Chris Christie Just Went Out of His Way to Trash Jeb Bush

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) went out of his way to slam former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) during a Tuesday night interview.

Christie brought up his presidential rival on Fox News when he was asked how GOP candidates should strike the right balance on immigration issues.

"You don't need to be pandering to one way or the other. I'll tell the way you don't do it: You don't do focus-group-tested trips to the border, speak Spanish, and then criticize Asians. I mean, I don't think that's the way you do it," Christie replied.

This was a direct reference to Bush, who earlier this week traveled to the border town of McAllen, Texas, and generated controversy by saying the term "anchor baby" is more applicable to immigrants from Asia than Mexico.

Jeb is more tone deaf than his dad and brother combined.

Christie is the most handsome and well spoken candidate in the race. His policies are terrible. Jeb actually looks fatter than him because he’s so weak.

Trump has the charisma and policies.

Trump upset the usual circular firing squad of conservative candidates. Now it’s RINO hunting season.

He's figured out that attacks on Trump don't work, and as have other candidates, figured out his best case scenario is a VP running mate slot.
