Record of the longest speech
A Democratic Senator has set the longest speech record in the Congress by speaking against President Donald Trump for more than 25 hours in the Senate. Senator Corey Booker started his speech on Monday evening and finished Tuesday evening. He showed extraordinary endurance in his speech, which he stood up, without breaks. To do so, he took advantage of the Senate rules that allow the senators to speak without a time limit to propagate and oppose Trump’s policies. He failed to nominate the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination in 2020 and eventually endorsed former President Joe Biden. Fellow Democrats also asked him questions as per permission under the rules. He broke the record established by the Storm Thermond in 1957. One of the racist Senators who gave a speech for 24 hours and 18 minutes in the Senate to prevent the passing of the Civil Rights Act, which guarantees voting rights for Americans.
Gave a marathon speech
Hours after Thermond completed their speech, the Senate passed the historic civil rights law and President Dwight Eisenhower transformed it into law. Thermond was a Democrat when he gave a marathon speech. By the time the Thermand Joined the Thermand Republican Party in 1964, both sides changed their policies. Booker said of Thermand, “It’s wrong to hate him,” “I’m not here because of his speech. Despite his speech I am here. I am here because people were more powerful than him.”
Trump versus speech
Citing Civil Rights Leader John Lewis several times in his speech, he finally repeated his words, “Fall in good trouble, get in trouble, and help protect America’s soul.” Unlike Thermand, Booker was not trying to delay the law, but only standing in opposition to Trump. The 55 -year -old Booker is a former athlete at Stanford University. He was an American football champion and got a graduate and master’s degree from the university. He obtained a rods scholarship, studied at Oxford University and obtained a law degree from Yale University.
List of US problems
Senator Booker, who represented New Jersey, criticized Trump and asked if Americans are now better or that Trump took over 72 days before he took office. He further said, “Now the price is high, the stock market where many Americans have their retirement funds have gone down and the trust of the consumers has dropped.” He said that instead of fulfilling his election promise to reduce prices, Trump is adopting policies such as raising tariffs, which will only increase prices, while attacking Canada and talking about possessing Greenland.
