probably a big bet that Christie will be Trumps pick to prosecute Hillary

Christie talking about Hillary's mess in comparison to civil cases Trump's involved in to a reporter.....

Wow...specific about supporting Trump to make sure Hillary doesn't become POTUS!

ETA: Also to go after the DC Establishment....Hits repeatedly regarding Rubio....

Christy sees the shape of things to come and wants to head up the DOJ?

That wouldn't surprise me...That he praised Kasich as well makes me wonder if they're setting the stage for him to get on board if and when he withdraws as a candidate. Getting Senators and Congressional Reps as endorsements are one thing, current and former governors are a whole different thing...

Your kidding me?? That bag of bilge? [politically speaking of course] If I was Trump I'm not sure I would want his endorsement. Probably kissing up for the V.P. nod on the ticket and then when something unfortunate happens to Trump shortly after beginning his term the establishment would once again have one of their own at the helm.

Not far out from Christie's standpoint....

Apparently with the number of references to Rubio getting pummeled by Christie in a prior debate, part of the reason for bringing him in is to hammer Rubio down and out. This could very quickly drop to a two or three man race, even before the next primary/caucus.

Christie...Not offered a position. Intends to complete term then go into private industry...

And out....
 
Trump is moving to the general election mode. He is beginning the process of trying to put into play States that are Blue and Purple.

Yeah. He's running such a thin physical campaign he's got to both trim down the field fast and beat the GOPe to the convention to keep them from pulling a back room deal with a brokered convention.

ETA: That's also going to put real pressure on the Democrats to seriously look at their ticket and possibly change horses at their convention as well.

I am starting to think that it will be a brokered convention with Trump coming in with the most support and someone else walking out with the nomination - and the GOP fades into oblivion

Yeah, that's possible as well on both points....
 

Oreally

Christie is free to endorse whomever he wants...

Now, if Trump offers him a position in his administration... THAT will give me pause to vote for him.

Chris Christie Inducted into CAIR's 'Best List' for Fighting 'Islamophobia'
CAIR says the list was compiled as a way to recognize those who “deserve recognition for their outstanding contributions to pushing back against Islamophobic trends in 2011 and 2012.” The report says Christie is receiving the accolade primarily for his nomination of a Muslim judge and statements in the ensuing controversy:

Following Islamophobic criticism of his nomination of Sohail Mohammed as a New Jersey Superior Court judge, Christie pushed back. Commenting on the baseless fear some were spreading about Islamic religious principlesChristie bluntly stated, “This Sharia law business is just crap. It’s just crazy,and I’m tired of dealing with the crazies.”

Chris Christie’s Islam Problem
When serving as U.S. attorney for New Jersey, Christie embraced and kissed Mohammed Qatanani, imam of the Islamic Center of Passaic County, and praised him as “a man of great goodwill.” He did this after Qatanani had publicly ranted against Jews and in support of funding Hamas

After Derek Fenton burned three pages of a Koran at a 9/11 memorial ceremony, his employer, New Jersey Transit, got Christie’s approval to fire him. Protecting Islam at the expense of the constitutional right to free speech, Christie endorsed Fenton’s termination: “That kind of intolerance is something I think is unacceptable. So I don’t have any problem with him being fired.”

Christie appointed an Islamist, Sohail Mohammed, to the New Jersey state superior court. Mohammed’s record includes serving as general counsel to the American Muslim Union (which has stated that a “Zionist Commando Orchestrated The 9-11 Terrorist Attacks”), acting as spokesman for Muslim prisoners who went on a hunger strike after being jailed during Ramadan, defending Palestinian Islamic Jihad operative Sami Al-Arian (his indictment, Mohammed said, was “nothing but a witch-hunt”), and helping Qatanani’s legal defense

The revelation that the New York Police Department had conducted surveillance of Islamists in the New Jersey towns of Newark and New Brunswick prompted not gratitude but outrage from Christie, who termed the action arrogant and paranoid while mocking NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly as “all knowing, all seeing.”

Gov. Christie's Strange Relationship with Radical Islam
Christie's support for Islamists such as Qatanani and Mohammed betrays either naivete or calculation. Either is troubling.

< Yes, I do look like that.
Note that some of the politicritters are starting to embrace the horror of Trump being basically a runaway with the Presidency, GOP nomination or no. And those that are embracing the horror are starting to try to get all warm and fuzzy with Trump, likely in the hope of getting something useful in return like a Cabinet post or the exit strategy of a tall-paying position in one of his companies.

Part of me thinks the body politic of the US isn't aware of how much hatred of them is pushing Trump's increasingly-inevitable ascension to "king of the world," and part of me is thinking they all know without a doubt how much hatred there is out in flyover-land and are desperately trying to forestall the increasingly-inevitable. The reality, I suspect, lands in the middle: some politicritters are without clue about how fed up the populace is with the country's leadership, and some of them know all too well that they're one sufficiently large catastrophe away from swinging from lamp-posts.

Did I hear right? Rubio was giving some kind of press release or something and with Trumps news about Christie all the reporters left Rubio and went to the Trump news. Fox sounds really po'd.


Anybody know what happened. Fox was upset because they'd thought they had a bunch of news about rubio but suddenly it was about trump

Mind quoting the location? Sounds like a passage worth analyzing.

If Trump has at least or more than (not sure which ) 50% of the delegates, no brokered convention.

Faggot, how very erduite and I don't even support Rubio. Thanks for posting the reminder of Christie embracing Obama. Now Trump/Christie/Obama and Hillary can have an even better laugh about how lifetime liberal Trump is making fools out of voters who can't wait to endorse another cult figure who enflames big feels but has no substantive policy or any conservative history whatsoever.
