Chris Christie, the Nation’s Largest Governor, took to the Sunday shows to bash his rivals today, and Fox News host Chris Wallace hit him with a haymaker.
“Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace on Sunday asked New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie if he was being hypocritical in criticizing Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, his rival for the GOP presidential nomination, in missing votes during his White House campaign.
Wallace noted that Christie himself has not been in New Jersey for 72 percent of the time since announcing his own Oval Office run.“When you look at the total, over 200 days in 2015, which raises the question — who are you to criticize?” Wallace asked.
Latest News UpdateChristie countered that he is “on the job every day,” saying that it is possible to do his work as governor on the road, while Rubio has to be in the Senate to cast a vote.
Christie has a long way to go, but he’s received some support from conservatives like George Will who seem him as a more forceful, experienced challenger for Donald Trump. He’s currently at fourth place in New Hampshire, in striking distance of Cruz and Rubio but well behind Trump, and he’s likely to stay there if he makes many more gaffes like this one.
