Dude, old people vote Conservative. And lots of poor ones. That won't fly. And the ones in their 30's plus also won't let that happen. His run is toast. Not that it was anything more than a Quixote crusade anyway.
Nah. This is about doing okay in the primaries where the voters are mind-fucked rightie true believers. Those people are so brainwashed that they'd vote for anyone who cut their health care because "it's the correct thing to do".
Fat fuck Christie will get maybe 10% of the primary vote. He's playing for 2028 when the Orangutan is in jail and he can pose as the "guy who saw it all coming". Not that he'll win anything in 2028 either because he's a corrupt, incompetent, notorious fuckup - which is why he's no longer governor of Jersey.
It's all posing. None of these turds believe anything they say. It's all scripted to play with the morons who vote GOP.
The wiki article points out what a corrupt fuck Christie was and how he supported Trump and sucked his cock until he figured he could make a better move by opposing the Orangutan Traitor.
Christie won the 2009 Republican primary for
Governor of New Jersey and defeated
Democratic incumbent
Jon Corzine in the
general election. In his first term, he was credited with cutting spending, capping property tax growth and engaging in recovery efforts after
Hurricane Sandy. He was re-elected by a wide margin in
2013, defeating State Senate Majority Leader
Barbara Buono.
[1] Christie's second term saw multiple controversies, namely the
Fort Lee lane closure and his various absences from the state.
[2][3] He chaired the
Republican Governors Association during the
2014 campaign. His second term expired in 2018 and he registered as a lobbyist in 2020.

On June 30, 2015, he announced
his candidacy for the
Republican nomination in the
2016 presidential election. He suspended his candidacy on February 10, 2016, following a poor showing in the
New Hampshire primary. Later, he endorsed eventual winner
Donald Trump and was named head of Trump's
transition planning team.
[5] Christie was a close ally of Trump during his presidency, but later emerged as a harsh critic of Trump following Trump's refusal to accept his loss in the
2020 United States presidential election and the subsequent
January 6 Capitol attack.
[6][7][8][9] He announced
his second presidential campaign for the
Republican nomination in the
2024 presidential election on June 6, 2023.
