      Make no mistake, she and the rest of MSM are treating him well because he's opposing their arch enemy Donald Trump. But if Christie gets the nomination, they will turn on him before you can say fugetaboutit. Just look at George W. Bush. Oh they love him now because he's anti-Trump, but don't forget these are the same people who called him Nazi 8 years earlier.

    I am a declared Democrat. Voted for Bernie twice, followed by Clinton and Biden in the general elections. The fact that I can disagree with what Chris Christie says policy-wise, and still feel inspired by him speaks volumes. Not to oversell him; to me, he just seems like any of the dozens of normal Americans I've met throughout my life. He isn't a freak-show attention hog. He isn't a weirdo, obsessed with off-the-wall "culture wars" (as far as I can tell). He just seems like a normal American, who happens to have different policy beliefs than I do. I'm going to vote by policy. But if he keeps this level of statesmanship up, I would never be ashamed to call him my president during a Christie presidential administration.

      @rosejack7738 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry, I do understand he speaks for the truth now, but at the end of the day, he was once one of Donald Trump's lackeys. It's very hard to trust the words of the MAGA Republican Party, but I believe that there are lots of Republicans who are still normal! I can also honestly say that among the Republican competitors, I considered him to have the courage to go against the playbook of MAGA extremism and slap it on their faces! Being skeptical and not giving full trust to people who once were on the wrong side... For me, it's just normal. Anyway, Mr. Christie earns my respect for this one, and hopefully he can stand firm for what is right this time 'til the end, even if he may not be lucky to be the Republican nominee, just in case.

Dare I say it actually gives me some hope for the future of our government that I haven't felt in QUITE a while. As a left leaning centrist, I would consider voting for him over Biden, I just need to know that he will help to start eradicating the MAGA loons already actively mixed in our government and not bend to their will. The country needs to get back to someone who encourages decency, not just blind loyalty like the mob.

What I continually have to remind myself is that they all betrayed their responsibility to the constitution and to basic truth by supporting Trump. Christie isn’t strong enough to wrestle them back from the precipice they are on. My conclusion is that I’ll listen, but will do nothing to empower them; it’s still a fight between democracy and would be authoritarianism. Here’s my other fear Christie does a better job showcasing Biden’s weaknesses as s leader rather than Trump’s and mutes Biden’s support on Election Day.

      Mclovin first of all you are so very disrespectful in criticizing the state of New Jersey. Chris Christie has no skeletons in his closet he is an honest man, husband, father, and excellent prosecutor never lost a case in state of New Jersey. Unlike Trump he admits when he makes mistakes. As for me 2012 speaker of the house stated Paul Ryan, believes Chris Christie is an excellent candidate to be president, he is a unique candidate who will attack Trump at a different angle that no one has ever done.

It sucks but it is what it is. Trump's an a-hole but Biden is -with all due respect to the man's career and position - WAY too old to be POTUS. Go retire with your hot GMILF wife, Joe!

I have often listened to what Governor Chris Christie has said because, at least in old fashioned terminology, I like the cut of his job... what I just witnessed in this interview was, while typical of Christie, extremely refreshing, well thought out, and clearly displayed a no holds barred Republican candidate for the presidency...he doesn't mince words, freely admits mistakes, or even at a higher standard, accepts responsibility in the fashion of, "The buck stops here."
