WINDHAM, N.H. — Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie is dropping out of the race for president, he said Wednesday evening, marking the exit of the last true anti-Donald Trump candidate from the Republican contest and potentially boosting rival Nikki Haley at a crucial moment.
WINDHAM, N.H. — Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie is dropping out of the race for president, he said Wednesday evening, marking the exit of the last true anti-Donald Trump candidate from the Republican contest and potentially boosting rival Nikki Haley at a crucial .
Christie made the announcement at an event previously billed as a campaign town hall meeting, in Windham, N.H., the same state where he launched his bid in June. Christie had staked his campaign almost entirely on New Hampshire and an anti-Trump message.
He trumpeted that same message as he explained, in an even tone, why he would drop his bid.
“From the moment I got into the race, the decision that I made was really simple: I would rather lose by telling the truth than lie in order to win,” Christie told dozens of supporters gathered at the town hall event. “And I feel no differently today.”
“It’s clear to me tonight that there isn’t a path for me to win the nomination, which is why I’m suspending my campaign tonight,” Christie said.

Who did he think was going to vote for him?
Guess that means no sex symbol in the race.
No more farts from the fake fat Cheeseburger?
Good riddance Fatso.
Was he doing it at a Crispy Kreme?
They are trying to push Haley to the front.
It takes a BIG MAN to admit that he’s not going to win, this time.
More food at the Buffet,,,
(Insert me laughing with my unsurprised face here).
Lol!
“They are trying to push Haley to the front.”
My first thought too...once the big money went to Nimroda, Christie was through.
Guess the Christy Kreme never trumpers will be voting for ol’ Nikky now.
Before he made the announcement he was caught on a hot mic trashing desantis and haley, vanity got it on tape and saved it and played it and apparently it’s been removed from any recordings of christie’s announcement.
Should be able to hear that from here.
The rat donors who were paying him probably figured he wasn’t damaging Trump so they cut off the money.
Adios, you big fat loser.

New Hampshire state law provides for semi-closed primaries, meaning that a voter generally must be registered as a party member in order to participate in that party’s primary. A previously unaffiliated voter can participate in the primary of his or her choice.
I guess Fatso is hoping all of the Republicans and unaffiliated voters are now going to vote for Nikki.
