There are few of our so-called ‘Republicans’ who deserve less attention to be paid to them than Chris Christie. Christie, you may remember, is another of those who had hoped to gain a position in the first Trump administration and when that didn’t pan out, he then decided to simply go on the warpath against the guy who he had once hoped to work for. He has since been in, what can only be described as, constant attack mode, the purpose of which is really nothing more than a petty act of revenge. Nothing this guy says deserves to have any amount of attention paid to it. And if he still thinks that he has a shot at being president, he’s more than a little delusional!
And it
was just this past weekend that Christie was once again out and about doing
what it is that he does best. It was on Sunday, during an appearance on ABC’s
“This Week,” that ex-New Jersey governor Chris Christie made the claim that
President Trump “plays checkers, not chess.” So says the guy who has gotten his
oversized butt handed to him multiple times by President Trump. I guess his new
hustle is being willing to appear anywhere he might be needed to bash President
Trump. Too funny, Christie, a failed single term governor from a deep blue
state, ranting about a two-term president who’s been the most effective president
since Ronald Reagan.
Host,
and resident propagandist, Jon Karl said, “And this is all happening as we have
this shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, basically no funding for
anything except for ICE.” And he went on to ask, “I mean, where is this going?
What’s your sense?” Christie said, “Well, look, as it continues to impact,
lines at airports. Yeah. And as we get closer to this summer, when people are
going to be going on vacation, you know, it’s going to have to come to a head.
And, you know, when you have a 2.5-hour line in Atlanta, the busiest airport in
the country, this is going to become a huge problem.” To be honest, I could not
care less about his opinion.
Christie
said, “But look what everyone is saying around the table here is an indication
that the president plays checkers, not chess. This is a guy who just looks at
what jump he can make today. Does it look if there’s a double jump coming in
the other direction. So, you do what you do with Iran. You know, think about
what happens with the Strait of Hormuz. You don’t think that what that’s going
to force you to do to deal with gas prices that Donald just talked about is to
relieve sanctions on Russia and Iran, who you’re going to war with?” He added,
“I mean, the American people see this stuff. And my point on this chart is this
goes to competence."
And he
added, “It goes to, are you competent to run the government and make these
decisions? And every time one decision is made, another domino falls. And the
president and the people around him are not considering those things.” What
small amount of relevance this guy may still possess comes from his constant
appearances on these silly, and rather pointless, Sunday ‘news’ shows. Shows
that seem to be dying what can only be called a long lingering death. And it’s
Christie, and those like him, that have played, and continue to play, a part in
that long lingering death. For the very simple reason that fewer and fewer
people care to hear what he has to say.
He’s
been crying ever since Donald Trump ignored his pleas to be part of the first
Trump administration. He thought the Attorney General position was going to be
his landing spot. When President Trump failed to bestow that position on him,
he immediately did a 180 and became the go-to guy for those in the ‘fake news’
media whenever in need of a critical critique of President Trump. Christie is
the one that most of these hacks have on speed dial. But it’s obvious that the
more Christie speaks, the less he’s liked. These days the liberal talking heads
in the ‘fake news’ media just bring him on whenever a ‘Republican’ is needed to
bash President Trump.
But does
it really make a difference what ‘game’ President Trump is playing as long as
he’s clearing the board? Christie is a buffoon. Anyone that thinks Christie
knows enough about strategy to have any idea either way, is an idiot. He can
only comprehend the way things are done, nothing original, no novelty in
anything he proffers. I must admit that I’m getting tired of people who compare
chess and checkers and can play neither game. It’s laughable how those in the
‘fake news’ media continue to parade buffoons like Christie out to try and
smear President Trump. None of these hapless boobs would have the balls to pull
anything like this off.
You tend
to forget just how badly these ‘fake news’ organizations are struggling until
you realize that they’ve had to resort to luring someone like a Christie, or a
Kasich, out in front of their cameras to say something bad about our President.
But I gotta say, trying to achieve any level of relevance by projecting this
loser with a wide-angle lens is not the way to do it. Christie’s only gig these
days is to slam President Trump, for money. And all of these left leaning ‘news’
organizations only have him on for that singular purpose. Yet he’s not really
in the know about anything and is not someone who has any intellectual,
academic, or political relevance to share.
Yup, Christie’s
the guy I’m going to listen to whenever I need a little political insight. Not!
How many of these 80/20 issues has President Trump forced the Democrats, and
more than a few RINOs, into a corner on? Christie is nowhere near aware of what
President Trump has accomplished with the multifaceted tasks that he is now engaged
in. This is ‘world changing’ stuff, but Christie is oblivious to it all. It’s funny
how all of these politicians keep selling President Trump short only to him prove
them wrong each and every day. From illegal immigration to voter ID, and
tariffs, President Trump always seems not one step ahead, but 20 steps ahead,
of this pack of losers.
I doubt very much that
Christie even knows the difference between Checkers and Chess. Those who have
played both know there’s a strategy and tactics when playing either! And both
are beyond the ability of Christie. We all watch what President Trump does for
America every day. It’s amazing to watch him accomplish so many fixes for
things in so many different areas: immigration, domestic terrorism,
international terrorism, government shutdown, election/voter fraud, military
strengthening, our economy, the western hemisphere, and so much more. Christie
is another career politician who thinks himself better suited to be president
than some novice.
