If I was Christie, I would be a little worried. Donald likes Christie, but may think the Bridgegate matter remains unsettled. His children don’t think much of Chris, and have probably advised him not to put Christie at the helm of any department at this time.
He did work to convict Kushers dad
Here's a little something that may not be common knowledge outside of New Jersey:
Jared Kushner, Ivanka's husband, is the son of a prominent New Jersey real estate magnate named Charles Kushner. He was a powerful financial supporter of Democrats in New Jersey, including the former governor Jim McGreevey who competes with Anthony Weiner for the title of the most f#%&ed-up political figure in the nation over the last decade.
Charles Kushner was prosecuted and convicted for various crimes including illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion and witness tampering. He spent a year in prison and was disbarred from the practice of law.
The Federal prosecutor in the case was the U.S. Attorney for the District New Jersey at the time -- a fellow named Chris Christie.
I really don’t want to see Christie in their as chief of staff or any sort of policy-influencing position.
