Ofcourse you can't gear down to compensate for the weight and drag of a trailer. But I do it all the time without a problem. I do recommend running a lower gear than what you may consider ideal for riding without a trailer. You should also have 2 brakes.
I've pulled my daughter and a load of groceries several times, abet much slower than without a trailer.
