In the United States, a senator has been giving a speech for more than 24 hours in protest against Trump.

Cory Booker, a representative of the Democratic Party of the United States, broke the record for the longest speech in the Senate, speaking for more than 24 hours and 18 minutes. The politician's speech in the Senate will be broadcast from April 1.

His colleague in the party, Chuck Schumer, informed the public about the record. At the same time, even having overcome the length of the previous speech, Booker still continues to speak as part of a protest against the administration of US President Donald Trump.

The previous record for the longest speech was set in 1957 by Democratic Senator Strom Thurmond.
