Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie said Tuesday he would have prosecuted former President Trump over his mishandling of classified documents and alleged efforts to block the results of the 2020 election.
“I would have prosecuted the documents case, absolutely,” Christie said in an interview on Newsmax’s “The Balance.” “I would not have prosecuted the case in New York, and I said that at the time.”
“I would have prosecuted the Jan. 6 matter, but I would not have prosecuted the Atlanta matter against Donald Trump; I think it was unnecessary to do so,” he added.
Christie, who is the former governor of New Jersey and a former federal prosecutor, said that while he believes the Justice Department has a two-tiered system of justice, he would not pardon Trump.
“Donald Trump will have to rise or fall based upon the proofs that are presented at his trial,” he said. “Now, if I felt like a trial was unfair, then I would consider it.”
“But, If I felt like he got a fair trial by a jury of his peers, which is what every American is entitled to, along with the presumption of innocence, which he is entitled to as well, then we make those judgments at the time,” the former governor added.
Christie entered the GOP presidential primary race in early June and has been vocal in his criticism of Trump since. Last month, Christie pushed back on Trump’s claims he was indicted for the American people and called the former president a “liar and a coward.”
Last week, Trump, was indicted by a Georgia grand jury over an alleged scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in the state, marking his fourth indictment this year.
