New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie told Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor” on Thursday that President Donald Trump’s executive order pausing immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries “wasn’t communicated … in the right way governmentally” to ensure smooth implementation, which gave the Left the opportunity to mischaracterize the policy.
“It wasn’t explained in the right way, and it wasn’t communicated — it seems to me — in the right way governmentally to make sure that it was implemented smoothly in the beginning, and so a lot of the way the left has now mischaracterized what I think is a policy that really has moved the country in the right direction. It was allowed to mischaracterize it, because it wasn’t rolled out in the correct way,” Christie said. […]
Christie said the rollout was “probably” a rookie mistake and that the administration didn’t anticipate that the policy implementation would devolve into hysteria. …

And what would have been the right way that the left and media would have applauded?
The fat f*** has spoken.
He’s still mad that he was removed from the Transition Team.
Even if Trump had had a similar press conference like he did when he announced the Supreme Court Justice Nominee it would have made NO difference in the eyes of the liberal media..they want Trump destroyed no matter what..they are for open borders, Trump isn’t
Many people here do not like Chris Christie personally, but on this, he is fully correct. I want the Trump Team to learn from this event early on.
Christie has a point. And these treasonous Dems are a big factor in the problem. If Sessions was in place as AG he would have been working this with DHS and there would probably be less problems.
Oh so helpful, put your criticism out for enemedia to exploit. Just like sucking to 0 after TS Sandy.
Christie is a fat slob, moron and traitor and he won’t win anymore elections or get any cabinet posts or appointments.
The guy has always been a big government anti-gun puke fascist prosecutor.
So what was the right way to communicate it? “Now boys and girls we need to walk real slowly and get outside the classroom and then start running home before those bad birds (muslims) get you. “
What if there was an imminent plot he broke up? NOBODY ever asks that.
Some people think they know everything. Trump and Giuliani are master plotters and planners. I don’t know exactly why they did it the way that they did, but I know they did it purposely.
What do you think all the advisers would have said? Do this, do that, a big blind-men-with-the-elephant powwow, wasting time and not knowing the reasons for things.
A little trust, folks.
Fat slob may have a point. But fat slob is putting it out to the enemedia, so fat slob is on the wrong team and helping the commies.
If fat slob wanted to help Trump and what’s left of the country, he would have talked to Trump privately. But no, fat slob wants to endear himself to the enemy.
Blah, blah, blah, and I want the status quo to continue in DC.
He should have banned all immigration for 1 year. We need a pause.
In what way is he “fully correct”?
The left cannot be placated, bottom line.
Trump admin doesn’t even have a full cabinet yet.
And if the order was rolled out “in the correct way”, do you think the left would have gone any less apeshit over it?
One more time I am glad that Christie wasn’t picked for anything.
Not rookie. Bull-in-the-china-shop style, no finesse. Ain't gonna work.
yes, it could have had more ‘explanation’ but quite frankly it is only the very first and a very small step at that
there will be plenty of time for more explanations when DJT gets to steps 4, 5, and 6 or whatever
these danagerously-indoctrinated aliens need to be repatriated (deported, sent home) ASAP. President Trump can “explain” that when he gets there.....(to anyone so damned stupid as to not realize how endangered they are with Islamicists inside their own communities and neighborhoods)
Not really, I watched the interfiew and he was giving constructive feedback and not bitter at all. He wasn’t offered the AG job and had nothing but good to say about Sen. Sessions and that he and President Trump talk regularly.
Sorry Christie haters, but he’s a good man and who knows where he might end up.
