Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie announced his presidential run in New Hampshire, criticizing former President Donald Trump the most out of all the candidates. Trump hit back at Christie’s speech, calling his message “small” and “not very good” via his Truth Social platform. Christie’s chances of success seem slim with Trump currently leading the Republican primary field. This deepening political conflict comes as the potential Republican candidates gear up for the 2024 presidential race. With Christie’s less-than-stellar approval rating in New Jersey, it’s uncertain whether his critical stance toward Trump’s divisive tactics will cost him the nomination.
