Based on how he’s handled this crisis to date, it may really turn out to be Christie’s bridge to nowhere

He fired the people responsible, unequivocally denied any foreknowledge of their actions, and answered hostile questions from the media with concrete answers for over an hour on a televised press conference this morning.

His presidential dream has thankfully died, it was never that strong to begin with, but he could give lessons on the way to handle a scandle.

...he could give lessons on the way to handle a scandal.

Only Republicans and conservatives really have to know how to handle a scandal since the media will do all the heavy lifting for the Dems and liberals.

Really, it's only a scandal if the liberal media says it's a scandal.

My comments were related “to date”, i.e. previous to todays presser. Personally, I believe that he’s smart enough to not have joked about the lane closures had he known what his people had done, but it casts doubt on the leaders abilities when stuff like this happens on anyones team.

Time will tell whether firing one person after the stuff hits the fan is sufficient to offset prior acts. We’ve all seen this movie before.
