Seven NJ Newspapers To Chris Christie: Resign
News media across the Garden State wants the governor gone over his Trump endorsement, failed presidential campaign
New Jersey wasn’t a fan of Chris Christie before he entered the GOP race for president, and now, after a failed White House campaign and his stunning endorsement of Donald Trump, seven newspapers in a joint editorial Tuesday state they want the governor to resign.
What an embarrassment. What an utter disgrace.
We’re fed up with Gov. Chris Christie’s arrogance.
We’re fed up with his opportunism.
We’re fed up with his hypocrisy.
We’re fed up with his sarcasm.
We’re fed up with his long neglect of the state to pursue his own selfish agenda.
“For the good of the state, it’s time for Christie to do his long-neglected constituents a favor and resign as governor. If he refuses, citizens should initiate a recall effort,” the newspapers in a joint editorial stated, as USA Today reports.
In “Step down, Gov. Christie,” the papers add,
“We’re disgusted with his endorsement of Donald Trump after he spent months on the campaign trail trashing him, calling him unqualified by temperament and experience to be president.”
“And we’re fed up with his continuing travel out of state on New Jersey’s dime, stumping for Trump, after finally abandoning his own presidential campaign.”
“For the good of the state, it’s time for Christie to do his long-neglected constituents a favor and resign as governor. If he refuses, citizens should initiate a recall effort.“
