(608 posts)I saw the exchange last night, and he treated her like shit.
The fact that he wasn't even planning to go home, then speaks volumes because he went back on the campaign trail within 24 hours.

(20,822 posts)overwhelmingly keep him in office just last year, even while knowing damn well what he was often like? I'm sorry, but they knew better and they still overwhelmingly put him back in. What the fuck did they think was going to happen? It's not as if his nature and politics was some huge secret.

(50,986 posts)ago. The Bridge shenaningans didn't help much. The assault on school teachers was repulsive. And now he's picking on people who show up at his events.
Yuck.

(20,822 posts)claiming that the "real problem" with education was that teachers were overpaid and that they should make no more than minimum wage. Words cannot express how much this daughter of dedicated teachers hates him right now.

(50,986 posts)Governor Christie and his dismissal of educators?
He's taunting the Trump demographic, building on his pre-Trump taunting of the same group.
It's a disgraceful legacy.

(50,986 posts)Now on his question about the mop... Yes, Governor. Let's talk about the mop's exact positioning...

(82,849 posts)Gov. Christie has a long history of popping off at people who ask him questions he doesn't like. And a lot of that history features Christie getting into the face and space of women. He yells at men, too, but he tries to crowd women. For some reason.

(3,595 posts)Unfortunately, the Democratic Party makes no effort to achieve this. They have the structure to generate and fill a recall petition by using the local county committees (ward healers) in historic terms.
Unfortunately, they sit on their asses.
Same with the unions... N.J.E.A., C.W.A. could generate 20 or 30,000 signatures with no effort.
They too, sit on their asses.
