The short answer? When she's around!
An exchange went down on Twitter after Booker got word that Kaling's character on FOX/Hulu's "The Mindy Project" — which she created — dissed Newark on the show this week.
Booker:
Ouch! 💔 @MindyKaling, heard Dr. Lahiri dissed Newark last night 🤔... @VogueMagazine & I disagree ✌🏼: http://cor.bo/2nJtwhP (I still ❤️U!)
Kalling:
Senator, if Mindy Lahiri shades it, it means we know it's cool. Thanks for the ❤. It's mutual!
Booker:
You are making my day! Thanks for the clarification. And If the ❤️is really mutual... Come have dinner with me in Newark? #PleaseSayYes 🤞🏾
And, she did! The senator tweeted Kaling the PATH train scheduled but promised to send a Lyft right to her door.
