“I want your support,” Christie said to an audience in Manchester, New Hampshire. Christie previously wanted to be his party’s presidential candidate in 2016, but pulled out after poor results in the primaries. Christie is considered a former confidant of ex-President Donald Trump.
The 60-year-old directly attacked the ex-president in his speech: “Donald Trump has made us smaller by dividing us even further and playing one group against another every day.” Trump is obsessed with the mirror, never admits a mistake, always blames accidents on someone else and always wants to take credit for anything that goes right, Christie said. Trump commented on Christie’s speech on his Twitter replacement Truth Social as “boring” — it was hard to bear.
Christie also criticized that there are candidates for the candidacy who “say we don’t care what happens in Ukraine”. Those politicians said Americans shouldn’t care “that Russia wants to subjugate a free and freedom-loving country,” lamented Christie, detailing US history in his speech.
Trump had already stated last November that he wanted to run again in the 2024 presidential election. The field of Republican candidates has since grown considerably. In addition to former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, several others have announced their candidacy in recent weeks. Trump’s former deputy Mike Pence has also submitted the necessary documents – his official announcement is expected this Wednesday. Trump is ahead in internal party polls. (sda/dpa)
