"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin asked Sen. Cory Booker on Monday if he should be the next Democratic leader as Sen. Chuck Schumer has faced calls to step down.

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker is continuing a marathon speech on the Senate floor, which passed the 25-hour mark and broke a record on Tuesday evening, all without a bathroom trip, a bite of food or even a sit-down break for the lawmaker.

On Tuesday at 7:19 p.m., Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) surpassed the late South Carolina segregationist Strom Thurmond’s longstanding record for the longest speech in the history of the U.S. Senate, which was 24 hours and 18 minutes. As his remarks stretched past that mark, Booker reflected upon the significance of his legacy overtaking Thurmond’s.
