Christie Immediately Goes After Trump

June 7, 2023 · 6:56 am ET · Leave a Comment

Chris Christie warned his audience in New Hampshire to “beware of the leader” who won’t admit to having any faults and criticized “pretenders” afraid to admonish such a leader, instead treating them like Voldemort or “he who shall not be named,” the Daily Beast reports.

Said Christie: “Well let me be clear in case I have not been already. The person I am talking about who is obsessed with the mirror, who never admits a mistake, who never admits a fault, and who always finds someone else and something else to blame for whatever goes wrong—but finds every reason to take credit for anything that goes right—is Donald Trump.”

The AP reports Christie called Trump a ‘lonely, self-consumed, self-serving mirror hog’ and arguing that he’s the only one who can stop him.”
