It's nice to hear someone talk who is actually informed and understands the issues from top to bottom. He does his homework. He doesn't play on your prejudices or your stoke your fears, he gives you the truth. I don't think even Biden is as well informed as he is.
Biden does have a mind that works still though. So at this point his mind is what really matters. Now, that could change eventually because of his age. Christie points out the other side or more conservative view, but is not nasty about it, nor silly and definitely more honest. But I will give you that, Christie does not have a dull brain. He is sharp and more well grounded.
@@garufia Could change? The man is CLEARLY suffering from dementia. I have seen it in both grandmothers. He acts EXACTLY as they did/do. He has come closer to completely destroying this country than any ten prior presidents combined managed.
That’s actually exactly what he’s doing…his anti-Trump messaging is designed to manipulate never Trumpers. Some stuff he said is true but that doesn’t make him the antidote.
😅😅😅😅
He spoke the truth about trump
Google Bridgegate
@@Alwayscatlikeactually no. I am voting for accountability, voting for reason. Christy has my vote.
Some yes and some no…he’s just pandering to Never Trumpers. If you hated George Bush, you’ll be very disappointed.
Finally! A Republican standing up to the Sultan of Swindle!
I wish more Republicans were like Christie, ripping off the bandaide! It hurts, but we need to move on from Trump.
There’s plenty of those, but understand that Chris Christie stands for nothing and is no less corrupt than anyone he’s criticizing and I say this as a former supporter of his.
He’s been an ABC contributor for years now and is just pandering to that base.
Neeeever stood up till now....screw him too...
And just what exactly did he swindle,,,,,? All I hear is crickets, so shut the F up.
@@Real_Patriot48 Your orange cult leader lost the popular vote twice, lost the 2020 election, lost the House, lost the Senate, was double impeached, pleaded the fifth 440 times, dragged the results of the GOP midterms to the ground and... fomented an insurrection at the U.S Capitol to subvert the election results, forced the Vice President to anoint him the winner, while his supporters sought to hang him if he didn't comply. Not to mention assassination attempts on other elected officials including the Speaker of the House…. And all this based on a LIE! .... he's gonna lose AGAIN!!!
I am a Democrat but this is a GREAT speech.....how refreshing to hear reason and truth instead of Treason and lies. I like that he references both Democrats and Republicans as men of character.
The guy wants to put medical marijuana patients in jail he is a 💩🥪
Well spoken! Speaking of men of character don't forget the the ladies :>) e.g. wouldn't it be awesome if CC chose Liz Cheney as his running mate!
Google Bridgegate" read about what this man did and tell me if you still like him.
@@Alwayscatlike - I know about Bridgegate and he was WRONG!!! He buddied up with Trump and he was WRONG! As Christie says in this speech, he was WRONG to do those things. Have you ever heard one of the other GOP candidates say that? It is so sad that we are at a point as a people that we can't congratulate another person for just giving a good speech and that we no longer take the time to listen to other people's ideas because we are so right. We are at the point where you are either on Team A or Team B and you hate everything the opposite team says and does.
And I wasn't the only one - ruclips.net/video/6WCj1t8NK0Y/видео.html
As an independent voter who was planning on giving my vote to Biden, voted Libertarian in 2016, this town hall has me moving towards Chris Christie. #ChrisChristie2024
He's NEVER said these things before! Why now? Don't be so easily swayed. He's pandering, obviously! Smh
@@teelee4097 neither did anyone who’s running. So who are you voting for might I ask. The man who he’s talking about; or another rep . Interested in your pick. Either your picking someone who was a coward before (esp anyone who worked in trumps admin) or the coward himself
+1 I will vote for him proudly.
Honestly, if he ran as an independent I think he'd have a shot at becoming President. But as a Republican, there's no way he can get past the MAGA bloc-- at least the completely indoctrinated ones. I'm as left as they come and I'm open to his criticisms about Obama and Biden-- even if I don't agree with them. If you actually listen to Obama's rhetoric about unity, it's straight out of Reagan. But so what-- Christie thinks "libs" have divided us as much as Trump? Fine. At least he has the balls to be honest about Trump. I wish Christie had a better record when he actually was in power in New Jersey, my home state. But back then, he showed some ugly sides to his character-- taking things personally, vindictiveness, demonizing teachers. I don't think he's some saint. But I am rooting for him to do what he's doing, which is the most honest he's ever sounded in his political career.
