Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is thinking about another presidential run in 2024, putting him in a head-to-head competition with Donald Trump for the Republican nomination.
After appearing on “Real Time” Friday night, he joined the show’s host Bill Maher, CNN anchor
Chris Wallace and BBC News correspondent Katty Kay for an “Overtime” talk in which viewers submit questions. The question posed Christie: It’s rumored you’re considering another presidential run in 2024. Is there any truth to that?
“Sure,” Christie said without the slightest hesitation. His answer was so quick that Maher said, “Oh, I love that. I’m telling you, this show’s rubbing off on him. He’s getting very loose.”
“Yeah. That’s me. I never had the reputation of being bold. [I’m a] wallflower type,” Christie joked. “He should. I mean, why not? Because we need a normal Republican,” Maher said. He did wonder, however, if he had a chance of stealing voters from “the Trump cult.”
“Do you think you could really take the party away from the clutches of the Trump cult as it is now?” Maher asked. “I mean, because even if it’s not Trump, it’s going to be a Trumper.”
Christie didn’t seem to be at all concerned. “I’d like to see what happens in the midterms,” he said. “I think, you know, all I heard in 2016 was that, ‘we’re going to do so much winning that we’re going to be tired of winning’ and we’re going to ask him not to win anymore. And then we lost the House and the Senate in ’18; we lost the presidency in ’20; we lost two Senate seats in Georgia in ‘20. A lot of losing.”
He added confidently, “I think they might want to go back to winning again.”

What else is that fat bastard going to do?
Lol. Wonder if he figures it out when only five people show up to his rallies?
Kept looking for signs the Babylon Bee was behind this story and for once failed to find same.
Loser move. It fits.
Fat ass Lou Costello look-a-like f’ing RINO.
No damn good for anything.
No self awareness at all in this guy.
hard to believe someone can be that delusional.
“Running”? Slithering is more like it
Cruz seems to be one who’s teetered on the precipice of falling into the same fate as Christie and Pence but for some reason collects his senses and avoids the fall.
All three are smart and talented but only Cruz has proceeded into and (so far) through the Trump era with his political career intact.
Cruz rightly concludes, if you can’t beat them, join them. Would like to see a (non-NBC) guy like him appointed to SCOTUS, but instead we are getting the likes of KBJ (not a biologist).
Good grief.
Bwahahahahhahaa.
Isn’t that special? Maher defining the term “normal”! A normal Republican reads the script sheet of the DNC party talking points and reads from it. A normal Republican loves abortion and decadence in Maher’s world!
Do it fat boy!
Fantasy Island.
Not Babylon Bee.
Another Yeb.
Trump needs a good sparring partner to humilate in the primaries...
