Former Republican Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey said his trip on Monday to New Hampshire, the state that holds the first primary and votes second overall in the GOP presidential nominating calendar, will help him decide whether to "get into the battle" and launch a 2024 GOP presidential campaign.
Christie said that a key to that decision will be whether he sees a pathway to victory over former President Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Christie will headline a town-hall style event Monday evening at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, which for over two decades has been a must-stop for actual or potential White House contenders from both major parties. Word of the town hall and a dinner later in the evening with close friends and supporters in the Granite State was first reported earlier this month by Fox News.

Christie told Fox News Digital ahead of his trip that he plans "to go up there and talk to people in New Hampshire — who I know are the best-informed voters in the country about things that I think are important in the world and in our country right now — and to see how they react to that, and see that what they think about things that I think are important."
When asked if a positive response from voters will further encourage him to run again for the White House, Christie said "there’s no question that if you find that you’re connecting with people that makes you more encouraged to want to get out there and try to get into the battle."

Run for dog catcher? Pretty sure he couldn’t even waddle for dog catcher. Unless he lost those 300lbs of qwap in his head. Then maybe.
Those who like Chris Wray love his BFF Chris Christie. That’s how modern US Christians roll.
I can save him a lot of truouble.
Absolutely not.
Christie is a PoS and his head is so fat and swelled up with pride that he can’t see straight.
Here, I'll help you with that decision.
There is NO pathway for you to the WH. None. Nada. Nil.
The fat man has illusions of grandeur. What a farce. Christy is an asshole who is despised by the American people. He’d be lucky to get 0.01 percent of a vote.
Chirstie is the clear outlier; his numbers were so bad it made Hillary Clinton's numbers look good and she lost. Looking at the last few years he has ridden both sides of the political fence and offered nothing beyond talking about headlines, sniping at Trump and his supporters, and no policy statements. He has generated extensive political baggage for both Republican and Democratic contenders to use on him.
Christie in 2024 is in the same position Hillary was in 2016. He has high name recognition, low favorability, recent instead of old baggage, and almost no room to improve. Realistically his chances are between none and hell is in no hurry to freeze over for him.
Christie is the reason they’ll never be another Republican governor in New Jersey, ever!
Will he stay in for the first primary, or bail ahead of time like Kakkling Kamala?
Challenge them to an eating contest.
Ha! At least Cristy wouldn’t wouldn’t lose to Trump
or DeSantis.
There is no path for Chrispy Creme.
This fat piece of crap was the governor of my state.
This turd once said “Illegal aliens haven’t committed any crimes’’.
I very seriously doubt that this Uniparty hack would peel any support away from Trump. Haley and RdS would be the most affected if he runs.
“2024 Watch: Chris Christie ‘trying to figure out’ if there’s a pathway to beating Trump, DeSantis”
ROTFLOL!
Chris, let me explain the answer to that question in simple words: “NO” ...
Chris Christie is very sharp and quick on his feet. He can make Desanctimonius look horrible and totally make him look like a light qVe live on stage. That might earn him a spot in a second Trump administration
Wait until Babylon Bee gets ahold of this title!!!!
He might as well stay on the path from the kitchen to the bathroom.
Haha yea right. Who would actually stand a chance against Trump? Thomas is probably the only one I would go for..
