“How much of the presidential candidate’s personal life factor into people’s decision because people feel like you being single could affect your chances?” host Charlamagne tha God asked Booker.

“I think if Donald Trump is elected president, at this point with the personal life he has, then anybody can,” Booker responded.

“You would be the third single president I think?” Charlamagne tha god asked.

“First of all, there’s two more years until I might fulfill this duty, so give me some time,” Booker responded. “My girlfriend might listen to this.”

“You don’t want to marry somebody now?” the host said.
