Christie: Donald Trump does not actually believe the 2020 election was stolen
“I believe, given what I know, that Donald Trump does not believe that the election was stolen. That's what I believe from knowing him for 22 years and from being with him in much of the pre-election period and him expressing his very genuine concerns about the…”
Christie advocates raising Social Security retirement age and means testing
“On the entitlement side, I think I'm the only person who's been talking about this and saying out loud, we've got to consider raising retirement age and we've got to consider means testing and eligibility for social security.”
Christie: Donald Trump was a better 2016 choice than Hillary Clinton
“So I defaulted into Trump because I thought he was a better choice than Hillary Clinton. And by the way, still do think he was a better choice than Hillary Clinton.”
Christie: Trump, DeSantis, and Ramaswamy foreign policies are hopelessly naive
“And this is where I think that the Trump DeSantis, Ramaswamy foreign policies are so hopelessly ill-informed and naive.”
Christie: I would order federal prosecutors to take over local prosecutions
“What I would do would be to instruct the attorney general to instruct the U S attorneys in the cities with these kinds of problems. That we are taking over the prosecution of violent and drug crime in those cities.”
Christie: Soros group is electing liberal prosecutors who refuse to prosecute
“This is the Soros group going around and electing these completely liberal prosecutors who say, no, I don't, I'm not going to prosecute these crimes anymore.”
Christie: I would not have brought the NY or Georgia Trump indictments
“I would have indicted both federal cases. I would not have indicted the New York case or the Atlanta case as to Donald Trump.”
Christie: Sending Donald Trump to prison would not make sense
“I don't think that it makes any sense for Donald Trump to go to jail, and it's not just because he's Donald Trump. It has more to do, quite frankly, with the fact that he'd probably be 79 years old Before he'd be ready to go to jail.”
Christie: Actions of January 6th rioters were unlawful and require imprisonment
“What I want to say about it though, is that what they did on January six was Unlawful. It was extremely serious and it requires imprisonment.”
Christie: Trump is running for president to get retribution against enemies
“No, I think he wants retribution from the seat of power for everybody who thinks did him wrong.”
Christie: Trump would have willingly accepted overturning the 2020 election
“I don't think he would have any, he would have had any problem with the election being overturned. And I think if it was, he would have been more than happy to have his rear end sleeping in the white house tonight.”
Christie: Trump is the only president since Bush 41 not humbled by office
“Every president going back to Bush, 41, every one of them, regardless of my disagreements with them on policy were matured and humbled by the office, except for him. Well, so the office made him worse. It made him a worse person.”
Christie: Trump 2016 campaign was too disorganized to conspire with Russia
“That campaign was so bad and so disorganized, they couldn't have arranged a two-car funeral, let alone conspired with the Russian government to interfere with the election.”
Christie: Trump wouldn't face prosecution if he returned documents when requested
“If he had turned over the documents he illegally had at any point when he was being requested to from February of 20, 21 through to when the search occurred, there would be no prosecution.”
Christie: Kushner and Ivanka made $40M+ yearly in White House, $2B from Saudis
“Jared and Ivanka making 40 plus million dollars a year while they were in the White House, getting two billion from the Saudis to invest after they leave the White House”
Christie: Save America PAC paid $60k to Guilfoyle and $208k to Melania's stylist
“That same organization paid Kimberly Guilfoyle's 60 grand to give a three-minute speech on January sixth and pay 208,000 dollars to Melania's stylist as political strategy.”
Christie: Endorsed Trump in 2016 to stop Hillary Clinton
“I endorsed him because I was convinced he was going to be the Republican nominee for president. And I didn't want Hillary Clinton to be the president.”
Chris Christie: Ukraine joining NATO is a foregone conclusion
“I think it is now a foregone conclusion that Ukraine will be admitted to NATO, and frankly, it's got to be now, I think, one of the penalties and one of the prices that Putin pays for his aggression.”
Christie: $877B defense budget shows clear waste given artillery shell shortages
“There's no doubt that when you see us spending eight hundred seventy seven billion and we don't have 155 millimeter artillery shells that there's waste.”
Christie: Would deploy National Guard to border, not invade Mexico for cartels
“No, I, no, I w I would not. I would put national guard at the border to work with customs and border patrol to stop the fentanyl cartels from getting in to our country.”
Christie: New York City is at its worst point since the 1970s
“It is the worst I've seen New York City since the late seventies.”
Christie: White House interference in DOJ began under President Obama
“I think that started in the Obama years with Eric Holder. When you appoint your wingman attorney general, I guess that's what happens. And the fact is that It's continued through the Trump years and now through the Biden years.”

Friedberg: Vivek Ramaswamy won on dynamism but failed on debate policy
“I think Vivek was by far the winner on dynamic. He had the hardest hitting biggest comeback with a very close second being Chris Christie. But I do think that Vivek got taken apart when it comes to content. And I have real concerns about his personality. There…”
Calacanis: Christie and Ramaswamy are strong candidates due to self-reliance focus
“This is why I think Chris Christie and Vivek are like really good candidates is because they're not looking at handouts or blaming the government or looking to the government to solve problems, but looking at your community, looking inside yourself and saying,…”
