"a child's reaction" THANK YOU for your honesty and civility. I don't understand why this isn't obvious to so many others.

It’s stunning, nothing short of stunning to hear a Republican have a normal conversation. No rage yelling, no childish insults, no paranoid conspiracies, no narcissistic boasting, nothing but a normal conversation. Someone who actually has the intelligence and fearlessness to enter an honest debate.

U go Chris call it like you see I lean left but you are refreshing

I love Chris Christie. He is the best and just tells it how he sees it.

[jaxs]

So true. He's telling the truth. Finally.

[cleverusername]

I'm a liberal but I appreciate Chris for having the honesty and balls to speak the truth. I don't like his policies, i don't like his history, but I like that he's undeniably smart, he's ruthless, and he's finally being honest.
He won't win, but he's doing a tremendous public service by exposing trump for who and what he is.

I'm not a Republican but Chris Christie doesn't evade questions. And he seems like a fair man, as fair as any politician can be. He appears to be much smarter than DeSantis, and, HE'S not afraid of Trump.

It is SO satisfying to finally hear somebody call out the obvious behaviour that's been on full display for so long.

[SpencerCokely]

Gov Christie isn’t perfect. But he’s got more courage than every other candidate in the GOP primary combined. Tip of the cap.

[psynetFM]

It's sad in the current state of things how refreshing it is to hear Christie speak. Sane and rational. I miss that

[lastcommodore]

I love the analogy of the child explaining away his bad grades. 😄

[danielmcevoy]

A politician that answers questions intelligently... haven't heard that in... forever.

[therealdoug]

I have to say, Christie actually impressed tonight. Made Pence seem like a corpse.

[Nettamorphosis]

Out of all GOP prez candidates, I would be least terrified with a Chris Christie presidency.

[cannibalgrape]

What a world where Chris Christie is the sane voice in the room.

[petef.]

I watched this. Didn't mean to but it was on. I am a democrat and i thought Christie made a lot of good points. That's all people want is to be able to work out our differences in compromise. I don't hate anyone on the right, I hate that they abandoned science, reality, facts, compromise, justice and decency. If the right wing can ever let go of that traitor chump, we could actually get things done by coming together. As a nation, we could really accomplish big things working together.

"don't allow the showmanship to obscure the facts." SPOT ON. he's got some damn good quotes.

[jayyou]

Honestly, I think this guy could be Biden's biggest threat. He sounds sane-ish compared with DeathSantis or Lying Trump, and many independents might be drawn to him...

[debh]

I like how Chris is trying to relate to this kid and explain conspiracy theories and he doesn’t back down. That’s great !!!

[philosophy]

It's refreshing to see this from people in the GOP.
