Chris Christie says he's thinking of taking a more aggressive approach during the next Republican presidential primary debate.
During an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" Monday night, the New Jersey governor and presidential candidate told Fallon that he's considering going "nuclear" if he's relegated to the sidelines during the next GOP face-off, which will be moderated by CNN later this month.
Christie's return to late-night TV comes as he's been struggling to gain momentum in the crowded Republican field in the summer polls. During the interview, Fallon, who often jokes about Christie during his monologue, pressed the famously brash governor, suggesting that he's been overshadowed by billionaire businessman and Republican front-runner Donald Trump.
Christie had several notable clashes with his opponents during the Fox News debate and his performance was generally well-reviewed, but Trump nonetheless dominated coverage of the event. Christie said he went 20 questions without being asked a question.
"Stay tuned on Sept. 16th," Christie told Fallon, "We may be changing tactics. You know, if I get to like 15 questions in a row -— count 'em at home — if I get to 15 in a row (where he's not called on), you're going to go 'Uh oh, he's going to go nuclear now.'"
"That's what I'm talking about!" Fallon said. "That's what we want to see!"

Now there’s a wager I would not touch, my FRiend.
EVERYBODY except Cruz, Caron, and Fiorina is going to try and take Trump out at th next debate.
THEY HAVE TO.
They are all “Establishment”, and the establishment is creaming for Trump’s head on a platter.
There is a LOT of money to be made by the people behind them, WIN OR LOSE, and Trump is threatening the Gravy Train, just as Sander’s is endangering Establishment Democrats from pocketing Million$ each, as well.
Whatever. ...yuh fat pig....
well done.
Christie is going for his Highlander moment.
“I have something to say: it’s better burn out, than to fade away.”
LOL
They are all also career politicians, and I have little doubt that irrespective of their political stance they are all united in their resentment of ‘outsiders’ messing in their game. Usually they are able to use their experience in front of a camera or crowd to handily dismiss the campaigns of non-career politicians. That they've tried to do this to Trump, and he's still kicking their collective butts is I'm sure very hard for them to swallow.
How many doughnuts would he have to eat to go nuclear?
Just can’t stand him.
Cue Samuel L Jackson from pulp fiction please.
If Blimpie Cream explodes fat will be everywhere.
What is fat boi gonna do? Fart? He’s a worthless RINO wuss!
Indeed
I thought he had his stomach stapled (or whatever the procedure is called these days). Didn’t work.
What’s the Outlaw Jersey Whale going to do? Wolf down a dozen bean burritos an hour before air time and cut loose in the middle of the debate?
That’s an awful lot of blubber to go flying in the explosion ...
