Yeah, I read one where the Klin-ton campaign thought they'd easily top 300 electoral votes.

D'oh!

Is there a sufficient number of crows for all these people to eat?

Doosh...if she had not been rejected by (with the resulting lost votes) tractors...she would be the president-elect today...tractors are to blame...

Poor Chris Christie. There's a chance that the Trump camp was just tired of his shit.

quote:

President-elect Donald Trump is so disgusted with Chris Christie’s handling of the Bridgegate scandal that he’s kicking the New Jersey governor out of his inner circle, The Post has learned.

“Trump thought it was shameful that Christie didn’t take the fall for [convicted aide] Bridget Kelly,” said a source close to the transition team. “Trump is really angry that Christie is sending a soccer mom to jail. He believes 100 percent that Christie was behind it all.”

quote:

Tensions had been building for weeks between the two men, with some Trump insiders questioning Christie’s loyalty in the last month of the campaign, when it looked like Trump would lose.

Christie canceled appearances on Sunday shows after the “Access Hollywood” video of Trump bragging about sexually assaulting women was leaked on Oct. 7, the source said. He also failed to attend the second debate, and canceled campaigning with Trump in the last weekend of the race, the source said.

quote:

Christie will now likely focus on what job he can get for himself in a new Trump administration. But a third source said the Trump team views him as virtually “unconfirmable” for a cabinet-level post.

“They want to drain the swamp, and having Christie there is just plugging it up,” the source said. “He was tolerated in the past because he was viewed as a kind of nice Tony Soprano. But now that Trump is the president-elect, those days are over.”

Some close to Trump regarded the New Jersey governor as “a stupid thug who really needed to go,” the transition-team source told The Post.

I've heard General Mike Flynn's name thrown out there.

The secretary of Defense must be at least seven years removed from active duty as a commissioned officer in the armed forces under federal law, because the position is intended for a civilian.
The National Security Act of 1947 originally required an interval of 10 years after relief from active duty, but it was reduced to seven years in 2008.

Congress would have to issue a waiver, as it did for George Marshall in 1950, to overrule the restriction.

Christie is the only candidate I swore I would not vote for. I said so safely because there was no way he would prevail in the primary election. He is a scoundrel.

"Spectacularly wrong" doesnt even begin to cover how off this dude was.

Indeed.

So, the question is, in two years, at the mid-term elections, shall we all have forgotten this? Including the political press?

Yes, but he and Trump have been longtime friends. I fully expect Christie to have some job in his administration.
