One of the former big names in the Republican Party that President Donald Trump destroyed is New Jersey Establishment Republican Chris Christie, a politician seen by many in MAGA as being an utter and irredeemable RINO because of how he is constantly on the attack against Trump instead of attacking Democrats.
Such is what Christie did yet again in late December of 2025 when he appeared on ABC’s “This Week” and freaked out over everything from Trump’s sharp criticism of Rob Reiner to the renaming of the Kennedy Center to the Trump-Kennedy Center. As could be expected, that earned him a sharp backlash online.
Christie began by sharply attacking Trump over the president’s post about the notorious Hollywood leftist Rob Reiner, snapping, “Now Merry Christmas to you too, Mr. President. Look, this is a pretty strange week. Just think about it. He sends out that disgraceful post on the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle.”
Continuing, Christie attacked Trump for tricking the MSM into highlighting his many accomplishments, and attacked him over the board of the Kennedy Center’s decision to add his name to it. The New Jersey RINO snapped, “Then he puts his name on the building named after an assassinated President. Then he gives a frenetic national TV speech filled with inaccuracies and really sounded like he was yelling at the American people that they don’t get how great he’s done so far.”
And, parroting the woke media’s talking points about Trump’s very entertaining plaques under the presidential portraits outside the White House, Christie said, “And then he puts these plaques up underneath the Presidential pictures he’s put on the colonnade, filled with things that you could tell just from reading that he wrote them himself. Read like Truth Social posts, it did, and even figured out a way to get himself into the Andrew Jackson plaque, but as a martyr worse than whatever happened to Andrew Jackson.”
Still not done, Christie then started rambling about Russia and NATO, the usual talking points of the Uniparty RINOs, saying, “Look, he does all this, John in a week where 60% of the people in the country say the economy is no better under him than it was under Joe Biden. The war continues to rage on in Ukraine that he said he was going to settle in 24 hours, and Putin continues to manipulate him to deteriorate the 80-year NATO Alliance.”
Concluding, Christie insisted, “And twice now in the past month, you’ve seen Republicans break from him on Capitol Hill, on both the Epstein files and ACA subsidies, to sign discharge petitions to repute both the speaker and the president. It’s not a strange week, John, it’s an awful week, and the President better wake up to the fact that going to Rocky Mount, North Carolina is not going to solve his problems, and that he better start solving the American people’s problems, or our party is going to have a big problem.”