I'm voting for Trump a 3rd time.
Its not my birthday but this is the best present I could ask for!! This guy on the debate stage is gonna be glorious!
You spelled hilarious wrong.
Happy Hallowe'en🎃
We have to make sure that he gets to the debate stage. Trump will try his influence to prevent it. Or not show up himself.
Take it from a former NJ resident and constituent. He ain't going up against Jon Corzine this time.
That birthday wish ain't coming. You better make another wish. Oh yeah, happy birthday.
Fat boy's campaign is DOA. He's part of the establishment!!!😅
Then do dumb as dumb is and vote for the dumb guy
If I was a republican, he would have my vote. Credit where credit is due👍
He is a Democrat, it's called a RINO
@@Alwayscatlikemaybe a mix of the best parts of the political spectrum is a good idea. If it makes the country work without causing all the chaos and anger then count me in.
@@hawsrulebegin7768 Google ‘Bridgegate’
Same here. Unfortunately he probably is way too cerebral for the MAGA crowd. If he ended up as president one day I would not be as worried as compared to electing one of those other Republican candidates. The rest of the field is sub-par, silly and dangerous.
@@Alwayscatlike anyone dares to contradict El 45, no mater how loyal they were, is suddenly labeled a rino…Btw, your not expanding your base that way…I hope tRump does end up winning the primary because he will be rejected by the majority and lose in the general a second time..
Best speech I heard so far.
Anyone can make a good speech, but most never fulfill their campaign promises once elected. That's how they all get elected. If he was worth his salt, the left and the media would be doing everything they can to destroy him. They're not, because he's one of them, a rino.
Great discussion. Finally someone with guts to go mano a mano with Trump. Can't wait for the debates 😊
If he had done this in 2016 we would probably be nearing the end of his two-term presidency. The one thing he handled well in New Jersey was a crisis, and he certainly would have saved far more lives during Covid than Trump. Not that Republicans care about that-- they even boo Trump when he takes credit for the vaccine!
Whoever wrote the video description is a true comedian! Cheers my friend
you didn't watch it did you?
Donald didn’t take any lobbyist money
Just beautiful ! - I am a democrat and I am rooting for you. Good luck Chris
💯, same here.
We are going to go big. Not a good play on words Big Boy. 😂
Or... maybe Christie understands the irony just fine and is having fun with small-thinking individuals. 😂😂
Very corrupt politician
I'm a Democrat, but I have to tell you, I'm VERY impressed with Christy. If he were to become the Republican nominee I could go there.
Have you EVER heard him speak this way before??? NO!!!
He's in character saying whatever he thinks people wanna hear and judging from you, it's working smh
He’s a good talker even though I disagree with most of what he says and has done. Have to give him credit for being smart and the only republican who’s got the balls to take on the fight.
Yeah...balls and balls of blubber.
Finally, a Republican candidate that tells it like it really is. If the Republican party stands a chance of winning the 2024 Presidential election it will have to be with a candidate like this.
That's exactly why he has virtually no chance of becoming the Repub nominee. His speech was great, but Trump is leading with 60% of Repub votes. They love the orange buffoon & that's who will be their nominee
Leave it to Christie to make his presidential campaign announcement about “choosing big” 😂😂 I’ve been increasingly impressed by his policy positions. I just can’t get past his defense of Chris Wray.
This is prob the only Republican I would vote for if he is the gop nominee. I watched the entire 2 hrs and wouldn’t have gotten thru 4 mins of trump or any of the other pretenders
Sounds like a politician
What was your first clue?
Well, his name. I do know who he is.
How is Chris Christy running I thought GREENPEACE was still trying to roll him back in!
Good One!
Christie is by far best Republican candidate out there. He's not going to win the nomination, but he's definitely gonna deal some damage on Trump.
He has my Vote as an independent.
