Iowa Caucus Tonight

You don't want to know why he dropped out when others you have never heard of stayed in. Who would have gotten most of his potential votes? DeSantis or Haley?

And why are you evading his 12% poll numbers in NH? Are you suggesting he could not have waited until the NH primary vote? What did he have to lose? A lucrative bribe? Did Nikki send him a thank you note with flowers for NH?

If it were anyone else, I'd ask "what you're theory?"

But I won't because I don't want to know.

His poll numbers suggest he'd finish a dismal 5th in Iowa with less than 5% of the vote and a distant third in New Hampshire at least 20 points behind Haley. And after that, there's Haley's home state of South Carolina, which hasn't been polled much, but the few that have been posted show Christie again somewhere around 5-6% at best. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/republican-primary/2024/south-carolina

Why would he stay in given that reality?

I didn't ask about why he would. I asked you if you would. Answer the question.

If I were Chris Christie, I wouldn't have entered the race in the first place (and I'd strongly consider Ozempic).

He had no chance in Iowa. Why be humiliated? Or maybe he thinks Trump will give him a job. I don't know. But I don't consider it suspicious at all.

You did not answer my question.
Why do you and no1 both evade the question by digressing?

How the f888 would I know what I would do in his place?

I'm not in his place and don't have the information, experiences, personality or a hundred other things similar to him.

Your question is utterly moronic.

I think it is interesting how determined you are to evade the question. You know what poll numbers he had. Are you trying to fool me or yourself?

I would never drop out with a 12% poll number in NH. What kind of idiot drops out with double digit poll numbers in NH? Even if I was out of campaign money I would let it ride. What would I have to lose? It isn't really my money anyway.

If Christie gets a job in the Haley administration like Pete Buttijet did in Biden's administration will you say it is just a coincidence or will you acknowledge I might be onto something.

Now give me your assessment of Asa Huchinson. Should he have dropped out before the Iowa vote since his chances were about hopeless compared to Christie?

Was the DNC unfair to Asa?
