'I'm going to miss seeing my friend @JulianCastro on the trail,' Senator Cory Booker tweeted.
Julian Castro began trending on Twitter across America on Thursday afternoon as voters and the remaining presidential candidates reacted to the former Housing and Urban Development secretary's decision to end his bid for the 2020 Democratic nomination.
"I've determined that it simply isn't our time," the former San Antonio mayor said in the clip."It's with profound gratitude to all of our supporters that I suspend my campaign for president today. I'm so proud of everything we've accomplished together. I'm going to keep fighting for an America where everyone counts—I hope you'll join me in that fight.
Castro launched his campaign in January 2019 but has struggled to stand out in the 2020 Democratic primary field, which had nearly 30 candidates at its peak. His exit, which comes a month before the Iowa caucuses kick off, leaves just 14 candidates left: Michael Bennet, Joe Biden, Michael Bloomberg, Cory Booker, Pete Buttigieg, John Delaney, Tulsi Gabbard, Amy Klobuchar, Deval Patrick, Tom Steyer, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Marianne Williamson and Andrew Yang.
