Christie says he plans to stay in GOP race through convention
cnn ^ | Nov 26, 2023 | Aaron Pellish

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said he plans to stay in the Republican primary race through next summer’s nominating convention, dismissing a recent CNN poll that shows him trailing former President Donald Trump and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley in New Hampshire — a state he’s invested heavily in winning.

n an interview with ABC News, Christie said his campaign will “focus most of our time and energy” on New Hampshire for the time being, but “our next two focuses … will be South Carolina and Michigan.”

Christie also called out Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for not aggressively criticizing Trump despite his position as the clear frontrunner. He said attacks from all three could be the key to weakening Trump and opening a path for another candidate.

Shows he's in it only to be able to continue to attack Trump, and be some kind of spoiler for the election...

Considering he's polling above desanctimonious, he may actually push haley higher in 2nd place, and desanctus out of the race.

It’s how people like him make money. It’s not about what is best for the county.

His plan to win the nomination is centered around winning one state with no policy plan other than Not Trump? Winning formula for sure. Who is paying him to stay around and be humiliated?

Who’s funding Krispy Kreme?

Soros, McConnell’s PAC, Big Tech?

Obviously, the defense contractors are pushing Nikki. But, who’s behind Krispy?

Photo....

Christie: I just love having you in my photo ops. You being one of the blacks and all that. Not that I wouldn’t still like you if you weren’t appealing to the black voters. I mean, with me it’s one, open mouth , two insert foot.

Actually, I think he’s staying in the race for all the free donuts and pizza at his campaign headquarters.
