I hate when I agree with Chris Christie, but damnit, I have to respect that he’s saying what needs to be said. Great video - but you know what’s funny? Everyone keeps talking about how Trump violated his oath of office, which he did, but I’ll bet Trump paid no attention to that oath. None, nada, zilch.

For Trump, those were just words he said to get into the cookie jar. A bit like Veruka Salt in Willy Wonka agreeing to follow the rules so she could loot the candy factory.

He didn’t want, or expect, to win the first time. But damn, he loved living in the White House and having everyone kowtow to him. He wants that again, but more so. Being president made him feel like the big man he knows he isn’t, but wants so badly to be.

And yeah, if he gets back in, he’s going to punish anyone who didn’t agree that he was the coolest, bestest guy to ever sit in the Oval. Oaths, responsibility, service mean nothing to him. Of course you know all this.

What I don’t understand is why it’s not blindingly obvious to the GOP.

I think it IS obvious to them, but they’re either fearful or figure they’ll benefit somehow by towing the line.

It's frustrating to see him like this so late in the game.

It really is. He was on point last night.

Adding, on the debate, again. Christie, who won’t and can’t win, was the only one on the stage actually running for president. The others were just wanking.

Precisely.
