Chris Christie claims he has 'a good chance' of landing a knockout blow against former President Trump 'under the brightest of lights'
Daily Mail ^ | 21 Apr 2023 | Geoff Earle

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is talking up his own ability to land a winning argument and even take down Donald Trump in the race for the White House.

Christie, who earlier this week leveled a 'porn star' attack on Trump while arguing Ron DeSantis wasn't conservative enough, made the comments on a trip to New Hampshire, a state central to his failed 2016 presidential campaign.

Christie, known as a political brawler, got asked whether other members of the Republican field were not 'physical enough' or lacked the 'aggressiveness' to take Trump down, on a day when he led the field in another new poll.

'Look, I know what I'm good at. I know how to articulate an argument. I know how to make it. I know how to land it. And I feel like I have the ideas that people are generally attracted to. So if you have those things, you have a good chance to be able to do it. No guarantees, but a good chance,' he told Fox News.

'That's the last piece ... lots of people can do things when the lights aren't the brightest. But when those lights get really bright and everybody's watching, can you perform or can't you? And that's a lot about what these races have to do with.'

Politico reported that Christie spoke to about three dozen former staff advisors, who could form a network if he jumps in the race.

'If we go forward, we want all of you to be with us,' he told the group. 'Thank you to all of you for everything you've already done for us. It's been really, really an amazing ride. And you know what? It might not just be over yet.'

If Trump got 80 million votes, the popping fresh dough boy would be lucky to get 30 million.

If the election came down to chubby and the worst demoncrap on the planet, I would still write in Trump or DeSantis.

Just post the photo of Christie and friends enjoying a public beach in private during the lockdown.

“When you listen to Christie talk about all of the wonderful things he will do for you, don’t forget all of the self-serving things he did to you.”

1. Christie is a ton of stupid. And he has been invited on my radio show several times. I would LOVE to debate him on conservatism, Disney, and all the rest. Instead, he hides behind his liberal friends at ABC and his RINO clapping seals.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) April 18, 2023

2. DeSantis understands we are in a culture war, and that corporatists are reaching into our legislatures, classrooms, and more, affirmatively making policy with their corporate funding, ESG, and DEI. Another example is Walmart, and how it is destroying Arkansas' school system.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) April 18, 2023

3. Asa Hutchinson, another RINO attacking DeSantis and Trump, rolled over. He did nothing. RINO's are too ignorant and/or gutless to take on these cultural issues and find it much easier to attack DeSantis and Trump, who are fearless.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) April 18, 2023

4. Christie left New Jersey a terrible mess, on every level. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is having to clear up after Hutchinson.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) April 18, 2023

5. We can no longer tolerate self-aggrandizing, do-nothing, unprincipled Republicans who bow to the media and corporate mob, and sell out the public.https://t.co/yNliMv0qd0— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) April 18, 2023

Yup. I would loudly campaign Xi himself before I would cast a vote for that backstabbing slob from NJ.

Christie ranks right up there with Asa Hutchinson, Mike Pence, Liz Cheney, and John Bolton.

The only thing Christie can win is the pie eating contest at the Iowa State Fair.
