New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's endorsement of Donald Trump, which can only be described as stunning and shocking to the political world, will cause panic and chaos throughout the GOP establishment.
Here are some of the immediate results of the Christie move.
First, Christie's endorsement of Trump for president is devastating to the GOP establishment which was in virtual panic about the rise of Trump before Christie endorsed him and is now in a state of total panic behind the scenes.
Second, Christie's endorsement of Trump is a devastating blow to the conservative establishment, which views Trump as neither a legitimate Republican or a legitimate conservative (as I wrote in my most recent column for The Hill). The Christie move creates intense pressure on Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas), the conservative movement favorite whose candidacy would be devastated if Trump defeats him in his home state of Texas -- which is more likely today than yesterday. The Cruz candidacy was already showing signs of fading before Sen. Marco Rubio's (Fla.) strong performance in the last debate and Christie's endorsement of Trump....

GOP should be on suicide watch...
Yeah we read this yesterday!!! ~ yawn ~
Will there be panic over Sen. Session’s endorsement of Trump?
Budowsky was an aide to former Sen. Lloyd Bentsen (D-Texas) and former Chief Deputy Majority Whip Bill Alexander (D-Ark.).
That’s ridiculous to try and blame Christie for Romney threatening to enter the election. It’s because Trump has already beat everyone they have thrown at him.
This is better than a daytime soap opera!
Yep after I mail in my primary ballot, I am switching to Independent.
The GOPe couldn’t start a movement with a box full of ExLax.
Show it to me.
The GOPe couldn’t start a movement with a container ship full of Chinese ExLax.
Not sure I get why they are doing everything in their power to kneecap their front runner. Contrast this with how Clinton is being treated and even Obama in ‘08. I find it very telling that not even one person in leadership supports Trump who has a majority of the electorate right now. Very telling
Well then, search doesn’t work.
sorry....
I haven’t posted a thread in many years without doing a search. Period.
Very wise move. Many will follow.
GOPe in death rattle.
Yeah, well Sessions endorsing Trump will put them on suicide watch. Romney would only make a fool of himself and split the Rubio vote.
Won’t matter. Would be like a gnat “attacking” a bulldozer.
Best endorsement ever - Jeff Sessions puts on a “Make America Great Again” hat!
