Former President Donald Trump and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christietraded barbs across the online battlefield Sunday, sparring over the looming contest for the 2024 Republican nomination.
The two former GOP elected officials were once allies, with Christie serving a core role with Trump’s debate prep and as a member of the 2016 presidential transition team, but their relationship has since soured. The ex-president apparently being the one to infect Christie with a Covid-19 case that sent him to the ICU for a week— and then reportedly worried mostly about if Christie would blame him for the infection — did not help.
