    I can’t believe I have to say “I agree with Chris Christie”, but here we are…

    Let’s be real about what this is though, Christie is in the primary to sling muck back at Trump on behalf of Desantis, who plans on keeping his hands clean in hopes that he can take Trump down a few notches without alienating Trump’s voters. This is more-or-less a cookie cutter copy of what happened with Christie and Rubio in the last Republican primary, and it worked like a charm, so I can’t say that I even blame them for going back to it this time.

    Will it work out against Trump? Will staying out of it actually help DeSantis build support in the party?

    I’m not so sure, but I damn well know that that’s what the plan is here.
