[b]Chris Christie Mulls a Kamikaze Mission[/b][/h1]
[link=https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/19/chris-christie-2024-trump-revenge/]Aaron Blake[/link]: Christie seems prepared to be the one to test the theory, common in Trump-critic circles, that Republicans need to actually go at Trump if theyre to have any chance of defeating him. The problem with that, similar to the GOPs approach to Trump for years, is that nobody wants to be the one to leap and make that case. Better to let someone else torpedo themselves in the process. And then nobody does.
Notably, Christies probably best situated to do it. While Never Trumpers love Liz Cheney, and Asa Hutchinson and Chris Sununu appear ready to make such a case, Christie actually has a track record here that suggests it could matter. -
Chris Christie will run for President –

[h1] Chris Christie to announce GOP presidential campaign next week[/h1]
Christie, 60, is a former close Trump ally who now calls the former president a “[link=https://www.politico.com/news/2023/05/11/christie-trump-cnn-putin-00096393]coward[/link]” and “puppet of Putin.” He gives traditional Republicans a horse but seems to have a [link=https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/latest_polls/gop_primaries/]narrow market[/link] in today’s GOP.
Christie will make the announcement at a town hall at Saint Anselm College at 6:30pm ET on Tuesday.
His [link=https://www.chrischristie.com/]slogan[/link] will be the same as during his 2016 campaign: “Telling it like it is.”[/QUOTE]

This should be fun to watch.
Jared Kushner and Ivanka Kushner walk out of the White House and months later get $2 billion from the Saudis You think its because hes some kind of investing genius? Or do you think its because he was sitting next to the POTUS for 4 years doing favors for the Saudis?~ Chris Christie
Well let me be clear in case I have not been already. The person I am talking about who is obsessed with the mirror, who never admits a mistake, who never admits a fault, and who always finds someone else and something else to blame for whatever goes wrongbut finds every reason to take credit for anything that goes rightis Donald Trump.
~ Chris Christie
(Christie also called Trump a lonely, self-consumed, self-serving mirror hog )

He also dodged on if he would pardon Trump.
Would appreciate the feed on these. There is often something lost in translation when the message is posted here. I enjoy reading the entire piece, rather than the headline or the AM interpretation.-

Jersey Boy against Ortange Man techniques.
I warned that Trump is an asymmetrical fighter, so its hard to know how to go at him. Clinton tried to rise above him, and Marco Rubio imitated his crude style.
You just brought up two of the most unskilled politicians Ive ever met, Christie said, noting about Trump: I dont think hes ever gone up against somebody who knows how to do what he does. Hes never run against somebody from New Jersey who understands what the New York thing is and what hes all about. For people like me, whove grown up here and lived my whole life in this atmosphere, hes just one of a lot of people I know who have that personality. He knows I know what his game is.

I have to tell you the truth, I cant completely answer that until I know what he was charged with and convicted of, Christie said. Im not going to dodge the answer. [b]But I will tell you as a prosecutor, if I believe someone has gotten a full and fair trial in front of a jury of their peers, and especially someone in public life, who committed those crimes when they held a public trust, I cant imagine pardoning him.[/b]
