'A national embarrassment': Chris Christie scorches Trump's legal team; "We cannot continue to act as if something happened here that didn't happen"

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie criticized President Donald Trump’s legal team Sunday morning, calling its continued legal challenges and allegations of widespread electoral fraud “a national embarrassment.”

On ABC’s “This Week,” Christie repeatedly chastised Trump’s lawyers for alleging fraud in interviews and press conferences despite their lawsuits pleading otherwise, and called for their legal challenges to end.

“The legal team has been a national embarrassment… They allege fraud outside the courtroom, but when they go inside the courtroom, they don’t plead fraud and they don’t argue fraud,” Christie said.

He also called out Trump lawyer Sidney Powell, criticizing her for accusing Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp of committing a crime, only to be “unwilling to go on TV and defend and lay out the evidence that she supposedly has.”

“I voted for [Trump] twice,” Christie added, “but elections have consequences, and we cannot continue to act as if something happened here that didn’t happen. You have an obligation to present the evidence, [but] the evidence has not been presented.”

Trump’s legal team, led by former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, has said without evidence that millions of votes in multiple swing states were switched from Trump to President-elect Joe Biden, and has falsely alleged that the amount of votes tallied in cities including Detroit and Philadelphia exceeded the number of registered voters living in them.

One of the lawsuits Giuliani led in Michigan used data that reflected towns in Minnesota.

Christie also pointed to conservative media figures who have criticized Trump’s legal team for their refusal to provide evidence.

“If you are unwilling to come forward and present the evidence, it must mean the evidence doesn’t exist,” Christie said, referring to Fox News’ Host Tucker Carlson’s recent criticism of Trump’s legal team along similar lines.

Like the Goodyear Blimp, he was full of nothing but hot air. Giuliani is the one who has been the pleasant surprise in all of this. We should’ve nominated him in 2008. At least he’d fight to win and had beat an incompetent Black incumbent officeholder. He’d have curbstomped Zero.

My brother worked for Delaware north and was controller for MetLife stadium. Chris Christie would spend $50K on a suite and food and liquor for he and friends for one game.. Somebody subpoenaed his bills one year when he was under investigation . My brother told me back in 2012 that Christie was corrupt.

Forbearance is a rare commodity. Especially with ego freaks.

let’s see YOUR investigations which found no fraud Chrisie!@

Yet you call the lawyers liars BEHIND their backs? Can’t even accuse them of lying to their faces?

What’s that? You didn’t do an investigation? Then zip it- you’re intentionally hurting our party- with ‘friends’ like you- who the heck needs enemies? Go party with mitt and jeb and leave our party alone in the meantime- thanks

With so many supposedly straight-up people slithering out in opposition to Trump’s battle, I am reminded, for some reason, of Hawthorne’s short story, Young Goodman Brown, about a young man who travels through the dark forest one night and, in a clearing, stumbles upon all the trusted, venerated leaders of the community, gathered for a satanic rite of initiation of himself and his wife. Not knowing whether it is a dream or real, he is scarred for the rest of his life.

The Goodyear Blimp is filled with Helium, not hot air.

Christy was okay when he was cutting Union pensions, vetoing spending bills and not raising taxes. I know the standard is low here but I'd like to know who you think, in recent memory, did a better job for us NJ taxpayers.

Chris Christie has a snowball’s — er — beachball’s chance in hell to ever see the presidency from anywhere but the peanut gallery...
