Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a two-time Republican presidential candidate, will now teach a class on political campaigns at Yale University.

Christie will teach a 15-person seminar for graduate and undergraduate students titled “How to Run a Political Campaign” at Yale this fall, according to a new report from Semafor. The class will look into the complexities of running a campaign in the 2020s.

“Political campaigns in the 2020s are becoming more technology dependent, more confusing and difficult from a communications perspective and even more fraught with pitfalls and personal challenges,” the class description reads.

“When deciding whether to run for any office, all of these issues must be confronted in addition to the core considerations of issue positions, fundraising and the most important question of all: If I do win, what do I want to accomplish and what kind of leader do I want to be?” the course description continues.

Those who can, do.  Those who can't, teach.

The lectures would be interesting if he spoke about his time in the white house.  I wouldn't want to pay $8k or whatever tuition is for 3 credit hours.

In all fairness, it's about how to run one, not how to win...

 There's one born every minute.

The guy who finished with the lowest approval rating for any governor, ever.

He's not teaching a course on how to govern -- which, given what you just noted he would have to do by holding himself up as an exemplar of what not to do -- he's teaching a course on how to run a campaign, which he did successfully several times running.
