Chris Christie

yakov_a_jerkov — 03.05.2023 Как я уже, кажется, говорил, Крис Кристи — единственный из потенциальных кандидатов в президенты от республиканцев, кто открыто атакует Трампа. Без подмигиваний и намеков, а прямо называя Трампа по имени.

Я не знаю, принесет ли эта тактика успех — если и принесет, то, скорее всего, не самому Кристи, у кого, на сегодняшний день, очень мало шансов. Но как может принести успех подход "Трамп — величайший президент, я с ним во всем согласен, но голосуйте не за него, а за меня"? Он и не приносит — посмотрите на рейтинг ДеСантиса.

Возможно, конечно, что Трампу предъявят обвинения по другим делам, и это вынудит его сняться. Забавно, что республиканцы годами насмехались над тщетными надеждами демократов посадить Трампа, а в итоге это стало их главной надеждой.

Вот отрывок из сегодняшнего интервью Кристи Хьюитту. Обратите внимание на выделенную часть про Путина — это совсем не то, что республиканцы, даже и не трамписты, говорят о Трампе. Собственно, на часть про Китай тоже обратите внимание.

CC: [...] And to the extent that President Trump doesn’t want to participate in them [debates], people should wonder why. And I think it’s because he doesn’t have a lot of serious answers for the problems that are facing the country right now. All he wants to do is go back and re-prosecute the 2020 election because his feelings are hurt. He’s a child in that regard, and he should…

HH: Now he does have one good point, Governor. He’s got like a 30-40 point lead over everyone. Governor DeSantis is in second place. And he says why would someone this far ahead debate? And what’s your response to that?

CC: Because this is about letting the American people decide who’s best prepared to be president. This is not running for student body president. And if he really cares about the country, and I have deep questions about that, but if he really cares about the country, then he’s going to get up there, and he shouldn’t be afraid. I’m sorry to see that Donald Trump feels like if he gets on the stage, he’s at risk of losing his lead. If, in fact, his ideas are so great, if his leadership is so outstanding, then his lead will only increase if he gets on the stage, not decrease. But obviously, he’s afraid. He’s afraid to get on the stage against people who are serious. And I’m sorry to see that he’s that afraid of it. If he’s that afraid of that, how can we count on him to do any better with President Xi than the failures he had in his first term with China? How can we expect him to do any better with Putin than having set the groundwork for the invasion of Ukraine, which his conduct towards Putin certainly helped to establish? This is a guy who seems like he’s afraid. And if he’s afraid, he has no business being president.
