Insiders say Donald Trump is ‘disgusted’ by Chris Christie

He's definitely backed away from gay marriage by saying it's settled law.

I don't know if this is true. If it is good on him. I think we will hear more information from the transition team today on the talking head shows or tomorrow about cabinet choices.

Apparently there is some bad blood between Christie and Trump's Son-in-law's family. So who knows for sure. If it's because of bridgegate and he's really trying to snuff out corruption in his administration, then good for him. But I'm not sure the purpose is quite so altruistic.

Christie, when he was a U.S. Attorney, locked up Dad:

Two chief reasons, according to interviews and multiple reports: the George Washington Bridge lane-closure scandal and the opposition of Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and trusted adviser, whose father was prosecuted by then-U.S. Attorney Christie more than a decade ago.

Charles Kushner, a real estate developer and a top donor to Gov. Jim McGreevey and other Democrats, pleaded guilty in 2004 to tax fraud, making false statements to federal authorities about campaign contributions, and witness retaliation.

Charles Kushner admitted hiring a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, arranging for their encounter to be videotaped, and then mailing the tape to his estranged sister in retaliation for her cooperation in a federal investigation into his finances.

He was sentenced to two years in federal prison in Alabama, where his son would visit while in graduate school.

I have to wonder what Christie was thinking when he decided to support Trump. Maybe he forgot that he pissed off Trump's son-in-law, who apparently is a valued and trusted advisor, by sending Dad to an Alabama federal prison, or that he'd just let bygones be bygones. What an idiot.

No he hasn't.


That is not a backing away from anything.

There are so many reasons. Makes me want to be a fly on the wall. We will read about it in a book some day.
