Chris Christie's 2024 Presidential Bid Takes Aim at Trump.
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie announced his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election, positioning himself as the main antagonist to former President Donald Trump. Christie criticized Trump throughout his announcement speech, calling him "a bitter, angry man who wants power back for himself." He framed his campaign as a choice between "big and small" and accused current and former leaders of dividing Americans. Christie is the ninth Republican candidate to enter the race so far.
