If Trump loses the nomination he'll simply return to Mar-a-Lago and 'carp and moan and complain,' said Christie

Chris Christie doesn't expect Donald Trump to concede if he loses any primary election.

The former New Jersey governor was discussing focusing his campaign efforts on New Hampshire with Jonathan Karl on "This Week" when he was asked if he believes Trump would concede in a primary he loses.

"I don't care," Christie responded.

He explained "no one will expect" Trump to concede based on the fact that he still hasn't publicly admitted he lost the 2020 presidential election — or given up his unfounded claims of widespread election fraud.

Ooh, I bet that was painful to type out. It kinda stung just looking at it.

At least he's still dumb enough to make his campaign about a different candidate instead of himself.

I agree but it wasn't that long ago that all these asshats were slobbing on his knob. You don't get to help create a modern day Hitler and then when it's convenient come out like you were always Anti Hitler. I'm happy for you that it's suddenly beneficial to barely do the right thing but you shouldn't be celebrated for shit.

I know you're not celebrating him specifically but it seems that's what the media is focusing on. Fuck all these traitors. Being the best traitorous anti American fuckboy isn't quite the win one would think it is.

It doesn’t matter. He has no chance of winning anything. Regardless of the shitty things he’s done, I appreciate that he’s calling out Trump now. Republican voters need to hear it from Republicans and I don’t really care how the media paints Christie as long as they deliver the message. Trump is a bigger threat than ever. Most candidates either support him or tiptoe around without acknowledging how dangerous he is. We need someone to take him head on. Frankly, it’s better when those people are former supporters who got to see things up close.
