Title: Chris Christie says 2024 presidential race will feature Trump, Cotton, Pence, and Cruz and force GOP

The jelly doughnut boy wishes that he was relevant.

Chris Christie says 2024 presidential race will feature Trump, Cotton, Pence, and Cruz and force GOP voters to choose between 'the party of me or the party of us'


    Chris Christie predicts that fewer than a dozen Republicans will run for president in 2024.

    He bills Donald Trump, Mike Pence, Ted Cruz, and Tom Cotton as top contenders.

    Christie says the decision comes down to appeasing one man or supporting the entire country.

Onetime Trump ally and possible 2024 presidential contender Chris Christie said the top of the next GOP ticket will probably feature Donald Trump, former Vice President Mike Pence, Sen. Ted Cruz, or maybe a half dozen others, and will be a test of who'll guide the party into the future.

"My guess is it'll be somewhere between six and eight. And I think that you'll see people talking about whether the future of the Republican Party is as the party of me or the party of us," the former New Jersey governor told conservative talk-show host Hugh Hewitt on Thursday.

Christie also tossed Trump-appointed former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas into the potential mix with the embattled former president, Trump's estranged, two-time former running mate, and the Texas Republican Trump trounced in the 2016 presidential contest................

I would vote for Cotton in a minute.
I could still be talked into voting for Cruz - Though it would take some talking...

The rest of em ain't worth the effort.

But I do not believe there will be a Cotton or a Cruz. Pence perhaps, and a boatload of RINOs

And while I have nothing against Pence (other than I know he's spineless and some of what he did as governor he would have to answer for), too many do. So trying to hang anything on Pence is a non-starter.

After Cruz' comment calling J6 protestors "terrorist", and his little Cancun trip during the deep freeze?.....

Heck with being POTUS, he might lose his  senate seat next time.

And this is coming from one of his prior biggest and earliest supporters.

Cotton, along with DeSantis might be a fine alternative to Trump.

Cruz is not constitutionally qualified to run for president and I will not vote for him. Cotton maybe. Desantis is doing a great job in Florida at present and probably needs to stay there.

YEP. That's a hard hit. But I do not really know the context, and will reserve judgement on that till I do... Even if it was a slip of the tongue that he later retracted... I can get over that.

The big one for me is that he was the literal spear-point of the TEA party... We all hung our hopes on him... He was the child of promise.

That he voted *FOR* all of the Porkulous packages is directly against every_single_thing he purportedly stood for in the TEA Party.

THAT is hard to swallow.

That he attached his lips to Tumpy's rear after what he did to his family - That too is a hard pass. Somebody did that to my kin, they'd be done. Forever. Well past bygones being bygones. Goes to character - which was flawless - But is no more.

I get that... But, if the vacation was booked long before, it might have looked bad... But I can get over it.

That's right. I CAN vote for Cotton, and I can probably vote for DeSantis... Very good chance of that.

I think it's guaranteed that if Trump runs Cruz won't.

That's bullshit. I am not associated in the least with the alt-right.
I am a Conservative. I vote for Conservatives.

And don't think the 'fat tub of sh*t' accusation was lost on me.

Keep making it personal. You'll get @Cyber Liberty 's boot up your ass.
Of course though, as always, it's all you got.

Nah... He just had to get a cheap poke in. For no reason. Out of the blue.
With no courtesy ping.

It's what he does.

When was the last time he was right about anything?

I doubt he's starting now.

Nothing to do with it? How can you say the bombing of Pearl Harbor is nothing, or Iwo Jima! And what about the Alamo, who can forget Rommel's assault on the Alamo? Put on a mask for Gods sake!
