New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) said Wednesday that part of the reason he declined a role in Donald Trumps administration was his wifes refusal to move to Washington, D.C.
"He didn't offer me a job that I thought was exciting enough for me to leave the governorship, and my family," Christie told the hosts of the Boomer and Carton radio show. "Because Mary Pat made really clear she wasn't coming to D.C."
"You would have had to given at least a two-year commitment to be there," co-host Craig Carton noted,
Correct, Christie said.
The New Jersey governor was one of the first failed 2016 Republican candidates to endorse Trump, fueling speculation that he would be given a post in Trumps Cabinet once the real estate mogul was elected.
