Giuliani: Chris Christie Is My #1 Candidate For AG

The North Jersey Record reports:

Chris Christie has opened a law firm and Rudy Giuliani, a long-time mentor and attorney for President Donald Trump, says he’s sent New Jersey’s former governor clients. Christie, nearing the end of his formal transition out of state government, established a new practice based in his Morris County hometown.

Giuliani said in an interview that he views Christie as a “viable guy for a lot of things” in the administration, but given Trump’s open dissatisfaction with Attorney General Jeff Sessions, he thinks Christie is well suited for the chief law enforcement officer position “in particular.”

“He’s my No. 1 candidate. I don’t know if he wants it. He may be too involved with his law practice,” Giuliani said. But, he added, “I see him also as a guy who has unlimited possibilities in the second term.”

A spokesman for Christie is denying that Giuliani has sent him any clients.
