New Jersey Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker said President Trump's upcoming impeachment trial and other issues demanding his attention in Washington could be a "big, big blow" to his efforts to win next month's Iowa caucuses.
Booker told The Associated Press in an interview for its "Ground Game" podcast that his campaign's internal metrics indicate he would finish in a "pretty exciting place" in the February 3 caucuses, but his Senate responsibilities could hamper his ability to remain competitive.
"It's going to be a challenging four weeks into caucus for us where our strengths are going to be under assault, so to speak, from all the things going on in our country right now," he said. "Our weaknesses are going to be seen because, again, if we can't raise more money in this final stretch, we won't be able do the things that other campaigns with more money can do to really show presence."
Booker said his campaign is under "major pressure" to bring in donations, which would allow him to remain on the airwaves in the coming weeks if he cannot be in Iowa.
"We have real demanding things going on in Washington," he said. "I swore an oath to do this job and I'm going to do it."

As the old curmudgeon always told me, “what goes around, comes around.”
“”””””Should this nitwit Corey be using the phrase big blow under any circumstances?””””””””””
I’m sure it’s not the first time he said “big blow”.
Booger still has a campaign? Who knew? Maybe its in the name of his imaginary friend T-bone
His, Booker’s attempt to be elected.
Con Man Cory is already making excuses.

“Cory Booker says impeachment trial could be a “big blow” to his presidential campaign”
