Yes, I am in Sussex County in the People’s Republik of NJ. Christie is not a Trump. I used to like Christie, but now I feel he has transformed into a buffoon. About 3 years ago, he started acting like he was the king of NJ. The recent “bad beach optics” just reinforces that vision and will ensure a democrap governor will take control this November.
When people in Shewsbury had legitimate concerns when one of Christie’s buddies opened a drug rehab center next to an elementary school, he shouted at the crowd, “Much better than you have yelled at me over the last seven and a half years and I’ll ignore you just the way I ignored them”. It is just his arrogant attitude that burns me.
He hasn’t done much to improve his image, but I fear he will be the last governor we have to take on the teachers’ unions - the primary cause of NJ’s decline.
