If you think this is cowardice then you must not yet have developed object permanence.
This is the main role of the democratic party, keep the left down and keep the capitalist happy. They will cynically adopt any issue - that doesn’t threaten that prime directive - for a few months, be it black lives matter or trans rights, and then drop them again once it’s no longer convenient.
But if any real leftist candidate (with huge democratic support and winning based on broadly popular policies), ever comes close to power, all defense mechanisms kick in.

...what does a new jersey senator have to say about a new york mayor, whaaaa?...

New Jersey and New York City are intimately connected both in terms of land and economy. One of NYC's biggest landmarks, the Statue of Liberty, is literally on the border with New Jersey. Plus Cory Booker is a Democrat with a high profile nationally and he is going to try for the presidency again so some people are interested in his opinion.

Newark, the city Booker was mayor of, is widely considered to be #2 in the NYC metro area. Before 2020, many people commuted between Penn Station (NYC) and Penn Station (Newark). Many still do, in spite of NJ Transit & Amtrak screwing it up.
Newark & NYC candidates often endorse one another.

The hypocrisy is one significant factor, but more importantly are the values that many wealthy Democrats lack.

That rotten removed.

I really don't understand calling people one dislikes "removed". I personally love anyone who sucks cock. They're doing good in this world, unlike Cory Booker.
It's also kinda homophobic, eh?

In this context he's willing to make everyone happy despite their ideology.
