New Jersey Democrat Sen.Cory Booker announced Monday he’s leaving the 2020 presidential race.
“It’s with a full heart that I share this news-I’m suspending my campaign for president,” he tweeted.
“To my team, supporters, and everyone who gave me a shot — thank you. I am so proud of what we built, and I feel nothing but faith in what we can accomplish together.”
Booker’s exit comes just weeks before the primary season begins in New Hampshire and Iowa, and the day before the seventh Democratic primary debate, for which he did not qualify.
“It was a difficult decision to make, but I got in this race to win, and I’ve always said I wouldn’t continue if there was no longer a path to victory,” he said in a video announcing his withdrawal.
Democratic candidate Marianne Williamson left the race Friday.

Oh my, how will America every survive the loss of “Spartacus?”
It will survive just fine, thanks much.
I’ll step up.
I AM SPARTACUS!!!!!!!!
now get him to leave the senate.
Leave the country i prefer..
I love you Spartacus!
Now get nailed.
He came to the realization that if he stays in the race, he won’t be in DC and able to vote for removal of President Trump. I expect the “trial” to take about 2 days before the vote is taken and Trump prevails over the deep state scum; although it should only take about 2 minutes to have a recorded vote for acquittal on all Articles of Impeachment. If an actual trial takes place, the first witness called by Trump’s representation and sworn to tell the truth should be pencil-neck “Shift”.
According to what the news is saying the Democrat senators will be required to be in their seats in DC during the trial. In fact, they are saying that Pelosi delayed things in order to keep them off the campaign trail and stop them from competing with Biden.
So basically since he needs to go be useless in the impeachment trial, he no longer has enough free time to be useless on the campaign trail.
It would be nice if all of them would feel the same, and Trump could run unopposed.
Booker found America wasn’t clamoring for the second black President. Been there, done that. At 13% of the population, their turn shouldn’t come around again for 5 more Presidents.
I say that time shouldn’t come ANY # of presidents, UNLESS THE GUY IS QUALFIED, not just because “He’s black”.
Sorry, but who’s this guy? Get the hook…
He has plenty of time now to do what he said he did when he spoke to congress. You may not know! Well, he said after graduating from high school he and a couple of friends drove from New Jersey to Hawaii. Awesome,right.
Delusions of grandeur come to a well deserved dead end.
NOT a deserved enough end for me..
The man has no path to sanity… and I’m sure he will give back what ever donations he has left.
Did he even HAVE any sanity, to get back on the path to gaining?
Who ???
‘no path to victory’…. isn’t that the DNC’s 2020 presidential campaign slogan ?
Well it seems the Leftist Clown Car is yet again one Clown lighter.
When did Cory ever have a path to victory? Other than in his fantasy dreams!
