Democratic US Senator Booker takes on Trump in record-breaking speech

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Trump in his first weeks in office has moved to outright shutter government arms including the Department of Education and withhold congressionally approved spending.
41% : In the end, Thurmond failed in his mission to block a bill that expanded federal protections of voting rights for Black people.
41% : Democratic voters have become restive in recent weeks as Trump, backed by a Republican-controlled Congress, has shaken up long-established U.S. alliances and cut more than 100,000 federal workers.
18% : "Cory Booker is looking for another 'I am Spartacus' moment, but that didn't work for his failed presidential campaign, and it didn't work to block President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh," said deputy White House press secretary Harrison Fields. Booker, a former mayor of Newark, New Jersey, had made a run for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, the year that Trump ultimately lost his bid for re-election to Joe Biden.
17% : Their anger has been aimed both at Republican lawmakers and the party's own leaders, including top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer and top House of Representatives Democrat Hakeem Jeffries, for not being aggressive enough in challenging Trump.
