Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) has surpassed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) in the critical early presidential primary state of New Hampshire, according to a new Emerson College survey re…
Chirstie is an asshole but I at least respect the amount of spite he has in his body, all the other candidates act as though they have a realistic shot at beating Trump, but Christie is clearly running just so he has a platform for revenge. Can’t stand the guy but I’m here for that
I hadn’t heard of this. The article is longer than I care to read. Skimming, seems like this was done to hurt a dem mayor. I didn’t look long, but I did fix a spelling error. Anything worth knowing that I missed?
Christie wanted endorsements from Democratic mayor’s to help his reelection campaign. Some refused. To teach one of them a lesson, he shut down several entryways to the George Washington Bridge - which is the world’s busiest motor vehicle bridge, averaging well over a quarter million vehicles every day - and redirected the traffic through the mayor’s town. It caused a massive traffic jam and a lady died.
I did double-check with Google before I posted, and that’s what all the results said. I tried to check again right now (“busiest bridge in China”, “Chinese bridge with most traffic”, etc), but those results are all things like China’s longest or tallest bridges, with no notes on how much traffic they carry. So I’m going with the GWB, at least until I can find data they says otherwise.
Chris Christie vs Joe Biden is somehow probably the best semi realistic scenario we have to hope for now. Not gonna happen but at least that part will be entertaining

Nobody does spite like New Jersey. Remember Bridgegate?

Wait, is that really the busiest? I would expect that to be in China.

Thanks for the follow-up!
Also Christie is terminally unelectable for high office, so him getting the nom would be great.
Trump Republicans hate him and if he is the party nominee they’re unlikely to show up at all
And he has little chance of winning, even if he somehow beats Trump as the nominee, but the fight will be terrific.