I think out of the whole bunch , he's the best candidate.
I saw Christie on TV today in either this talk (not going to watch this) or related recent spiel...and he said “TRUMP DOESN’T CARE ABOUT PEOPLE”. That is not a true, honest statement about Mr. Trump who loves America and it’s citizens. Christie is lying already. Desperate candidate representing me, us, on an international level is a big NO. Bridgegate (period). Don’t need any of that either.
If you like Christopher Wray, then you will love Chris Christy.
Christopher Wray's buddy Chris Christy introduced and vouched for him.
In other words, both belong in GITMO locked up.
This guy's known JB 40 years.... And knowing that he's done nothing to stop that man, called him a nice guy... Tells us all we should need to know. He's in the club, he's here blowing smoke and to weaken the rep party, to help get JB in again but running on a premise of a good guy, for America when he stood up there repeating the nasa hoax moon landing narrative for the globalist establishment. Hes a tool literally.
If I like Christopher Wray... unwilling to bend to political pressure in order to facilitate a purely political agenda by far-right extremists... okay, then. I can certainly live with that. Another plus for Chris Christie.
@@jonroesler8155
Can't help stupid.
That is what willful ignorance is.
@@jonroesler8155 Um..... its the other way around...you actually don't know that do you.
How much money are you gonna make off your running again Chris?? 🤑
Christie for President all the way !
Slay the Orange Dragon please Sir
Chris !
Not a snowball’s chance in Hade’s of winning. Why run???
I think that once Trump is out due all the legal issue, he probably stand a fairly good chance. At least he is standing out from the other candidates. All the old school Republicans, like me, that Trump and MAGA have run out of the party will come back to vote for someone like this.
If Chris falls like Biden it will take a crane to pick him up.
Even the crane would have problems.
Listen up Democrats ! A Lecture by Thomas Sowell , 1995. "The Origins of WOKE. JFK Democrats , Rise Up! Lets take Our Party back in 2024. Who will take down the LEFT in 2024? Either RFK, Jr. or President Trump will do! A tag team, two men that know how to fight! Trans-wear for kids at Target! No time for nice.
HAHA I love fat jokes! I have an IQ of 2. Chris is so fat! I eat my own boogers.
And as for T-Rump?
This is a man that I think that I can stand behind and support. Finally, someone balanced, human, with common sense, seemingly qualified and experienced in government and history, and with vision for the good of the USA.
But he forgot to go back to when the REAL dividing of Americans: Ronald Reagan when he started with all of the dog whistles to separate the classes. The only way Obama divided Americans was within people themselves; those that were afraid the POC where succeeding and those that wanted everyone to succeeding. Read history
What an absolute disgrace. One of the worst governers ever
Please make a donation to Chris to help him get on the Republican debate stage - Requires 40,000 donors.
Definitely!
Trump won't debate him. Also one condition for entry is you have to pledge to support the GOP nominee. A non-starter.
@ssinberg Thanks for the Doubting Thomas Assessment...He'll sign the Pledge: No Worries
I am a Democrat and I sent him some money. I could live with him as POTUS
@@ssinbergtrump will probably be in court or in jail.
Vote for Mr. Big!
No chance
Nobody asked for this.
FORGET IT CHRIS THAT SPOT IS SAVED FOR OUR WONDERFUL PRESIDENT TRUMP!! SORRY HE HAS ALREADY WON THE ELECTION!! SAYS GOD THE ALMIGHTY! IN JESUS NAME AMEN 🙏 PRESIDENT TRUMP IS FIGHTING FOR AMERICA 🇺🇸 PRESIDENT TRUMP I GOING TO SAVE AMERICA 🇺🇸 YOU CAN'T DO EITHER!! SAVE YOUR MONEY CHRIS ITS OVER! PRESIDENT TRUMPS NUMBERS ARE 57% WHAT IS YOURS? 0
A great many Republican have been asking for, even praying for, a candidate for 2024 who speaks like this.
I applaud his comments about pharmaceutical benefits managers.
Rational, reasonable, normal. Isn't it time, America? Whether Christie or someone else, isn't it time...?
