Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie on Monday criticized Donald Trump at length in a CNN town hall regarding the former president’s indictment alleging that he kept classified documents at Mar-a-Lago while out of office.
Christie spent most of his town hall time talking Trump’s latest legal battle and the GOP rivals who aren’t addressing the indictment, which was handed down last week by a federal grand jury. “They’re playing political games with you,” Christie warned the audience.
Christie—who helped prepare Trump for the 2020 presidential debates yet eventually split from him over his incessant election denialism— described Trump’s alleged conduct as “awful,” while claiming the evidence against him is “very tight.”
