Former Gov. Chris Christie in his new book unloads on some well known names in the White House, arguing President Trump is being misserved by the “amateurs, grifters, weaklings, convicted and unconvicted felons.”
The former New Jersey governor is settling scores in his book, ‘Let Me Finish,’ which comes out Jan. 29.
He slams White House adviser and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, but he also writes that Trump “trusts people he shouldn’t, including some of the people who are closest to him.”
Christie writes:
Christie claims the president is surrounded by a ‘revolving door of deeply flawed individuals — amateurs, grifters, weaklings, convicted and unconvicted felons — who were hustled into jobs they were never suited for, sometimes seemingly without so much as a background check via Google or Wikipedia.’
Christie writes that Trump “trusts people he shouldn’t, including some of the people who are closest to him.”
Christie asserts that Trump has a “revolving door of deeply flawed individuals — amateurs, grifters, weaklings, convicted and unconvicted felons — who were hustled into jobs they were never suited for, sometimes seemingly without so much as a background check via Google or Wikipedia.”
Christie claimed Jared Kushner executed a political ‘hit job’ against him to get him fired as the head of Trump’s transition team and for keeping him out of the administration.
He contends the president’s son-in-law was acting out of revenge for Christie’s prosecution of Jared Kushner’s father, Charles Kushner, in 2004 when he was U.S. attorney for New Jersey.
Christie’s prosecution of billionaire real estate developer Charles Kushner helped put him on the map.
The elder Kushner pleaded guilty to 16 counts of tax evasion, one count of retaliating against a federal witness, and another count of lying to the Federal Election Commission.
An anonymous ‘high-ranking Trump staffer,’ Christie recounts, called him to warn that “the family is very upset that he says it will be you.”
