Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie learned the drawbacks of ordinary life Thursday morning when he tried to bypass the TSA line and was denied entry to a special entrance at Newark Liberty International Airport, normally reserved for VIP guests, dignitaries and elected officials, according to a source familiar with the matter.
When Christie arrived at Terminal C in the airport with his New Jersey State Police detail and was taken to the entrance, which is located near the exit of the restricted area of the terminal, a Port Authority officer refused to let Christie use the special entrance, informing the former governor that he is no longer allowed to use it.
The source said that Christie had used the entrance recently, just before his eight-year term as governor ended earlier this week. He's been a private citizen for three days.

How does he have a police detail if he’s no longer governor?

Thanks usafa92. IOW, fake news. And being a fellow fat guy, I resisted the temptation of making some stupid joke, like, "he wouldn't fit through the VIP entrance." Ooops, posted this before I edited it out.

He has a New Jersey State Police detail and he is no longer governor. Why? Somebody on Twit (for what that's worth) said he gets it for six months, then no more. Sounds reasonable.
