Don't say "cartoons about Christie endorsing Trump pretty much write themselves"

You need to give proper credit to the author: Chris Christie

source: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/christie-past-comments-trump

"one of the carnival barkers of today."

"thin-skinned."

"the kind of thing that people say when they have no experience and don't know what they're talking about."

"painfully naive."

“He shouldn't be making fun of people with disabilities. It’s just not worthy of someone running for the president of the United States."

"Trump is acting like a 3-year-old."

"What’s that tell you about what we can expect if things go sideways when you go into the Oval Office? What are you going to do? Just go upstairs to the residence and say I’m not playing?

"You do not need to be banning Muslims from the country. That's, in my view, that's a ridiculous position and one that won't even be productive."

"Showtime is over. We are not electing an entertainer-in-chief. Showmanship is fun, but it is not the kind of leadership that will truly change America."

(of course Christie is categorically wrong about this -- Trump has profoundly changed the country)

"This makes no sense. I've met [Mexican] President Nieto a number of times. I don't think if we present him with a bill he's going to pay for it. This is not negotiation of a real estate deal, OK? This is international diplomacy, and it's different."

"I tell everybody who goes to a Donald Trump event, if you get to ask a question, just ask him 'how?' I don’t care which of the things he talks about just ask him, 'How? How?' I can answer 'how?' because I’ve done it; that’s the difference between a governor and Donald Trump."
