I don't think that will happen because they are both from the tri-state area and Christie brings no balance to the ticket.

First consideration for the nomination may mean that Trump has to select a VEEP whose delegates can put him over the 1237 mark (probably Kasich...not Cruz).

Second may mean a VEEP who can get the GOPe off his back and bring unity to the party.

Next will be a VEEP who can bring votes from needed areas of the country and/or blocs of voters not already drawn to Trump.

Lastly, if Trump is certain he can win the General...he will select a VEEP who brings strength to his management style and an ability to advise him on matters political (including dealing with Congress).
