Christie Won’t ‘Defer To Anyone’ Including Trump In Weighing 2024 Presidential Bid | Talking Points Memo

Liz Cheney up against Kamala Harris? Interesting concept but for a number of reasons, I don’t think it’s very likely for 2024. Also don’t think Christie will ever have a path to the Presidency.

The MAGAts won’t trust him because they know that Trump didn’t trust him. And if Christie doesn’t make a show of kissing Donald’s ring – which it sounds like he’s ruled out – then he’ll be the target of Trump attacks. The rest of the GOP might go for Christie, but they can’t win without the enthusiasm of the base.

This ass hole singlehandedly blocked essential infrastructure funds from flowing from the federal government to NY/NJ metro area when he was NJ Governor. Tunnel Traffic and public safety be dammed.

Depending on 2022 elections, the SCOTUS, Democrats’ ability to enact election reform, the economy and myriad other uncontrollable factors, can we all agree that 2024 is a lifetime away?

Christie is stuck back in 2012 when he was supposed to be the next Republican golden boy - he is almost as distant from reality as Trump himself. He is far past his sell by date politically, but he just can’t get past it.

"Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie ® has said he will opt to take a different tact . . "

The word you were looking for, Zoe, is tack.

Please get an English-speaking proofreader, Josh!!

I thought Christie was the outlawed Jersey whale?

Christie has a blocked bridge he’d like to sell you.

My momma taught me that if it sounds too good to be true, it is probably not true. An outlaw Jersey whale selling a bridge meets that description, so I’m going to take a hard pass on the offer.

Gotta keep pretending he has a shot to keep getting those gigs on tv.

Why not compete on American Ninja Warrior while you’re at it, Christie? I think your chance of winning that is every bit as good!

As tempting as it is to tell jokes about Big Fatty, I mean Chris Christie “WEIGHING” anything, the only rational reason he would run for president is it helps make money doing other things like the lecture circuit and television.

Yep. A fine choice when you actually know from whence it came.
