If Trump loses the nomination he’ll simply return to Mar-a-Lago and ‘carp and moan and complain,’ said Christie

Chris Christie doesn’t expect Donald Trump to concede if he loses any primary election.

The former New Jersey governor was discussing focusing his campaign efforts on New Hampshire with Jonathan Karl on “This Week” when he was asked if he believes Trump would concede in a primary he loses.

“I don’t care,” Christie responded.

He explained “no one will expect” Trump to concede based on the fact that he still hasn’t publicly admitted he lost the 2020 presidential election — or given up his unfounded claims of widespread election fraud.

    They wanted this. An angry misinformed mob to do their bidding and distract from the fact that we still don’t have affordable healthcare.

      I don’t agree. I think that’s what they wanted, yes. What they got was far from a mob that does their bidding. They do his bidding and he does things in his interest alone.

      Look at the other primary candidates trying to be the best imitation of him. They even have an Indian guy spitting random hate. It would make for hilarious satire if it wasn’t reality.

      Any sensible conservatives left the party long ago. Those with some sense left vote out of spite against the Democrats, but even they are waning in that support.

      That party is in chaos and he does well in that setting.
