Chris Christie discloses the incident that led to his split from Trump.
Chris Christie: Trump’s Election Night Declaration was My Breaking Point
Republican 2024 presidential candidate Chris Christie revealed that his breaking point with then-President Donald Trump occurred on election night in 2020. Speaking on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Christie expressed his dismay at Trump’s declaration of victory.
“For me, it was election night 2020 when he stood behind the seal of the president in the East Room of the White House and said the election was stolen at 2:30 in the morning, when not all the votes had even been counted yet. He had no basis to say it.”
Christie, who recently entered the crowded Republican race, emphasized that his campaign is focused on stopping Trump. He believes that Trump’s actions undermined the American people’s belief in democracy.
The former New Jersey governor acknowledged that he had been critical of Trump during his time in the White House, recalling instances when he received phone calls from Trump expressing his displeasure.
“So, you know, we all have our breaking points.”
Trump, who is currently the front-runner for the GOP nomination, has faced a criminal investigation into his efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis launched the investigation in early 2021, and a Georgia grand jury is set to consider charges on Tuesday.
