2:36Now PlayingSen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) told reporters after his marathon filibuster speech that he didn’t have to go to the restroom over 25 hours because he hasn’t eaten since Friday, and stopped drinking water Sunday. He said he intentionally dehydrated himself ahead of his attempt to break the record for longest Senate floor speech.
“I fasted for days into it, I stopped drinking water a long time ago. I think that had good and bad benefits,” Booker said. “I think I stopped eating on Friday, and then to stop drinking the night before I started on Monday. And that had its benefits and it had its really downsides.”
