Democratic Sen. Cory Booker tweeted a feminist-themed holiday poem Saturday, prompting some on social media to poke fun at the New Jersey politician for pandering.

The poem was a take on the “12 days of Christmas”  but instead of turtledoves and gold rings, it demanded equal wages, an end to fat shaming and “no tampon tax.”

Others cited Booker’s frequently mentioned childhood friend T-Bone, who some have speculated may not exist. They asked if Booker consulted with T-Bone before sending out the tweet.

Finally, famous statistician Nate Silver took the tweet as a sign of Booker’s plans to make his own White House run in 2020.
