On the day Sen. Cory Booker declared he was running in 2020, President Donald Trump said the New Jersey Democrat has "no chance" of taking the White House.

"I say no chance," Trump said of Booker's shot at the presidency in an interview with CBS News "Face the Nation" host Margaret Brennan, recorded Friday and to be broadcast in full on Sunday.


When pressed on his analysis, Trump responded: "Because I know him. He has no chance."

Booker officially announced his presidential campaign on Friday morning and then later spoke to reporters outside of his home in Newark.

When asked about Trump, Booker declined to call the president a racist and emphasized his campaign will not be about "who I'm against or what I'm against."

"I don’t know the heart of anybody,” Booker said when asked if Trump was a racist. “I’ll leave that to the Lord.”

As for the other Democrats to announce thus far, Trump said he is not worried about them either.

"So far, I don't see anybody. I don't — I'm not impressed with their group,"

Trump on Thursday weighed in on the field of 2020 Democratic challengers in an interview with the New York Times, saying that Sen. Kamala Harris had the best campaign rollout while also needling Sen. Elizabeth Warren about her claimed Native American heritage.
