President Donald Trump's interaction with Russian President Vladimir Putin was a "disaster," "detrimental to the country" and the strongest evidence yet that "the president (should) step down."

Note to Christie Whitman: Sorry, but your political disagreement - and that is all it is - concerning Trump’s meeting with Putin, and anything said there, has no legal or constitutional claim it can make on any President.

I remember when people in the media proclaimed her the future of the GOP 20 years ago.
Perfectly put.
The party needs to eject those that say this type of crap.
You’re either with the party or fighting against it. Kick her RINO ass out!
When any New Jersey politician is called a Republican, the name should be in quotes or have a parenthetical question mark.
Voting for Trump IS choosing country over party, Christine.
And multiply that by 10 when the name has Christie in it somewhere.
Unfit for office, like being in an Arizona hospital with brain cancer?
