Shortly after Hutchinson's remarks, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was also loudly booed as soon as he took the stage and throughout his remarks as he also seemingly addressed the Republican divide.
"The problem is, you want to shout down any voice that says anything different than what you want to hear. You can continue to do it, and believe me—believe me, it doesn't bother me one bit," Christie said, who is also running for president.
The Republican fired back at the boos by saying, "You can yell and boo about it as much as you like, but it doesn't change the truth. And the truth is coming."
Christie added: "And all of you need to understand: America needs better than what we've had. And it never makes America a better place, whether it's on a college campus in an Ivy League or whether it's in an auditorium in Orlando, for us to be booing and shouting down opinions we don't agree with."
I'm sure there's plenty of people ready to point out the many ways in which Chris Christie is a piece of shit. But I really do appreciate the way he's willing to actually confront others in his party and call them out on their bullshit. Even among Trumps critics and would be rivals, so many others are retiring, acquiescing, or just desperately tip toeing around the truth to avoid upsetting the flavor aid connoisseurs. But Christie is out their scolding the crowd like obnoxious little shits that they are.
And no, it won't change the minds of the people who are booing him, they already went off the deep end. But it may help shatter the illusion for those who are moving in that direction, who have been living an echo chamber, and who need someone to be the first to point out that the emperor has no clothes.
flavor aid connoisseurs
Nice one.
You gotta appreciate a Lemming who uses the actual product (flavor aid, not the misquoted Kool Aid).
My guess is he's playing the long game. With how these idiots mindlessly follow trump and must reshape their whole beliefs every time he contradicts the last one, Christie is just banking on them mindlessly shuffling to the next hypocritical stop on their train ride of bullshit. Christie probably thinks trump will fall far enough when the results of some of the trials start trickling in. He wants to position himself as the new savior they can worship. He expects them to ignore the previous few years of hate and vitriol they fomented and fall in line with the next guy.
I think they are stupid enough to do it.
I don’t think Christie expects to be an idol to these people, he just wants some political power.
I think Christie was someone who Trump wanted to be VP, until Trump's plane had 'maintenance' issues and Trump was forced to stick around for a meeting with Pence which was Manafort's pick for VP.
Then Christie was put to overseeing the transfer team, which Trump shut down and yelled at Christie because they raised so much money for the transition that Trump wanted for himself. Christie of course tried to explain the money was needed for a proper transfer but we all know how that went. There's an article about that bit for those that may not have seen it.
