GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie said he would not issue a pardon for former President Trump if he were elected president in 2024 and if Trump were convicted of a crime.

In an interview on “The View” on Wednesday, the former New Jersey governor did not hesitate to say “no” when co-host Joy Behar pointed out that GOP presidential candidates Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis said they would pardon Trump and asked whether Christie would do the same.

“No, no, no, no,” Christie said, before Behar finished asking the question.

He drew on his experience as governor in explaining his reasoning.

    Chris Christie can go fuck himself (though I imagine he’s not nearly flexible enough. Ugh sorry for that mental image).

    He belongs in prison too.

      Imagine a world where Chris fucking Christie is the most reasonable sounding republican candidate. Absolutely insane.

      Give him a day or two and he’ll say something terrible to remind you that he is, in fact, a shitbag.

        And he will still be the “best” GOP candidate because he’s just a neocon, not a fascist.
