This is a non-story with a purposefully misleading headline. There’s absolutely nothing noteworthy about a candidate saying that their opponent is going to lose an upcoming debate, regardless of who said it or what party they’re with.
It’s not like any of them can “win” the debate. These stopped being actual debates back when Kennedy showed up on color TV. A Republican hasn’t made a salient point in front of a camera since McCain gave Congress his thumbs down and prevented them from nuking Obamacare. There used to be points and scoring but modern times it all comes down to who looks best in whatever 1.2 seconds of video trends best on tik tok.
It sounds like he was talking about the primary, not the debate. And he’s dropping out, so she’s not his opponent. I don’t care much about what Christie says, but it’s newsworthy when a former contender makes a statement about the remaining contenders.
