🚨Cory Booker has started a “marathon” anti-Trump speech on the Senate floor, vowing to speak as long as he’s “physically able.”

Democrats are searching for ways to lift their sagging approval numbers, and believe Spartacus droning on against Trump and Elon all night can help. pic.twitter.com/2si8m0U0hH

Here’s some video. (WATCH)

Sen. Booker is filibustering the Senate right now.

Senator Cory Booker has entered hour number 5 of his “filibuster” of nothing, and he’s already sweating like a pig.

I dunno how much longer until he’s “physically not able to continue,” but it’s not looking good. 😓 pic.twitter.com/GOTuMv2oHd

Oh, no! Anyway…

Commenters are seeing this stunt as the Democrat Party’s cry for help.

Nothing says “we’re out of ideas” like wheeling out Cory Booker to whine about Trump and Elon for 12 hours straight.

Posters are wondering if Booker is alone in speech struggle.

Are any Senators in the room or is he just rambling to himself???

From what I’ve read, there are some Dems there to feed him some questions at certain points.

Fellow Democrat Senators Chuck Schumer, Lisa Blunt Rochester, and Chris Murphy joined Booker. No Republicans were present.

One poster felt sorry for Booker.

Does he not have anyone at all that loves him enough to let him know, the more he speaks, the worse he sounds?

This stunt combined with the much-maligned synchronized X videos he took responsibility for make more sense in light of the below — he is the “strategic communications” guy in the party now, and is trying “new tactics” 😂 pic.twitter.com/iAsD50DNvA

I guess Cory decided he could drive their number under 25%, you got this

This stunt will most likely not drive up approval numbers for the Democrats. As of this writing, Booker was still speaking and reading letters from constituents.
