Christie Claims He Wouldn’t Back Trump As Nominee

March 29, 2023 Politics, Republicans

Axios reports:

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who is seriously considering a 2024 presidential campaign, told Axios that he will never support Donald Trump for president again — even if he wins the Republican nomination. No potential GOP candidate has made such an explicit pledge, underscoring the degree to which Christie is betting on the viability of an anti-Trump lane in the primary.

Christie was one of the first top Republicans to back Trump in 2016 and even helped the former president prepare to debate Joe Biden during the 2020 campaign. Asked whether he’d support Trump as the GOP nominee in 2024, Christie said: “I can’t help him. No way. When you have the Jan. 6 choir at a rally and you show video of it — I just don’t think that person is appropriate for the presidency.”

Yeah, we’ve heard that before.

The RNC has said that any candidate who refuses to pledge to support the eventual nominee will not be allowed to participate in official debates.
