Ron DeSantis.<\/p>\n<p>In referring to the young woman believed to be the gunman in the Nashville shooting, Christie said the shooting is an example of a country riddled with anger and mental illness that politicians are only addressing by calling for more penalties for offenders instead of reforming the cause of them.<\/p>\n<p>Christie said that Trump was part of the anger problem facing America, explaining away his once staunch support of the Republican president by saying it was a strategic mistake supporting Trump in 2016 after losing his own bid for the White House.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all made a strategic error in 2016, supporting Trump,\u201d Christie said, with one man shouting from the crowd that he forgives Christie for supporting Trump. Christie condemned Trump for what he said was putting his own need for self-retribution above the needs for America.<\/p>\n<p>Christie said the only reason that Biden was in office is because the Republicans chose \u201csuch a bad candidate.\u201d He referred to his own status as a popular Republican governor in a very Democratic state to make the point that Republicans can win over Democrats \u201cwith the right candidate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In driving home his point about Republicans needing to field better candidates, he talked about failed Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker and Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan we please not nominate Kari Lake for anything again and can we please not nominate Herschel Walker for anything again,\u201d implored Christie.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving few stones unturned in bolstering himself as the best choice out of the growing list of potential contenders for the GOP nominee, should he run, Christie also criticized DeSantis for deeming Ukraine a territorial dispute that the United States should not be involved in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you get your property survey and find out that the neighbor\u2019s fence is six inches on your property, that\u2019s a territorial dispute,\u201d he said, remarking \u201cwould someone please make a wake up call to Tallahassee.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christie said that helping Ukraine is an investment for America, making the argument that if the United States doesn\u2019t take a stand against the authoritarian forces of Russia, it will serve as a green light for the Kremlin and its allies to embody a massive geographic takeover of ally territories with major residual impacts on America\u2019s foreign trades and thus its economy.<\/p>\n<p>He also criticized DeSantis for saying that America has no interest in getting involved in proxy wars with China, saying that if he were president, he would most definitely focus on ensuring that China does not succeed in what he characterized as an obvious plot to become the supreme global ruler.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to live in a world where America is not the leader of the world,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Christie also had criticism for former Vice President Mike Pence, who is considering a run for president.<\/p>\n<p>While Pence has denounced Jan. 6, Christie said that when the former vice president said, \u201cLet the people decide\u201d to a question about Trump\u2019s belief that the election was stolen, it is a sign that Pence lacks the leadership needed to safeguard the U.S. Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHell, I\u2019ll answer that question,\u201d Christie said, emphasizing that any suggestion to \u201csuspend the U.S. Constitution\u201d should be \u201cdisqualifying\u201d for a presidential candidate.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Christie spoke to a crowd in New Hampshire on March 27 about extending the minimum age to receive social security at an appearance he made as part of his \u201cmaybe\u201d campaign for a bid for president.
