Donald Trump called out Chris Christie after his appearance on ABC News’ “This Week.”
Trump threatened Christie with a potential investigation saying, “Can anyone believe anything that Sloppy Chris says? Do you remember the way he lied about the dangerous and deadly closure of the George Washington Bridge in order to stay out of prison…For the sake of JUSTICE, perhaps we should start looking at that very serious situation again?”
I just watched Sloppy Chris Christie be interviewed on a ratings challenged “News” Show, “This Week With George Slopadopolus,” on ABC Fake News (By the way, what the “hell” happened to Jonathan Karl’s hair? He looks absolutely terrible! It’s amazing what bad ratings, on a failed television show that was forced to pay me $16,000,000, can do to one’s appearance!). Can anyone believe anything that Sloppy Chris says? Do you remember the way he lied about the dangerous and deadly closure of the George Washington Bridge in order to stay out of prison, at the same time sacrificing people who worked for him, including a young mother, who spent years trying to fight off the vicious charges against her. Chris refused to take responsibility for these criminal acts. For the sake of JUSTICE, perhaps we should start looking at that very serious situation again? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT
Two of Chris Christie’s allies were convicted and sent to prison over the scandal.
Those convictions were thrown out in 2020 by the Supreme Court.
Christie was never implicated in the 2013 scandal, which saw two of Christie’s allies convicted and sentenced to prison for their role in a scheme to punish a local Democratic mayor who refused to back Christie’s reelection bid.
The aides were accused of closing lanes on the George Washington Bridge to create traffic problems for the mayor of Fort Lee, N.J. They faced charges including conspiracy, fraud and deprivation of civil rights.
Prosecutors never sought criminal charges against Christie, saying they could not prove criminal misconduct “beyond a reasonable doubt” and could not prove Christie knew about the lane closures. Christie consistently maintained his innocence.
The Supreme Court in 2020 ultimately threw out the convictions against both of the former aides, ruling in a unanimous decision that, while the scheme involved deception and corruption, it did not violate federal law.
