It’s not just Trump. Christie’s gunning for DeSantis, too.

...before entering the presidential race, Christie took aim at DeSantis over the Florida governor’s ongoing war with Disney.

“That’s not the guy I want sitting across from President Xi [Jinping] ... or sitting across from [President Vladimir] Putin and trying to resolve what’s happening in Ukraine, if you can’t see around a corner [Disney CEO] Bob Iger created for you,” Christie told Semafor in April. “I don’t think Ron DeSantis is a conservative, based on his actions towards Disney.”

Christie is gunning for everybody because he is at the bottom of the heap, he cannot go any lower.

He does weigh himself down pretty much.

Right. Bannon was one of the key players at the Trump Tower meeting I referenced in my prior post — after the “Access Hollywood” tape was released.

According to one post-election account of that meeting I’ve seen, Bannon was the only one at the meeting who was confident Trump would win the election.

Trump has recently spoken in support of Disney, Charlie Crist, Andrew Cuomo...

Trump trashed Disney.

Link

Trump saying Cuomo was the fourth worst on COVID deaths is not Trump supporting Cuomo.

Trump endorsing DeSantis in Florida in 2022 is not Trump supporting Crist.

No matter which was you turn Christie, you could never call him a “dwarf”.
If Christie was hugging Chairman Maobama while on a rotisserie, for how many degrees would you be able to see Mao’s pale blue uniform? I say about 45 degrees.

"Even Charlie Crist, a Democrat, did a good job."

"Even Cuomo did better."

Trump gave the media these quotes. Context does not matter; headlines and soundbites do. That's the way it works.

Because of Christie, no Republican will ever be a governor in New Jersey again.

Bad as Christie was, New Jersey Democrats are real pieces of work. Jim "flim-flam" Florio ultimately led to Christine Todd-Whitman, and she was an upgrade! The baseline in Jersey is a Tom Kean establishment type. Occasional you get a truly pro-life rep (Chris Smith), but mostly it is Keans and Whitmans. Christie was actually better than the baseline, but no need to take him national.

“Do you begrudge him a seat at the table?”

He’d need at least 2 seats

I see your rotisserie point and it’s well taken.

My point derives from comparisons like, back in the day, “The American League is the Yankees and the Seven Dwarfs” (i.e., the Indians, Senators, A’s, Orioles, etc).

This year, it’s “Trump and the Seven Dwarfs”, with Christie needing to take Desantis down so christie can be top dwarf.

No. I got your point, and feigned offense that you were calling the Dough Boy a dwarf, b/c even if you lay him on his side, he is “taller” than most. lol

He said the exact samet thing months ago: “DeSantis is not a conservative.” We told you NeverTrumpers that he would be going after not just Trump but also DeSantis as he has already done. But ya’ll thought it was funny as long if the plan was to just to take out Trump which it wasn’t and still isn’t.

Well it sure is good Chris isn’t on the top of the heap or they would all be crushed.
