GOV. CHRIS CHRISTIE: PRESIDENT TRUMP AND POWER POLITICS

[@yurikendal4868]

There is a difference between honest disagreement and a rejection of basic truth s, science, etc

[@rrpostalagain]

Right? We can’t even disagree any more because we can’t agree to the base reality. I miss republicans who actually had policy opinions other than “whatever the leader says today”. Fiscal responsibility, states rights, etc. They did not even come up with a platform this year??

[@cathyl2338]

@@rrpostalagain yep former Republican here. They aren’t interested in policy or governance. Why? Because governance and good policy is hard work. Why would they want to actually work?

[@dollymadison2397]

"Atleast he's being authentic". Exactly! The more Trump is his authentic-self, the more disturbing he gets.

[@benj3911]

Yet he didn't use nukes like the dems said he would. oops... A bit judgemental there, eh?

[@celinepetit370]

I would vote for him.

Sexually assaulting a girl at college is not 'life experience'. If that's life experience, I want public officials without it. Very telling standpoint.

[@greggrozdanis5737]

He wasnt talking about that. I know the interviewing mentioned it but Chrisie was clearly addressing the yearbook issue

[@richardkhan640]

I like this guy,his honesty in speaking the truth.

[@Badgersj]

The last line is really prophetic! 'Nobody told me, I didn't get briefed'!

[@dollymadison2397]

Every time I here Chris say "Mary Pat" or "My wife" I hear the adoration in his voice.

[@richardkhan640]

You are a better comedian than me.

[@humanforotherhumans]

"They wrote a statement to apologize" That is not an apology from Trump.

[@grnbrven]

The Commonwealth Club is missing the point! Their problem is in Sacramento, not Washington DC. Clean up your own back yard before finding a mess in another's backyard, what an opportunity! When that is done you will find a willing audience!

[@dollymadison2397]

DC is more powerful than Sacramento. Perhaps commonwealth is going by the trickle-down theory.

[@justgivemethetruth]

Christie talks about going to dinner with Donald Trump at a fancy Manhattan restaurant, and yet not being able to eat anything because he was allergic to what Trump ordered for him .... scallops, and he hates lamb. I'm just thinking Christie could have done us all a big favor and just eaten Donald Trump. Too bad! ;-)

[@DoubleMrE]

Christie is a crook, but he’s kind of a cool guy IMO.

[@yurikendal4868]

An excellent con man

[@richardkhan640]

Why rub it in.😊

[@alexanderh9878]

This guy knows politics.

[@saffronwetter2221]

He's a lying Dictator

Colbert opens to anyone

[@CVT57]

If they remake the Sopranos there's probably a part for a two faced Quid Pro Quo politician who's in the mobs pocket. He doesn't even need any artistic direction.

[@KJK1966]

I wish I was young again to vote.for him...by the time.he.runs ill be dead

[@leftyme4568]

Thank god! Christie will die from fattness before you I bet!

[@CP-td4kj]

❤ be positive 😊

[@justgivemethetruth]

Hahahaha, I have caught Chris Christy on a few radio shows, and then on Bill Maher. From the time I laid eyes on this guy he disgusted me and I have never liked him .... BUT, I have to admit that after listening to him talking I can see his appeal, or what I imagine is his appeal to some people. He is a pretty smart guy, he is personable and self-depricating ( of course what else would he be ). I found myself liking him, or rather the way he comes off personally in an interview. I hate his politics and would never vote for him. But it is helpful to know that the guy is not all bad. If that is what it takes to be a good politician ... to be able to say about something like Donald Trump after they treat you like dog-doodoo that you still like him and consider him a friend, I have to affirm that I guess I am no politician and never will be. I can see where Christy would be good at bringing people together and reaching a consensus. He would have made a better President than Donald Trump. That doesn't mean much though.

[@winterlandboy]

No.It actually doesn’t mean much to say he’d have made a better president than trump.Thats not a difficult task .Hes a different kind of scumbag to trump and not an authoritarian or nationalist .I don’t think So at any rate I can’t stand him.He’s a slime ball .A liar of the first order.He’s glib and as you said self deprecating but those traits in him aren’t endearing to me They seem to exist in him to disarm you more than anything else.I never bought him from the from the first time that I laid eyes on him either and still don’t .

[@richpoinvil9618]

Wow, even Chris overestimated the intelligence of the American voters.

[@constantdrowsiness4458]

Warren taught at Rutgers for a while not that I'd expect that sort of loyalty from him.

[@yurikendal4868]

Im willing to listen to this Trump sycophant

[@user-zz3yz5hu1h]

Of course we care very much about the characteristics of our president, whether he is a honest, moral, respectful figure. But did we have any better choice in the area of moral excellence? More than anything we totally agree with Trump’s policy. Considering what he has been up against, we admire his courage.

[@justgivemethetruth]

@Dana Chapin The guy is an idiot .... they use their presidential vote to vent their toxic bile all over America because they are so full of hate.

[@intrepidtomato]

Aged like a fine wine.

[@justgivemethetruth]

I gotta say that Northam seems like he should not be so beat up ... for a guy who stood up to the South and tore down Confederate statues, I think that says a lot. I hate those Confederate statues, and having been there, I hate the whole mountain face of Stone Mountain Georgia - blow it up. And most of those statues are not that old, they were done in the 40's and 60's. There is not history there.

[@ellentaylor4351]

C Christy you had me interested until you mentioned President B Obama.
