Chris Christie officially joined the race for the GOP White House nomination Tuesday—giving frontrunner Donald Trump a rival more outspoken than most. The former New Jersey governor, as expected, filed paperwork for his candidacy Tuesday and he plans to formally announce the bid at a town hall-style event in New Hampshire Tuesday evening, the New York Times reports. Christie, who dropped out of the 2016 race and endorsed Trump soon after a disappointing sixth-place finish in the New Hampshire primary, broke with the former president over his false claims that the 2020 election was rigged and has become one of Trump’s most vocal Republican critics.
While rivals including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis have largely steered clear of directly attacking Trump, Christie has called him a loser, slammed him for failing to deliver on his promises as president, and accused him of inciting the Capitol riot, the Times reports. Christie sees himself as the candidate best positioned to take on Trump in the GOP primaries and appeal to independent voters in a general election against President Biden, CNN reports.
“I’m not dumb. The way to win is to beat the guy who’s ahead,” he said in a recent podcast interview, per the AP. “And so what would a campaign look like? A campaign would look like a direct frontal challenge to Donald Trump trying to return to the presidency.”
Chris probably shouldn’t be calling anyone a hog……..
like stacey abrams, this land whale will try to “run” – but will need to be towed to go anywhere
Didn’t Ann Coulter say he was the ideal candidate ?
Christie is the GOP’s great white whale. Thar he blows! Not that kind of blow, the other kind. And Trump is Captain Ahab out to get revenge on krispie creme. Blubber, tons and tons of blubber anyone.
And the Bush clan can help you doughnut boy.
BTW don’t you have a beach to close? You’re gonna need a lot of room for your carcass.
Too much to read on someone I’ll never vote for!
Using Chris Christie and “run” in the headline…..
This article must be from “The Babylon Bee”….
I’m with TRF. Too much to read for no reason.
Can you imagine the Air Force One stair videos? They’d have to re-paint a C-5…
He pulled this crap before. I recall Trump saying that Christy’s pissed at him, because Christy wanted a position in his cabinet. Fat boy also had lap band surgery. I may have to sit out this election.
“I’m not dumb.” Christy said in a recent podcast.
I beg to differ, Christy is that dumb.
(I didn’t have to read the article to come to that conclusion).

Whut, as a big cookie jar???
he puts the rhino in the rino party
Please clap.
By design, he’s the designated GOPee “Trump hatchet man.” I’m gonna enjoy watching The Donald make mince meat out of him. It’ll do wonders for this fat RINO slob’s waistline. And if Christie went blackface, you’d mistake him for Alvin Bragg.
Since Christy chooses to do this, I feel free to root for his impending fatal heart attack. I hope it’s on a stage, and he rolls off it before they can stop his momentum.
Comedy gold, Jerry, gold!!
