GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie offered a sharp personal attack on former President Donald Trump and his family, blasting his one-time ally as a bad person and comparing Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner to Hunter Biden, in an exclusive sitdown with The Post. Kushner netted billions of dollars in investment from Saudi Arabia just weeks after leaving the White House — drawing comparisons from Christie to the disgraced first son.

Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie suggested on Friday that he’s “living rent free in Donald’s head,” after former President Trump shared a photo of the former New Jersey governor sleeping.

Right after Joe Biden’s election victory in 2020, former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman got a phone call. Whitman, a Republican, had endorsed Biden in the race against then-President Donald Trump. Now, the caller said, Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris wanted her cell number. No one ever called.

Christopher Shays, a Republican from Connecticut, endorsed Biden in 2020 but says he is now...

Former Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was booed at a conference in Washington, D.C., after criticizing the leadership of former President Donald Trump. "I'm running because he's let us down," Christie said to a crowd at the Faith & Freedom Coalition event on Friday, referencing Trump. "He has let us down because he's unwilling to take responsibility for any of the mistakes that were made and any of the faults that he has and any of the things he's done, and that is not leadership everybody. That is a failure of leadership." At that point, several people in the...

2024 GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie went ballistic over President Donald Trump for previously suggesting he may not participate in the GOP primary debates. During an interview on Fox & Friends, host Brian Kilmeade played a clip from Trump’s recent interview with Bret Baier, where he said he didn’t feel the need to participate in the primary debates because his poll numbers were demolishing other Republican candidates. “Christie is, I guess, 1% or less. Many of them, Nikki Haley’s is a 2%. So why would I allow people at one and 2% and 0% to be hitting me with questions?...

Nearly all Republican presidential candidates have either vowed to reform the top ranks of the FBI upon assuming office, enact sweeping structural reforms or dismantle the bureau entirely. Only one major GOP candidate — former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — has explicitly said he would not fire FBI Director Christopher Wray. Florida Gov.
