Good grief, Chris Christie throws his support behind Donald Trump
Any remaining vestige of respect I had for Chris Christie is now gone.
Donald Trump? He seriously endorsed Donald Trump? For president?
Yup.
Gov. Chris Christie is endorsing Donald Trump for president.
Appearing next to Trump in Fort Worth, Texas, Christie said Trump would "do what needs to be done to protect the American people."
"The one person Bill and Hillary Clinton do not want to see on that stage is Donald Trump," said Christie.
"He is re-writing the playbook of American politics," said Christie, "The best person to beat Hilary Clinton in November is undoubtably Donald Trump," said the governor.
Trump, the front runner for the party nomination, called Christie a great friend and great talent.
Trump, for his part said of the governor's endorsement that "To me, it's a very big endorsement. Generally speaking, I'm not too big on endorsements — but this is the one endorsement I feel very strongly about, that I wanted to get."
Some "conservative" Christie turned out to be, eh?
In 2012 his bromance with Barry sunk Mitt Romney.
And now his endorsement of Obama's GOP doppelganger lends instant establishment credibility to Trump's campaign. Which signals to me that the GOPe flirtation with Marco Rubio is officially over. Because Chris Christie is one of the real GOP insiders. Remember, he was briefly "their guy" when Jeb! first faltered, until, of course, Christie fell flat too.
Whether this means Trump has made peace with the establishment remains to be seen. But it seems likely that he has, and Chris Christie has opened the door for Reince Priebus and the rest of the RNC to get on board the Trump Express.
Which from our perspective means that yes, the light at the end of tunnel is indeed an oncoming train.
UPDATE 26 Feb 2016 15:50:
Not to be outdone, the "other" Christie (Whitman) endorses John Kasich.
C'mon guys. Try hard to care.
