Still bitter that Trump never picked him for a cabinet position, Chris Christie couldn’t hide his glee as the topic of the possible Tuesday Trump arrest was discussed on ABC’s left wing political show.
Dude, Chris Christie, just switch parties already. You’ve already got the lard like Illinois JB Pritzker.
Former New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie doubts an indictment would benefit former President Donald Trump’s 2024 election chances.
Jonathan Karl, co-anchor of ABC News’s “This Week,” asked Christie on Sunday what he believes Trump is trying to do by announcing that he expects to be arrested on Tuesday and calling on supporters to protest.
“The circus continues,” Christie replied. “I mean, look, he only profits and does well in chaos and turmoil. And so he wants to create the chaos and turmoil on his terms. He doesn’t want it on anybody else’s terms.”
Still, Christie stressed, “at the end, being indicted never helps anybody.”
Such a view heavily contrasts with the prediction by Twitter CEO Elon Musk, who projected Trump would win by a “landslide” if he is arrested. Experts told ABC News Trump could still be elected president if he is indicted or convicted, but they warned such a development would present challenges to the candidate.
