Gov. Chris Christie has finally taken the gloves off when it comes to Republican presidential rival Donald Trump, attacking the GOP frontrunner's quick-fix solutions on immigration as something that "hurts the credibility of the Presidency" and saying that Trump's views on entitlement reform ignore the facts.

In announcing his candidacy for president last month, Trump said he would "build a great wall" along the entire U.S.-Mexico border to stem illegal immigration, boasting that "nobody builds walls better than me, believe me."

-snip-

Speaking with CNBC in a Keene, N.H., diner on Tuesday, Christie derided Trump's "great line" about having the U.S.'s southern neighbor pay for the wall, saying it belied a lack of understanding of the complexity of the issue.

Instead, Trump advocated growing the U.S. economy to help shore up the ailing trust fund.

"The math doesn't support Donald's position," Christie said in his CNBC interview. "It's not just about growth. You still have to deal with the facts."

Maybe that is true, I’m inclined to agree.

But Obama has already destroyed the Presidency.

Right? Mr. Unfit for anything wants to run America? The only world leader he has anything in common with is Kim Jong In.

Yes, Governor... a 400 pound glutton without a modicum of self-restraint is exactly what we need to restore credibility and dignity to the office.

Meanwhile: Chris Christie tries to relax on a local beach when 6 people from Greenpeace try to push him back into the water.

Krispy is trying to fulfill his role as the designated attack dog for the pre-Florida primaries. Too bad he’s such a wuss.

What’s Christie’s support in the polls, like 1%? So why does he think he’s relevant to anything?
