Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie criticized President Donald Trump’s legal team Sunday morning, calling its continued legal challenges and allegations of widespread electoral fraud “a national embarrassment.”
On ABC’s “This Week,” Christie repeatedly chastised Trump’s lawyers for alleging fraud in interviews and press conferences despite their lawsuits pleading otherwise, and called for their legal challenges to end.
“The legal team has been a national embarrassment… They allege fraud outside the courtroom, but when they go inside the courtroom, they don’t plead fraud and they don’t argue fraud,” Christie said.
He also called out Trump lawyer Sidney Powell, criticizing her for accusing Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp of committing a crime, only to be “unwilling to go on TV and defend and lay out the evidence that she supposedly has.”
“I voted for [Trump] twice,” Christie added, “but elections have consequences, and we cannot continue to act as if something happened here that didn’t happen. You have an obligation to present the evidence, [but] the evidence has not been presented.”
Trump’s legal team, led by former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, has said without evidence that millions of votes in multiple swing states were switched from Trump to President-elect Joe Biden, and has falsely alleged that the amount of votes tallied in cities including Detroit and Philadelphia exceeded the number of registered voters living in them.
One of the lawsuits Giuliani led in Michigan used data that reflected towns in Minnesota.
Christie also pointed to conservative media figures who have criticized Trump’s legal team for their refusal to provide evidence.
“If you are unwilling to come forward and present the evidence, it must mean the evidence doesn’t exist,” Christie said, referring to Fox News’ Host Tucker Carlson’s recent criticism of Trump’s legal team along similar lines.

So Crisco knows all? TRAITOR!
Keeps hiding behind “we”. Speak for yourself, tubby.
He’s in on the take
How can anyone trust a man who lives in New Jersey, the home of the Giants, and roots for the Cowboys.
We cannot continue to act as if something didn’t happen here that did happen
Fixed it!
LOL (2nd home)
Says it all.
The “national embarrassment.” is that the USA can not execute an honest election. These same pricks would never endorse an election run the same way in another country. The anti-Americanism in our leaders should scare the hell out of you, it does me. If we lose this, we have lost the republic.
Krispy Kreme.... a large amount of Chaff to separate from the pure Wheat.
Fat boy is worried about his connections. And his “counseling” of Trump for the debates.
New Jersey might have been won with Dominion software.... think on that... for ole bammy’s arm in arm pal.
How can anybody trust a man who recommended Christopher Wray as FBI head to replace sleepy Jeff Sessions?
Again, with the “there’s no evidence”.... NONE for YOU to see you lying fata@@. YOU KNOW THIS mr. heavy duty prosecutor. The COURTS get the evidence.
National Security. Watch and Learn, Krispy Kreme, and wipe the sugar from your...lips and fingers, Jelly boy.
The “man” that gave us FBI Director Wray. Nuf said!
He’s in on the take
A couple dozen donuts are expensive here in NJ.
Follow the money. He’s living like a rich man on a politician salary.
I saw that tidbit today.
Also rumors are that McCarthy did the same sort of thing on Maria Bartiromo. I watched that show but didn’t interpret what McCarthy said like that.
Anyway, Chris Christie....he can’t be trusted. Seems to me that the Republicans.....such as they are....are tired of backing President Trump.
The GOP should be out there beating the drums but, but, but....well I suppose an argument could be made that it’s time to show the evidence.
As for me, I will happily wait until Dec. 14 and so should the rest of these a**holes.
It is a national embarrassment that Republicans are so quick to concede and side with their enemies.
Christie is right. Trump’s lawyers have to prove their fraud case and quit losing so these cases. If they can’t, Trump needs to move on to a new strategy such as his legacy or 2024.
HEY HIPPO ......YOU ARE DISGUSTING!
