 Christie seeks to win by getting under Trump’s skin
by Brett Samuels - 08/12/23 5:00 PM ET

Few candidates have been as aggressive in their attacks against former President Trump or shown the ability to get under the former president’s skin quite like Chris Christie.

While the former New Jersey governor is occasionally quizzed at town halls and in TV interviews about his policy positions, his frequent and at times personal criticisms of Trump have garnered him headlines and raised the question of whether he can make waves in the primary field either with his candidacy or by derailing Trump’s.

Trump has called Christie a “fat pig,” a “failed governor” and “sloppy,” and he posted an unflattering photo on social media of Christie sleeping on an airplane. He has blamed Christie for recommending the appointment of FBI Director Christopher Wray, who has become a lightning rod for criticism on the right.

It wouldn't have made any difference in 2016, but I agree it needs to be done.  Plenty to attack him on relating to his performance -- or rather, non-performance -- in office.
