Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has officially joined the race for the Republican nomination for the presidency, making him one of ten candidates vying for the top spot.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBeware of a leader that never made a mistake, never did anything wrong; and when something goes wrong, it\u2019s someone else&#8217;s fault.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Christie, a two-term governor and former federal prosecutor, made the announcement on June 6th in New Hampshire, a state considered to be a make-or-break location for presidential candidates. As the state with the longstanding First In The Nation (FITN) Primary status, New Hampshire holds a tight grip on the nomination process.<\/p>\n<h3>Christie Takes on Trump<\/h3>\n<p>Leading up to his announcement, Christie wasted no time attacking the Republican frontrunner, former President Donald Trump. Calling him a \u201cself-serving mirror hog\u201d and a \u201cnarcissist,\u201d Christie cautioned the audience to be wary of a leader who never admits to making mistakes. He even poked fun at Trump\u2019s campaign promise to build a wall on the U.S.\u2013Mexican border, saying, \u201cWe haven\u2019t gotten one peso.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christie, who has adopted a \u201cTell It Like It Is\u201d campaign slogan, didn\u2019t shy away from discussing his own mistakes. When asked about his biggest mistake as an elected official, he immediately named the \u201cBridgegate\u201d scandal, calling it \u201chumiliating\u201d and the biggest shock of his life. The scandal left Christie plagued for years with the suspicion that he lied about his involvement in shutting down lanes during rush hour traffic on the heavily congested George Washington Bridge leading into New York as political payback to a Democrat mayor who didn\u2019t endorse his re-election campaign.<\/p>\n<h3>Christie\u2019s Appeal to Voters<\/h3>\n<p>Despite his past controversies, Christie has already won over some New Hampshire residents. Former state Rep. J.P. Marzullo admires Christie for being a successful Republican in a blue state like New Jersey and finds him straightforward. Nancy Ryan, a registered Democrat, and Marie Mulroy, an Independent, appreciate Christie\u2019s genuine interactions with voters, unlike some other rehearsed candidates.<\/p>\n<p>As the race heats up, it will be interesting to see how Christie\u2019s campaign progresses and whether he can overcome his past scandals to win over voters.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Will Christie\u2019s \u201cTell It Like It Is\u201d approach resonate with voters?<\/li>\n<li>Can he overcome the Bridgegate scandal and other controversies?<\/li>\n<li>Will he be able to stand out among the crowded field of Republican candidates?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: the race for the Republican nomination just got a lot more interesting with Christie\u2019s entry into the fray.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Christie has joined 10 other Republicans in the race for the presidential nomination.