He will close every bridge in the U.S.A his first day in office.
😂
The people posting positive has no clue about the "Bridgegate' scandal.
@@AlwayscatlikeYes & Thank You!
Not a trump fan but going to vote for him just because of the one sided justice system
Christie, its so NOT your time. I like u but u picked the wrong time to run.
There is no right time for that humungous slob to run.
Some Republican who have speak some of the obvious truths needs to be running after Trump is out due to legal issues (or jail).
He has no chance, this is just a money grab.
Exactly
Outstanding Gov Christie
The GOP has a strong field this cycle, minus Christy. But then again, Christy never has been much of a republican. I absolutely abhor him.
The GOP without Trump is like Fox without Tucker. Without Trump they would lose 50% of their support.
There was 17 in 2016
All these fat jokes are very offensive. I like what he is saying. That matters more than the fact that he loves donuts or McDonald’s
BOO HOO HOO. A beached whale should not run for POTUS.
Trump should have look at himself in the mirror b4 insulting other of overweight.
Always interesting to listen to Christie
No thank you...nope...
Is Donald Trump going to give him a nickname ? Perhaps Krispy Kreme Christie .
Kristy kream , Kristi no bridge , Kristi corruption , Kristi soros
That's deep.
Trump is fat and overweight himself so he can't talk about anyone's weight
Can someone explain to me why he is so hated? I mean i get the beach picture during his time as a govenor, and in general his disagreable personality. But i think that everybody can make mistakes, and they shouldn't be hated forever for those. So does everybody hate chris christie because everybody hates him, or are there actual reasons?
He literally wants to put medical marijuana patients in jail for breaking federal law he is a total 💩🥪
Chris Christie for their key roles in the “Bridgegate” scandal. The scandal involved shutting down commuter lanes at the George Washington Bridge in order to punish the city of Fort Lee's mayor for refusing to back Christie's 2013 reelection effort. May 7th 2020.
You're going down Christie
Earthquake!
To this day, I have no idea what Chris Christie would do as president. This “big and small” thing he’s talking about is an excuse to not have to commit to anything.
It’s ironic that the first politician known as offensive and in your face is criticizing anyone for being offensive.
Yeah, also ironic that a guys who's only in the race to attack another candidate, accuses the other of being a "divider" and making us "small". When your only purpose in a race is to attack one candidate and the people who support him, you gotta a lot of nerve to say something like that.
If Christy gets much bigger and wins he'll replace Taft...
If Christy gets much bigger, he'll have his own moon. Zero chance of him winning however.
@@infinitytoinfinitysquaredb7836 We all know he won't win, but at least he'll have the cojones to call out that cult leader
Refreshing. Hope he wins the Republican ticket.
As a progressive, and having listened to the first 20mins of this mans speech, im glad hes running, and im glad he talks about the history and the analogy of being big vs being small, i disagree with some points, but he is by far the most normal of all the candidates in the GQP.
And Lafayette and the French Navy because without their help, there would be no America.
Great Stuff Governor - chapeau!
Wow, the comments here are very pubescent-just like their favorite candidate.
💩
FINALLY! The first Republican to stand up to Trump in 7 1/2 years! Chris Christie...who knew?
I'd forgotten all about Chris KrispyKreme
Holy Sh-it, thank you, Governor, for the great speech. It was correct, thoughtful, future directed, and correct. More please.
The 2024 Jeb Bush.
Why does a 300 pound man make the theme of this talk “small vs big”… fire your speech writer!
"We're going big!"? Is that title suppose to be a joke?
The debt deal was a pathetic do nothing no fix delay kick the can and we are going to default later versus now.
Chris Christie The Great Republican Divider.
he raised turnpike 300% in new jersey lol
20 votes max nationwide.
Well he is big enough to make a really big fool of himself. He should pass on this dance. Not going to go well for christy boy. LOL
Im liking what Im hearing from this guy. All of a sudden theres somebody I can say isnt total crap. Im VERY impressed with him.
Remember that bridge he closed?
Remember him sitting on the beach during covid?
He's full of hot air
And long winded.
