Quote
Washington (CNN)New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie -- a former Donald Trump rival turned top defender -- is being vetted as a possible running mate for the presumptive Republican nominee, a source confirmed to CNN on Thursday.
Christie has received the official paperwork for the vetting process, according to a source with knowledge of the process.

Trump has said he intends to announce his vice presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention in July in Cleveland.
The New York Times was first to report Christie's vetting.

Though Christie ran against Trump in the GOP primary, the two have been long-time friends and Christie quickly endorsed Trump and became a reliable presence at his events after dropping out of the race. The New Jersey governor has been one of Trump's highest-profile surrogates, continually defending him against critics.

Christie is in charge of "designing a government" for Trump. Christie is of course a liberal establishment Republicrat

Chris Christie was the only sycophant who sucked up to Trump sufficiently I guess.

That will do WONDERS to get Conservatives on board the Trump train.


Well, I did suggest that they continue to pander to Bernie supporters for help.  This is a step in that direction.

So much for Trump being the "anti-Establsihment candidate".

Now watch the Trump militant come out to hail and glorify this potential outcome as brilliant and exactly what will unify the party.

It's a freaking train wreck.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

With Trump's favorable ratings at -40 and Christie's at -30, what could possibly go wrong?

I was thinking along the same lines. Christie is probably the only one who would accept the nomination.

I hope the toad gets something out of this. He's pretty much made himself a laughingstock for his fearless leader.

I wonder if Christie will have to provide his tax returns?

This makes perfect sense, Trump is a master promoter, but needs cash for his campaign and that's were the corpulent one comes in. The Huckster has lot's of experience fleecing the gullible masses selling medical quackery to desperate people, this would be right up his alley fleecing the the gullible masses again only  this time he'd be shilling political quackery.

Yeah, I almost feel sorry for him.  This campaign season has totally ruined him and he was somewhat respected prior to this.

He did make a couple of huge mistakes... one, playing huggy buddy to Obama and two, letting that stupid bridge thing get out of hand.

Those mistakes could have been overcome and left him with some respect politically.

He has been totally diminished and made to look a complete fool by aligning himself with Trump.  Trump has shown him no respect.
Against stupidity, the Gods themselves contend in vain.
