Chris Christie: 'If I Run...'; Explains Why Trump Opponent Has to Be 'Fearless'

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a former Donald Trump supporter, may be setting himself up as an alternative to Trump’s presidential re-run.

Speaking at a town hall at St. Anselm College in Goffstown, New Hampshire on Monday, Christie said whoever takes on Trump must be “fearless” and skillful on the debate stage:

“You better have somebody on that stage who can do to him what I did to Marco [Rubio], because that’s the only thing that’s gonna defeat Donald Trump,” Christie said, recalling the 2016 primary debate where he called out Rubio’s “inexperience,” as indicated by Rubio’s “memorized 25-second” speeches. “And that means you gotta have the skill to do it, and that means you have to be fearless, because he (Trump) will come at you, and right at you.” […]

Christie dropped out of the presidential primary in February 2016 after his sixth-place finish in New Hampshire’s primary. …

Fat boy is a glutton for punishment!! 2024 cycle will be similar. He has zero respect outside of (part of) New Joisey.

Nowhere do we hear Christie talk about how he’ll stand between you and the DC crowd to protect you from them or how he would put America first.

Instead, it’s like he’s auditioning to get fat cats to send and keep sending him enough campaign cash so he can be the go-to guy all along the way in going after Trump 24/7, so he can also go from one swanky hotel to another and stuff his face along the way nonstop.

That’s a perfect illustration of Christie. He never changed in seven years; an apt example of the Biblical maxim of leopards not changing their spots.

Christie, go stuff your face so we don’t have to hear the garbage emanating from it.

About all he could successfully run for is Taco Bell, and with his lard ass that’s really iffy.

How’s the lap band surgery working, fatso? You’re bigger than the Chinese balloon, and have twice as much gas.

Nadler owns the record on that one(during the nineties). His head was a giant chin.

Fat ass Lou Costello look-a-like f’ing RINO.

He won’t even make it to the primaries.

At least Costello (born Cristillo) was a basketball player and amateur boxer in his youth, and worked as a stuntman at Hal Roach Studios. Christie seems to be a lifetime lawyer and politician after high school.

If he ran he’d be out of breath.

Thanks. I didn't know Lou Costello was an amateur boxer.I always loved those two "Abbot & Costello''. Loved their show. Used to watch as a kid. "Mr. Fields'', "Hillary Brooke''(hubba hubba) "Mike The Cop'' and "Mr Batchalagooop''' and Joe Besser as "Stinky''.

Christie is not going to be a happening thing when it comes to the 2024 Presidential election. The only reason he is currently being given a voice and any media support is because he criticizes Trump and can therefore be considered a reliable and “principled” Republican who will fold at the first sign of a challenge by the left or their media mouth-pieces.

Christie was hoping for the VP spot, or another political career-advancing position when Trump was won the nomination in 2016, so he switched his allegiance to Trump, only to switch it back when he thought the wind was blowing the other way. As always, he chose poorly and continues to do so to this day. Much like Romney, Christie is a media hound and will say what the left requires to make those Sunday news-show rounds when they need a Republican to criticize Trump.

Maye Christi is undecided because Soros hasn’t agreed to fund his campaign yet.

Sounds like the bottom line to me.
