Chris Christie to announce 2024 presidential bid.

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is set to announce his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination on Tuesday, positioning himself as a moderate alternative to frontrunner and former ally Donald Trump. Christie plans to appeal to establishment-friendly Republicans and independents, and begins his campaign with the support of a new super PAC called "Tell It Like It Is." Other candidates who have already announced bids include Nikki Haley, Asa Hutchinson, and Tim Scott, while Mike Pence and Doug Burgum are expected to join the race soon. Christie's 2016 campaign was short-lived, and he later became a close adviser to Trump before turning on him following the 2020 election.
