Sen. Amy Klobuchar split the last week between the impeachment trial and campaigning.
While she's stuck in Washington for late nights during the impeachment trial, she said she'll continue holding"tele-town halls," claiming that strategy has already paid back in dividends with the campaign reporting that up to 12,000 Iowans dialed into that statewide call Wednesday night.
Democratic presidential candidate and Sen. Amy Klobuchar speaks at a campaign town hall meeting in Mason, Iowa, Jan. 20, 2020."I have this real job, and then I'm in the arena and then I'm actually taking on the Trump administration, and all of their shenanigans and behavior," Klobuchar said."I think it’s actually a good thing, as when I sit in that chamber and I look over at my colleagues, I think about what I say on the campaign trail, this is decency check.
Looking to Iowa and New Hampshire, Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said he is positioned to beat Trump in November because of his campaign’s ability to organize, raise grassroots money and speak to the American working class, but Klobuchar said on"This Week," that recent elections could prove him otherwise. "I know I don't have the highest name ID compared to all these other people I'm running against, or the billions of dollars that two of my opponents have, what we've got is grit," Klobuchar said."I'm still standing and it's because of what I bring with me."
