Chris Christie Announces 2024 Presidential Run, Knocks Trump, George Washington, Praises Woodrow Wilson
Breitbart ^ | 6 Jun 2023 | PAUL BOIS

Posted on 06/06/2023 8:49:31 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

Former Republican New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie announced his campaign for the 2024 presidential election on Tuesday, during which he knocked former President Donald Trump and strangely praised former President Woodrow Wilson at George Washington’s expense.

Christie has been a fierce opponent and critic of Donald Trump, despite endorsing him wholeheartedly in 2016, since the Russia collusion investigation, a criticism that only accelerated following the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill. In his announcement on Tuesday, the former New Jersey governor repeated his dislike for the former president, charging that he helped make America smaller by playing off people’s divisions.

“We have leaders who have led us to being small. Small by their example. Small by the way they conduct themselves. Small by the things they tell us we should care about. Smaller and smaller,” he said.

“And they do it in other ways too. They’re making us smaller by dividing us into smaller and smaller groups. And they sell to you that we should get into these smaller groups because we’ll be more comfortable,” he continued. “The smaller and smaller group you get into, then you’re probably not going to hear anything you disagree with. The smaller group you get into, you just watch the news you want to hear. The smaller group you get into, the less chances you’ll ever be offended by anything.”

Christie charged that both Republicans and Democrats were guilty of this divisive exploitation. On the left, he criticized Joe Biden and President Barack Obama, for promising to bring Americans together but doing the exact opposite. On the right, he criticized former President Donald Trump for allegedly continuing their divisions. Later, Christie more specifically attacked Donald Trump.

Woodrow Wilson is such an iconic figure in New Jersey that he has a highway rest area named after him.

Seriously — the dude was the first unapologetic modern fascist/globalist in the White House. Chris Christie is a front man for the Bush family. Put two and two together and you’ve got a clear picture of where Christie stands.

Wilson also ordered segregation in the US military and urged everyone to see the film “Birth of a Nation”, which depicted the the heroic origins of that Democrat social institution, the Ku Klux Klan. Fabulous role model for another Jersey POS.

CC is in it for the money. Start receiving contributions now while not expending for campaigning. If he can rake in 15-20 million from the east coast idiots, the better. It’s all about projection and using as little resources as possible.

If Crispy is saying Trump is promoting us into smaller groups, he should be happy...anything that makes him smaller he should applaud.

That's surprising. As someone once said ... In New Jersey, you're a nobody unless you have a public toilet named after you! :-P

Yes FATSO.

We want “SMALLER”. Start with your measure tape busting waistline.

If you don’t have the discipline to check your own appetite, how can you ever be trusted to check the ravenous appetite of DC?

15% approval from his own state.

Go away you FAT SLOB!

I think he knows he can’t and won’t win. This is why he’s in the race anyhow, because his trump derangement syndrome is off the charts.

Christie held secret meeting with GOP ‘kingmakers’, vowed to take on Trump in ‘angry’ rant: report

Chris Christie appealed to Republican bigwigs in a private meeting in which he made his case that he would be the solution to their Trump problem, expressing his willingness to be deployed as a human torpedo to sink the 2024 GOP frontrunner in a 45-minute rant in New Hampshire, according to a new report on the former New Jersey governor who is ready to declare his candidacy.

The Daily Mail dished the scoop on Christie’s clandestine meeting with “Republican kingmakers” that reportedly took place behind closed doors six weeks ago as the buzz began to build that the ABC News pundit and failed 2016 presidential candidate would join the crowded field of White House hopefuls, vowing to the high rollers that he was ready “to get into the ring” with the former president, a man he has fiercely criticized.

“It was all about Trump. He just wants to get into the ring with him and beat him up. He’s not in it to win it,” said one unnamed source who the outlet said was present at the previously unreported event.

“Christie seemed very angry. He was saying I am the guy who can take on Trump, but I was left wondering if he had any other policies,” said another source who was there.

He will be the beloved of The “New Fox News” for his words. Maybe he will get his own TV show after he loses a few Debates and is forced to drop out. Goal” Force Trump to go 3rd Party and do a “Bull Moose” Like Teddy did or Buchannan—insure a Democrat Victory for a decade.

Wilson was a tyrant who got into office to stay out of the European War, but did so anyway. A favorite of globalists.

Wow that is completely ass backwards. The US people wanted no part of a European War. Germany had as much change of taking over the USA as we are of finding our way into a new galaxy. Even the fictitious HG Wells account admitted that it is impossible to occupy the United States.

So the treason on US soil does not have such a thing as its end? The left here is intertwined with the left in the EU.

Time to review history. It’s repeating itself. H.G. Wells is irrelevant.
