As the battle for the White House rages on, more former allies of President Donald Trump are exposing themselves as turncoats and cowards.
Chris Christie is the most recent traitor amongst the Republican ranks.
Christie was interviewed by George Stephanopoulos, where he called for President Trump to concede to Joe Biden.
Christie also called the president’s legal team a “national embarrassment.”
Fox News has more on Chris Christie's fleeting allegiances:
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on Sunday ripped into President Trump’s legal team for waging unsuccessful legal challenges to his loss in the November election, calling their efforts a “national embarrassment.”
Christie made the comments during an appearance on ABC's "This Week." Asked by host George Stephanopoulos whether it was time for Trump’s legal fight to end and enable a transition, Christie, a longtime supporter of the president, said: “Yes.”
“The president has had the opportunity to access the courts … if you’ve got the evidence of fraud, present it,” Christie said. “The legal team has been a national embarrassment.”
He criticized former federal prosecutor and Trump attorney Sidney Powell for accusing Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp of a “crime,” yet being unwilling to go on national television to “lay out the evidence she supposedly has.”
“This is outrageous conduct by any lawyer,” Christie said. “They allege fraud outside the courtroom but when they go inside the courtroom they don’t plead fraud and they don’t argue fraud.”
Breitbart News with more on Christie's coments:
Anchor George Stephanopoulos said, “Last night we saw Pat Toomey, the Senator for Pennsylvania say it’s time for the president to enable this transition. It’s time for the president to concede. The president’s response was to attack Pat Toomey on Twitter. Is it finally time for this to end?
Christie said, “Yes, and here’s the reason why. The president has had an opportunity to access the courts, and I said to you starting at 2:30 a.m. on Thursday, if you have got the evidence of fraud, present it. What’s happened here, quite frankly, the conduct of the president’s legal team has been a national embarrassment. Sidney Powell accusing Brian Kemp of a crime on television, yet being unwilling to go on TV and defend and lay out the evidence that she supposedly has. This is outrageous by any lawyer and notice, George. They won’t do it inside the courtroom. They allege fraud outside the courtroom, but when they go inside the courtroom, they don’t plead fraud, and they don’t argue fraud. This is what I was concerned about at 2:30 in the morning on Wednesday night.”
Many Twitter users let Christie know what they thought.
Christie, like many politicians on either side, is a coward.
