Christie endorses Trump

[Boss]

Sure it is, especially if you have your eye on a possible VP pick. There was no love between Trump and any of the other candidates. Christie went with the best odds. Can't blame him. He would like to be President too, and he's young enough to wait it out 8 years.

Christie stood there on the debate stage and said, the ONLY person qualified to be president is a former governor who has dealt with the aspects of governing... he made that point over and over again... for the majority of his campaign, that was his core message. He pointed to what he did as governor... the things that only a governor has the responsibility to do... the things only a governor can do. Now he is endorsing a man who, not only has never been a governor, but has never held ANY political office!

So do I take away from this that Chris Christie was totally full of shit and didn't even believe his own rhetoric? And at 5~6% of the GOP vote... what relevance does he have anyway? He's a nobody! His opinion meant nothing before and it means even less now that we see he was totally full of shit. He has about as much chance of being the VP pick as I do.

The establishment wont have any choice but to get behind Trump in the end.
With any luck they'll learn that it's okay to go against the PC crowd.

They got behind Reagan why not trump? What I like is he isn't a right wing nut. That's why Christie endorsed him. Pulling your party left.

Yea but people that like him are moderates and that's huge for trump.

And that says how much Christie thinks about Cruz rubio kasich and carson.

And Christie could have stayed in like carson but why bother finishing 5th that way?

Chris Christie is endorsing Trump. I guess it's safe to assume this was Trumps big news.

I'm sure the 6% of folks that voted for him will be impressed, NOT! The Pillsbury doe boy criticized the hell out of Trump in the debates and now is showing his hypocrisy, trying to gain traction for the VP slot, typical establishment politician.

I think this is why Kasich is staying in the race. He too is hoping to land a possible VP position. He and Carson were the least two to engage in the mud slinging.

Well who else besides Kasich has experience as a Governor? It was a blanket statement by Christie to try and give himself an advantage over most everybody else on stage.

There is a lot of back room talk with things like this. While we don't know what is being said behind the curtain, sometimes it's pretty obvious by the actions.

You are correct that Trump was never even a Councilman for his city, so he is going to need somebody there with plenty of experience to help him out. If you don't know much about the job, hire people that do.

And Republicans don't like kasich because he isn't a strong leader.

Christie should be trumps vp

I think it's more that Kasich is somewhat moderate. I will say he's done some good for our state, but I don't know if he'd be good as President. A VP? Not the worst pick anybody could make.

He'll probably endorse Hillary in the general election. Or Bernie. No saying what the guy actually believes, even he doesn't seem to know

I could see that. As horrible HW was as President, he was actually a pretty decent VP. I could totally see Kasich being in that vein

 

[Mad Scientist]

This is only SLIGHTLY more impressive than Palin's endorsement.

Who you suppose Rubio will endorse when HE drops out?

You'd hope when either Cruz or Rubio finally drop out, they will endorse the other. Personally, I think endorsements are way, way overrated. I doubt many voters care who their candidate endorses when they lose.

As for Christie, he's running for VP now. And Trump is the only one who would pick him.

Assuming Trump wins, and I still think he won't, I think Christie would be a terrible choice for Trump. Trump has to pick someone who brings people with him, not who appeals to the people who already support him.

Cruz is too uncontrollable. Rubio would be the best choice for him if Rubio would do it. Kasich would be a decent choice. He needs to reach out to people voting against him now, not alienate them more

There was a "happy ending" to the Christie Candidacy after all

Chris Christie Endorses Donald Trump Less Than a Week After Campaign Sells Donor List to Marco Rubio

 

[NYcarbineer]

A perfect example of a pair of fat cats.

 

[Edgetho]

Christie is doing this out of spite.

He knows that Trump the Punk is the ONLY Republican Candidate that can and will lose to Ubercunt.

I just don't get liberturdian scum. They claim to be on the side of smaller government and personal freedom but EVERY TIME they become active ina Presidential election, they facilitate the election of dimocrap SCUM.

Every time.

Look at Ross The Insane Pirogi. Look at how they sat home in 2008 and 2012.

It's why I DESPISE libertarian scum. I don't DESPISE LIBERTURDIAN SCUM because of their beliefs. Hell, I hold a lot of the same beliefs.

I DESPISE LIBERTURDIAN SCUM because they are back-stabbing, infantile, juvenile bitches that will stab their host (the Republican Party) in the back if they don't get their way.

They're the people you invite to your party because you feel sorry for them. Because they are outsiders and no one else wants much to do with them, so you invite them .......

And they shit all over your party when they can't be the center of attention.

That is EXACTLY what liberturdian scum do to Republicans every time.

They don't get their way, so devise a mechanism through which they can sabotage us. Every time. Every election they do this.

They run the more moderate members of constituency out and substitute their own idiot views then, when they don't get exactly what they want, they turn the Punch Bowl over.

Trump is an asshole.

He goes on O-Reilly and says we have to allow Syrian refugees in tehn 2 weeks later, after San Bernardino, says he's for keeping ALL muslims out without even addressing his prior point.

He says he's pro life after being pro abortion for years and years. Even pro partial birth abortion.

He thinks Conservatives are Bible thumpers so he says he loves Jesus. He thinks we're all uneducated so he "Loves the uneducated". He thinks we're all gun nuts so he loves the 2nd Amendment. He thinks we hate Mexicans and Muslims so he wants to build a wall on the Mexican Border, keep them out and also keep out all Muslims.

Trump is a scam artist.

And you people backing him are just simply stupid.

Period.

Thanks, liberturdian scum, for FUCKING the Republican Party -- Again.

We really need to get rid of you people.

George Soros as a write in????

 

[NYcarbineer]

Christie has about a 35% approval rating in New Jersey. He can't even help Trump in Christie's home state.

 

[Political Junky]

We're watching the end of the republican party. How long before Congress has a Democratic majority again?

Looks like I was on to something.
