If we give this an extremely charitable reading, it could be an event that catalyzes additional action and inspires the Democrats to get off the benches, but I don't know how likely that is. I'll admit I have zero clue what the content of the speech actually was or if this has changed the rhetoric among Booker's colleagues.
Because there was nothing at the core of the protest (why not filibuster the budget bill, Corey? Take a stand, cause a shutdown, actually create problems for people? Probably because you wouldn't have had any support from the rest of the Senate dems and wouldn't be able to take any breaks), I'm not sure it gives anyone anything to rally around. What are people finding inspiring here and what are they feeling inspired to do?
the content doesn't matter it's all aesthetics
