Millington,
TN—At a Trump rally yesterday, Chris Christie climbed the steps of
the stage set up inside a hangar with Trump’s corporate airplane in plain
view. After about two minutes of praising the presidential
front-runner and poking fun at rival Rubio, an open mic caught Trump
telling Christie to “get in the plane and go home. It’s over there. Go home.”
It was a humiliating way of saying that the also-ran was nothing more
than an opening act. As someone on Twitter opined, “…the political
equivalent of leaving the money on the nightstand.”
A Trump spokesperson did
not respond to requests for an explanation.
Hours later, however, Trump Social Media Director and Senior Adviser Dan
Scavino tweeted:
.@realDonaldTrump told @ChrisChristie to go home (as was planned) to be with family tonight. Being blown out of proportion, BIG LEAGUE!!— Dan Scavino (@DanScavino) February 28, 2016
All Trump needs to do to win my vote is tell Christie to go get his shinebox. And you know what? He might do it.— Allahpundit (@allahpundit) February 28, 2016
Even better than Trump not offering Christie a job would be watching him get Borked for AG— Allahpundit (@allahpundit) February 28, 2016
@allahpundit If Trump wins it all and then doesn't give Christie a job, I may die of laughter.— Harold Stickeehands (@StickeeNotes) February 28, 2016
