I loved when Christie closed the bridge as a way to own the libs and created a huge traffic jam. And lied about it and made his underlings go to jail. And when he stopped the tunnel project after it was started as a political vendetta that cost Jersey millions of dollars. He is a great one.

Someone needs to come out and say, “It is a virtual certainty at this point that Trump will be under multiple indictments at the critical phases of the 2024 general election. And you know what, while the justice system should run its course fairly and free from political influence,
it seems more likely than not that Trump broke many laws and, more importantly, damaged both our national security and our collective faith in free and fair elections. Accordingly, I believe the time has come for the Republican Party to unite behind a new face, voice and principled optimism.”
That would require the someone to not be a coward. There’s no one left in the current version of the Republican Party who is not a coward. Whenever someone wanders down towards that path they fall back in line so fast that it creates a sonic boom!!
Cynically, you'd expect one or more people to do this, for the purpose of failing upward into a "token right-leaning talking head" role with the normie networks.

Well right - he's a smart guy, he's already run that play. But he has to maintain his
bona fides!

News Flash!
The second half of 2015 and first quarter of 2016 called. Told me to tell you they say hello.

Too funny. I'll be surprised if Christie makes it to the halfway mark of the GOP primaries.

It’s also generally true that the more these no-shots water down the field, the clearer the path is for Trump to recreate the 2016 primary.

dilemma: noun. dilemma [noun] a position or situation giving two choices, neither pleasant. predicament [noun] an unfortunate or difficult situation.
IMO: Christie as the republican nominee would lesson the existential threat Trump and DeSantis pose to the country, but that's what would also make him a bigger threat to Biden in the general.
viva la Trump!?

I disagree with your hypothesis re. Biden. If Christie is the Republican nominee Biden would likely win around 475 electoral votes because Trump would run as a third party candidate (TDub’s dream) split the votes in otherwise competitive states.

Of course, you're right.
I take it as a given that in the very unlikely event that Trump isn't the nominee because republicans chose someone else or because he's in jail or awaiting trial, Trump will either run as the aggrieved 3rd party candidate that RINOs screwed, or that democrats screwed, by "weaponizing" the government.
Not that I think he's predictable, or anything.

I heard a take that Christie, who has zero chance of getting the nomination, is running solely to trash Trump. Not sure if I buy it or not... but he definitely hates Trump and he definitely can't win, so it sorta fits.

Speaking of "ZERO chance", he's "solely" running to trash Trump?
Where did you hear that take? From MTG or Bozobert?
Maybe randy read it on a meme from someone named IDONTKNOWJACKSHITANDYOUHAVENOIDEAWHOIAMBUTYOUBELIEVEMEANYWAY and sent you a pm about it?
