A lot of people seem to have misinterpreted the tweet.

He corrected it:

To clarify confusion on Christie's Pence comments: he was praising Trump choosing Pence, a governor, not "another big mouth from Congress."

From the actual article:

He praised Trump’s selection of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, saying the candidate needed someone with executive experience.

And Christie said he was pleased Trump didn’t choose “another big mouth from Congress,” an apparent sling directed at former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who contended with Christie and Pence for the vice presidential role. Christie and Gingrich do not have a good relationship, and Christie in 2012 called the former House speaker an “embarrassment.”

The jilted partner can't keep his mouth shut. Since Trump can't either, we could be in for a Twitter treat.
