Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie sharply criticized Donald Trump during his first trip this year to New Hampshire, as he kept the door open to entering the GOP presidential primary against his former ally and signaled he would decide by June.
“You know, Donald Trump said a couple of weeks ago, ‘I am your retribution.’ Guess what, everybody? No thanks. No thanks,” Christie said to applause from his audience in an early-nominating state. “If I was going to pay somebody to be my retribution, I guarantee this, it wouldn’t be him.”continued, “Here’s why it wouldn’t be him, because he doesn’t want to be my retribution. That’s baloney. The only person he cares about is him.
arguing that DeSantis should show more support for Ukraine and saying that someone needed to “place a wake-up call to Tallahassee.”Christie said he heard Pence give an unsatisfying answer to the question of whether it was disqualifying for Trump to call for suspending the Constitution to overturn the election — that the American people would decide.
At the town hall, Saul Shriber, 67, stood and asked Christie why he hadn’t tried to take down Trump in 2016. Shriber had supported Christie in the New Hampshire primary and said he felt disappointed when the governor ultimately backed Trump.
