerhaven, Germany. Most of the Jews were taken in by Belgium, France, Holland and the United Kingdom. Approximately, 75 percent of the refugees who returned to Europe survived WWII.
The voyage of the Saint Louis has a lot to do with today’s views on immigration. I call it the Saint Louis syndrome gone wild.
The specter of the St. Louis has been hovering over national sovereignty since the horrors of the Holocaust became known. The Jews on the St. Louis were fleeing persecution. The public only learned the details of the Holocaust after WWII ended. Those details proved that the Jews on the St. Louis had a legitimate claim to political asylum. No decent human being wants to make the same mistakes.
Refusing asylum to the 900 Jews on the Saint Louis caused a furor. Nevertheless, 900 is an insignificant number compared to the estimated 30 million illegal aliens in the country today. Indeed, 900 is a relatively low number when compared to the number of Haitian boat people who got “economic asylum” in the past two decades.
The Saint Louis was the forerunner of mass migrations. Those who say that no country has to accept immigrants are called cruel. Those who are driving the world toward government policies like euthanasia, infanticide, and population controls are portrayed as compassionate murderers who kill with kindness.
Unfortunately for Americans, political asylum morphed into economic asylum, open borders, and tens of millions of illegal immigrants. Individuals no longer have to prove they are the targets of government murder. These days, groups claiming a hard life in their native land is considered government persecution.
In truth, 900 Jews would not have overwhelmed America; whereas the number of foreigners pouring into our welfare state are destroying the fabric of society with assistance from the opens borders crowd; i.e., Democrats and RINO. In short: The world, and political asylum, became a lot more complicated since 1939.
Not challenging the claim that America must accept mass migrations opens the door to unrestricted immigration.
Finally, the United Nations crowd are determined to abolish political asylum even though they are currently handing it out like free money so illegal aliens can attack the America people. Who needs political asylum when there are no national borders? The next question is: Where does a persecuted individual go for political asylum after a global government starts killing hundreds of of millions ‘undesirables’?
If any person in the nineteenth century would have said that future governments were going to slaughter their own people in the tens of millions that person would have been locked away in a rubber room. The Turks slaughtered millions of Armenians before WW I. Lenin and Stalin starved tens of millions prior to WW II. Communist China is credited with killing at least a hundred million after 1949. All of government murders established a precedent that removed all restraints on today's Socialists once they are in a position to kill billions.
The government ordered killings that took place in the Soviet Union, in Nazi Germany, and in Communist China were incomprehensible to decent men and women before the murders happened. Would-be protectors whose minds and souls are diseased with Socialism’s totalitarianism will kill billions after their global ducks are all in a line. Killing two or three billion out of a population of seven or eight billion will hardly be missed.
p.s. Do not doubt global government will, and can, kill billions with modern technology.
