Christie Will Shadow Trump If He Ducks Debates




We were amused to see former New Jersey Governor and recent Malignant Loser antagonist Chris Christie vowing to follow the Malignant Loser around the country until he agrees to participate in the debates. Christie has always been a no-holds-barred political gut fighter (no pun intended), and needs to get some political oxygen by getting under the Malignant Loser's thin orange skin. From the Hill:

"GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie vowed Sunday to follow former President Trump 'around the country' if the former president does not debate.

'Well, if he doesn’t do any of the debates, Howie, you know, we’re going to give him another chance,' he told Fox News’s Howard Kurtz on “Media Buzz.” 'I’m sure he’s not coming to the Reagan debate. We’ll give him another chance in Alabama. But if he doesn’t come there, then I’m going to follow him around the country. Wherever he goes, I’ll go. And we’ll wind up talking to each other one way or other. And he knows that’s true.'

When pushed further on the topic, Christie confirmed he would change his schedule to follow Trump around."  (our emphasis)

Christie is rational enough to know that he'll never be the nominee of the Republican / Forced Birth / Sedition party, and that his poll numbers won't get above the low single digits. That party is too rotted out, delusional and cult-like. He may have a decent showing in New Hampshire's primary, but that's about it. His mission is to be the unvarnished truth teller about the Malignant Loser, and even if his efforts fall on deaf ears, he can say he wasn't silent when others were.