He doesn't have the energy of a statesman to.
Every channel I visit DEMOCRATS love Chris CHRISTIE. I would vote for him.
Wow… full sentences. He’s not trashing people. Im intrigued…!
I’m a Democrat. Used to be a Republican before they started lying 100% of the time. Chris Christie would bring me back. He must filet Trump at every turn. He should have a daily nickname for DJT… it will drive him nuts.
So the democrats are honest? The party that pushes deceptively titled spending bills, transgenderism and global government are the good guys?
I’m an independent and will never belong to either party.
dig it. I have to admit I admire the guy. He did his walk of shame with pride and courage. That took guts
We are going Tall with Donald and Barron Trump !
Terrible take on Nixon. He didn't leave for the benefit of the country, he left because the Senate made clear it had the votes and would convict. If he had the votes in the Senate, he would have done no different than Clinton or Trump. He was every bit as indignant and unapologetic as they were.
The right candidate for our time. Christie 2024!
Christy’s sidechick probably said something about his size. He’s like “I’m not small, you’ll see. I’m going to call every living thing other than myself, small during my next speech. Then you’ll see, bish”.
Who is giving Christie free cheeseburgers to run for president?
Run... i see what you did there... cause that's the last thing he could do... 🤣
What about his audience? They must have gotten some free crap to show up to this snoozefest
@@Cygnus227 they are the fries he's the cheeseburger
Christie is the perfect GOP candidate... for the Dems!!
Here's my take from a former New Jersey resident who voted for Christie twice. He was the first Republican I ever voted for after being a lifelong Democrat, because I just hated the incumbent so much. We had great hopes for someone who was finally going to lower our taxes, stand up to the big government and teachers unions. He was one of my first choices in 2016 and probably could have won the nomination in 2012. After watching part of this I really am tempted to support him as my first choice. But after he took office he talked a good game (there are probably priceless videos still on the Internet of him taking it to teacher unions in town halls). I liked him and voted for him again in 2013. But New Jersey is just as much of a sh!thole after as before he took office.
I voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020. This was an excellent speech from someone who is an underrated orator. And Christie's criticisms of Trump are pretty fair for the most part. But my question is, could he do any better. Based on my experience with him as my governor, I'm not confident of that
And he is the only GOP candidate who supports FBI Director Christopher Wray who anyone else would fire on Day 1. Let that sink in. Christie is part of the swamp.
If there is one thing that I have learned about politicians , it is to not judge them by their words , but by their actions !
Going BIG yep we can see that!
Chris "Crystal Pepsi" Christie paid you guys for this lmao it's SO OBVIOUS
I am a Democrat and I would vote for him
He’s literally calling trump out using trumps words and promises and trumps record! I want to hear people in this comment section rebut or refute what he’s saying ! I want someone to say he’s lying !!? Btw don’t call him a liar and not say what he’s lying about and in the same breathe love the liar he’s describing ! This man is calling trump out on trumps actions !! FACTS!
I'm fat too. He gets my vote.🥴
Poor dude’s gonna lose his arse … Too long winded .
What is this man's problem other than being a rino?
Choose Big
Choice Christi
Choose America.
00.1% acceptability anyway is part of the circus
Dems could always re-register as a republican for the republican primary in their states and vote for Chris Chsristie and vote trump out in the primaries.
He shared many opinions that make sense.
I don't think "We are going BIG!" Is the best slogan for him. Did he hire the Bud Light marketing team?😂
He choose that because it’s the best way to deal with it.
He’s a big man, a fat man…….just like tens of millions of us.
I would rather have a fat man who tells me the truth.
Nobody wanted this.
Nobody deserves this.
"WE" didn't allow it. Previous Presidents did!!!!
😒 no woman is going to wake up at 8 months 30 days pregnant and go get an abortion.
Any procedure preformed on a woman that far into a pregnancy is due to an unfortunate event in the fetus's development.
Christie is like a guy next to you in a bar. Interesting to BS with, far more reasonable than Trump, but not someone I'd actually want in the White House.
He is the front runner, for the next weight watchers commercial.
well him and trump are tied for that spot
Get that shit
