He never really liked Trump, but now that he has dropped out of the presidential race, Chris Christie has endorsed him, perhaps so that he can get a post in the administration if Trump wins.
He might want to be Vice-President, or perhaps, because he has mentioned his being a prosecutor in many of his speeches and ads, he might want to be the person in charge of the Department of Justice.
But, at any rate, once he made his endorsement, he has been in the position of the submissive lap dog that does the bidding of his master.
His master has made some rather startling pronouncements recently from threatening to send disruptors to Bernie Sanders rallies, threatening that if he does not automatically get the nomination at the RNC Convention there would be riots, and now announcing that what he wants to happen may have to happen with the backing of the Second Amendment.
Christie is doing what a good boy does and has been explaining what Trump actually meant, this explaining what he actually means after he has said something odd becoming a common practice.
“I don’t think he meant literal riots. I think he meant political riots. If someone goes in with the most delegates, the most votes, and then they are denied the nomination by what they consider to be political insiders, I think there would be real upset at that convention.”
What is a “political riot”?
“The party is the people who belong to the party and vote in the party. It’s not the people in Washington D.C. or on K Street,” Christie said. “[If] we are going to start having do-overs here, I’ll take one. I don’t think that’s the way the system works.”
