According to Chris Christie, Donald Trump canceled his press conference because he is scared of potential incarceration, despite Trump’s claim that he is doing so to present evidence of election fraud. Christie argues that Trump never listens to his lawyers but made an exception this time because he fears ending up in jail. Trump’s campaign did not respond to inquiries about his potential worries regarding imprisonment.
Trump has been falsely alleging that the 2020 election was stolen from him through fraud, even before all the votes were counted. His efforts to overturn the election results included pressuring Georgia’s state and local election officials, culminating in an infamous recorded phone call where he attempted to coerce the Secretary of State to find enough votes for him to win. This call sparked a criminal investigation in Georgia, resulting in a racketeering indictment that could lead to Trump being imprisoned. In response, Trump promised a press conference to release a report on election fraud but later decided to present the information in court filings on the advice of his lawyers.
Chris Christie dismisses Trump’s explanation and alleges that Trump is simply trying to distract from the fact that he is facing multiple indictments, including a RICO indictment. Christie points out that Trump lacks evidence and fears that speaking without restraint during a press conference could worsen his legal situation. Christie made these remarks at a candidates forum where he appeared alongside other Republican presidential hopefuls.
Trump is currently facing four indictments, including one by the Justice Department for his role in the January 6 coup attempt and one in New York City for falsifying business records. Despite these legal challenges, Trump remains the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
Chris Christie raises concerns about nominating a candidate who is out on bail in four jurisdictions and calls for a recognition that this is not a winning formula for the country.
