Chris Christie drops out of GOP primary

[Independent thinker]

Nothing confirmed yet (Update: now confirmed), but there are multiple reports on social media that's it's coming shortly. I suspected this would be the case. Christie has no realistic chance of getting the nomination and staying in the race is only splitting up the anti-Trump vote. Trump is polling under 40% now in the New Hampshire primary. It's probable most of Christie's support will go to Haley and that could put her over the top in that state. I imagine Christie has ultimately been convinced by the donors and the party apparatus that it's best for him to bow out for the sake of saving the party from another Trump disaster.

The guy is stupid as a bunch of rocks. With great support for Trump in all 50 states by a large margin, Christie was stupid enough to think he could win being the anti-Trump. If this is the campaign he wanted to run then he should have been running for the democratic nomination. You don't have to be a Trump ass licker but you ain't gettin nowhere by being the anti-Trump in the Republican primaries. Guess he finally realized that. He should have just run on Republican/Conservative principles and not mentioned Trump at all.

" With great support for Trump in all 50 states by a large margin" is only misplaced hope not reality.

Let's compare Iowa after NH is done.

However, Haley, if she gets waxed in her Home State, will have significant problems ahead.

Only Spaz could make an OP about Chris Christie to be about Trump.

There's a new TDS action figure out now....from Tazbro.
