Chris Christie Rips Off Ted Cruz? Against Hillary, ‘I’ll Beat Her Rear End’

Chris Christie Rips Off Ted Cruz? Against Hillary, ‘I’ll Beat Her Rear End’

A possible title for this ongoing Republican primary race: “Fifty Shades of Crazy.”

While campaigning Wednesday morning in New Hampshire, Christie boasted of the threat that he would pose to Hillary Clinton in a general election debate.

“You know the last person she wants to see on that stage in September — you’re looking at him. You know why? She’s been running away from federal prosecutors for the last six months. Man, she sees a federal prosecutor on the stage — I’ll beat her rear end on that stage. And you know what, after I do, she’ll be relieved ’cause she’ll just be worried I was gonna serve her with a subpoena. It’ll be a relief just to lose the debate.”

This remark might sound familiar — because it perfectly resembles something Ted Cruz said a month ago while campaigning in Iowa.

“We do know that Hillary told her daughter Chelsea, ‘Well, gosh, I knew it was a terrorist attack while we were out telling the American people it wasn’t,'” Cruz said. (And no, that wasn’t an actual, direct quote from Hillary Clinton.)

He continued: “You know I’ll tell you in my house, if my daughter Catherine, the 5-year-old, says something she knows to be false, she gets a spanking. Well, in America the voters have a way of administering a spanking.”

Well, this campaign sure is striking the right tone.

Update: In fact, we at The National Memo have just obtained what we believe might be an exclusive video of Chris Christie attempting to make good on his threat against Hillary Clinton.

For five years, you worked for the City of New York in its Special Litigation Unit handling law suits against the city. You have been the clerk to Judge Arthur Engoron since 2019, getting up in the morning and traveling by subway into Manhattan to your office in his chambers, or sitting beside him in court, advising him on cases, filings, motions – the constant flow of legal documents and questions that any judge in a big city court deals with constantly.

Donald Trump is once again living in the past, trying to resurrect a Republican political debacle that even the Freedom Caucus has abandoned: Obamacare repeal. “The cost of Obamacare is out of control, plus, it’s not good Healthcare. I’m seriously looking at alternatives," he spewed on Truth Social on Saturday.
