Christie Says He Would Shoot Down Russian Planes

Gov. Chris Christie “ramped up his tough talk on foreign policy on Monday, calling President Obama a ‘weakling’ and saying that the United States should threaten to shoot down Russian planes conducting airstrikes in Syria,” the New York Times reports.

Said Christie: “My first phone call would be to Vladimir, and I’d say, ‘Listen, we’re enforcing this no-fly zone.’ And I mean we’re enforcing it against anyone, including you. So don’t try me. Don’t try me. Because I’ll do it.”
