Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) told ABC News that former President Donald Trump accidentally revealed he incited the January 6 Capitol riot to intimidate Mike Pence and Congress into overturning the election.
Said Christie: “Let’s face it. Let’s call it what it is. January 6 was a riot that was incited by Donald Trump in an effort to intimidate Mike Pence and the Congress into doing exactly what he said in his own words last week: Overturn the election.”
He added: “He’s trying to do a clean-up on aisle one here. But it’s not going to change. He actually told the truth by accident. He wanted the election to be overturned.”
