Chris Christie's graceful pirouette on Jim Jordan

As a large guy myself, I really appreciate other guys who are on the larger size but are nimble on their feet. Chris Christie’s graceful pirouette from the position he took early in the morning on MSNBC’s Morning Joe that he wasn’t going to weigh in on the Rep. Jim Jordan’s candidacy for House speaker to a position he took just hours later that Jordan should stand down. At breakfast, under close interrogation from Mika Brzezinski about his view on Jordan’s candidacy, Christie refused to take a position observing that as governor he had learned that “legislative folks want to make their own call on this, their own judgement” and that he reasoned the Republican House caucus didn’t “want somebody who is either president or wants to be president to be telling them what to do.” Christie doubled down in response to a follow up by Morning Joe panelist John Heilemann. Christie told Squawk on the Street that the prolonged intramural GOP contest for House speaker made “my own party looks childish.” The former New Jersey governor and presidential hopeful accurately predicted Jordan would fall short which he did, losing a vote from the 200 he had yesterday. And none of that can get done without a speaker.” On Morning Joe, Christie did say the removal of Rep. Kevin McCarthy “was a mistake” and that the deposed speaker hadn’t done anything “that should have necessitated his removal from office.” Christie continued: “Those eight folks decided to remove him really for personal reasons to support Matt Gaetz who doesn’t like him because he wouldn’t rig the ethics investigation for Matt Gaetz.
