I think it’s a great switch since Pence will have to be dealing with some of these people for years as VP. Might as well get in the thick of it now.

Chris Christie is a real asset among great assets. But where to put him?

[Red Badger]

Good move, Pence doesn’t have the NJ problem that Christie has...................

[Bratch]

The team didn’t disclose why Pence replaced Christie.

A bridge too far?

I saw some blowback about Christie, that he was bringing Bushie and Romney types onboard. That got changed PDQ.

Christie is now a vice chairman of the team, along with former House speaker Newt Gingrich, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, former Republican presidential hopeful Ben Carson, and U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions, the team announced Friday.

It looks like a great team. Just yesterday, I was wondering where LTG Flynn might fit in. I met him while he was still active duty--he is a really sharp man. And he understands the foreign challenges for the US.

[House Atreides]

I personally am glad Christie has been eased out sine I don’t find him to be trustworthy. Pence is GREAT!

[xzins]

I wondered if the conviction of Christie assistants would hurt him.

Apparently, someone thought it would. At a minimum, they wanted to avoid the appearance of evil. That was one of the reasons for the departure of Paul Manafort, although Kelly Ann Conway was the right choice to lead the portion of the Trump campaign that she led.

Two people who should not be on Trumps list are Christie and Corker, both RINOs.

Pence proved he was a steady, passionate force who read conservative principles to perfection. His years as a talk radio host gave him communication skills that will make the case for our movement. I thank God we have him.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Well, after all, Pence seriously out-ranks everyone as VP.

[forgotten man]

Chris Cristie is a gun grabber. Don’t trust him.

[CivilWarBrewing]

I will NEVER forget Christie’s “Me me me” speech.. EVER. Glad Trump dumped Humpty Dumpty.

[Strac6]

A big ta-doo about nothing.

[Reno89519]

Seems reasonable and nothing suggests less role for Chris Christie. I read the details on the transition team and am very happy to see the caliber of the whole team that Trump has assembled.

[panzerkamphwageneinz]

Mark Levin was saying last night how horrible it was for Christie to have this role and that he was placing RINOS in position to damage Trump.

That didn’t take long.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Bridge gate?

[HollyB]

Great switch. There needs to be serious monitoring so we don’t fall back into the same ol’, same ol’.

[trisham]

I’m thankful for Christie’s support of Trump. Beyond that, it’s up to Trump to make wise decisions going forward.

[NYRepublican72]

Makes sense as Pence is no longer campaigning and is the VP-Elect.
