The Hill: Christie says he'll decide on White House bid in 45 to 60 days

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) said that he will decide on whether to make another bid for the presidency in the next 45 to 60 days.

“I think running for president of the United States is an intensely personal decision. And that’s one that anybody who’s considering it should have the right to make on their own regardless of anybody else’s thoughts on it,” Christine told the Washington Examiner.

Christie, who ran for his party’s nomination in 2016, told the Washington Examiner that the Republican Party should have a “robust primary” given the losses the party suffered over the last four years. He noted that former President Trump is “weaker” now than he was leading up to the 2020 election.

“With Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, you can be sure of the fact that we’ll have another four years of Joe Biden, and that to me is not acceptable for this country,” he said.

in an opponent and pounding away at in in a way that takes a toll.

He shamelessly helped Trump, despite knowing better (and shame on him for doing so), but they are now mortal enemies.

Christie can't win a nomination, but his presence in a GOP primary would be bad news for Donald Trump.
