Becoming president was just a bridge too far for Chris Christie.

He’s going to be in a bad mood. Pity the commuters who have to cross bridges on their way to work.

In related business news, shares of Marie Callender’s skyrocket in anticipation of someone needing comfort food.

Don’t you mean “a fridge too far?”

Anyway, I’m kind of sad to see Christie go. He is an extremely effective attack dog. He helped dump Rubio, the only guy I thought had any chance in the general. For that, Mr Useful Idiot, we thank you.

Have you got it through you thick head at long last. The country sees you as big mouth bully and a violator of the public trust. Playing crony politics with your constitutes Hurricane Sandy relief money, and using taxpayer dollars to pay your legal bills is what you will be remembered for.

Fortunately New Jersey is not prone to earthquakes because the folks there could mistake the drop for a seismic event.

@Starquest
He mistook Rubot for one his NJ constituents and treated him accordingly, that is, with total disrespect and disdain.

Remember Chris, it’s not the fall that kills you. It’s the sudden stop at the end. As long as you’re falling, you’re still alive. Stay in Chris, and spend money like money can make you fly!

Comfort food - STAT!

humpback · February 10, 2016, 3:39pm

Bye-bye, ya bully!

I am not so sure about Rubio, I think Kasich is the guy to worry about. He comes across as reasonable and he could be a problem. It will be interesting to see how he spins this

upwitoulz · February 10, 2016, 3:45pm

If it makes you feel any better Fatso’s farewell might be only temporary. Don’t be surprised if you see him in the VP slot down the road, Spiro Agnew style.

jalus · February 10, 2016, 3:46pm

People are hoping Christie will drop out and go home: Easy for you! He’s not going home to govern YOUR state. Have some sympathy for the people of New Jersey.

rudesan · February 10, 2016, 3:54pm

I was going to say, how can Christie go back to New Jersey now? He’s already burned that bridge.

geofu54 · February 10, 2016, 3:55pm

Isn’t there any way he drops out AND never be back home?? Please?

toughguy · February 10, 2016, 3:55pm

“The moderate northeastern Republican…”

Really? There is nothing moderate about this corrupt reprobate.

We can thank him for destroying Marco Rubio, however.

ralph_vonholst · February 10, 2016, 3:56pm

Christie aides expect him to drop out of the race.

Here’s what the impact crater will look like:

sjk · February 10, 2016, 3:56pm

He was effective in killing off the Rube…lolz

fargo116 · February 10, 2016, 3:56pm

I think what amuses me the most about this is that four years ago, the GOP cocksuckers were begging this tub of lard to run. BEGGING him so there would be an alternative to Mittens. They wanted him SO bad that I figured he was going to be their nominee for 2016. Then he took a shotgun shaped like a bridge and blew off three toes.

fargo116 · February 10, 2016, 3:58pm

This is on the lines of what I was thinking when I read that sentence in the story. but I was looking for a picture of a flaming crash at the Paris Air Show.
