CAN’T WIN: Christie even takes flak from Trump for absenteeism

By The Staff | The Save Jersey Blog

It’s been a long day for Chris Christie.

Hell, it’s been a long couple of years.

After weathering another day of ugly press from back home for campaigning out-of-state with Donald Trump in North Carolina, Governor Christie’s Columbus, Ohio joint appearance with the Donald presented yet another indignity in a long-string perceived affronts that have made the New Jerseyan a butt of many late night jokes and social media memes.

Trump was trying to make the point that his prime Ohio Primary rival, John Kasich, had shirked his role as governor to campaign in New Hampshire.

Then it happened. “And your governor is absentee,” Trump told the revved-up crowd. “He goes to New Hampshire, he’s living in New Hampshire. Living! Where’s Chris, is Chris around? Even more than Chris Christie, he was there, right? Even more.”

The front runner turned to Christie on the shared stage afterwards and explained, “I hated to do that, but I had to make my point.” Watch:

Oh boy.

Here’s the full rally:

  1. Christie must be living in an alternate reality….tells NJ residents he is going to stick around and do his job…next thing you know he is on the road again with Trump….not a big fan but nothing was going to get done unless he and the Legislative leaders work together…..at this point he might as well resign and let Kim have a crack at it.

  2. Debt? go back to Whitman and Donnie D… borrow and spend …fair and balanced! Christie … he is certainly pro-choice in sucking up to Trump rather than pay respects to the State trooper!

  3. Don’t cry for him. Cry for his failed promises:
    Keep property taxes within 2% cap
    Save AC from failure with state monitors
    Bring jobs back after recession
    Doing his job while campaigning out of state for two years
    Sandy recovery
