Republican 2024 presidential hopeful Chris Christie denounced former President Donald Trump’s run at the White House as a way to “undo” his 2020 defeat, and doubled down on his support for FBI Director Christopher Wray.

“This isn’t someone fighting for the American people and their future,” Christie told Fox News Sunday host Shannon Bream about Trump’s 2024 campaign. cares about is trying to undo the loss he suffered to Joe Biden in 2020.”

“He’s a three-time loser, he lost in 2018 — the House of Representatives — lost the White House and the Senate in 2020. And in 2022 he ended up losing two more governorships, another Senate seat, and we barely won the House by five votes… So he’s doing this for himself and for himself alone, and not for the American people,” Christie claimed.

Bream questioned Christie about a recent poll that showed the majority of Republican voters would not consider voting for the former New Jersey governor and asked if he was throwing his hat in the ring “simply as a spoiler for President Trump.” who is the current front runner among the 2024 GOP candidates.

Bream also urged Christie to support FBI Director Wray, who many Republicans have said should be fired or have vowed to impeach if they win the presidency.

Wray will appear before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, and he is expected to face questions from Republican critics who say the FBI director has politically armed the agency against churches, parents and political opponents of the Biden administration. Whistleblowers have also accused the FBI of mishandling the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.

“Look, all those problems happened, Shannon, during the Jim Comey era, and Christopher Wray came in and fired everyone who was on the FBI’s Comey leadership team,” Christie replied. Wray served as Christie’s attorney during the former governor’s “Bridgegate” scandal in 2013.

“These whistleblowers have come out because the atmosphere made it possible now, not during the Comey era, not during the Loretta Lynch era when she was attorney general,” Christie continued. And they didn’t blame Hillary Clinton, which they should have. You know, the fact is, these other people in the race are just looking for a scapegoat. They want to blame everyone. Well, I will. ” tell them who is to blame. Blame Joe Biden and Merrick Garland, who have not provided the kind of leadership in the country or in the Justice Department that you need.
