\n

As he seriously mulls a second Republican run for the White House, former two-term New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is confident he would have “a good chance” of landing a knockout blow against former President Trump<\/a> “under the brightest of lights.”<\/p>\n

During a trip last month to New Hampshire, the state that holds the first primary and second overall contest in the GOP presidential nominating calendar, Christie argued that he has got the debate chops to potentially take down Trump should he face off with the former president, who is now five months into his third White House run and remains the clear front-runner in the early Republican primary polls.<\/p>\n

Christie, back in the Granite State<\/a> Thursday and Friday for a two-day swing, spoke with Fox News after headlining an addiction, recovery, and law enforcement roundtable discussion in Rochester, New Hampshire.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The question for Christie is whether he is best equipped out of the actual or potential contenders in the burgeoning Republican presidential field to effectively take down Trump on the debate stage.<\/p>\n

CHRISTIE ARGUES ‘IT’S NOT GOING NICELY’ FOR TRUMP IN 2024<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I know what I\u2019m good at. I know how to articulate an argument. I know how to make it. I know how to land it. And I feel like I have the ideas that people are genuinely attracted to. So if you have those things, you have a good chance to be able to do it. No guarantees, but a good chance,” said Christie, who is considered one of the best communicators in the GOP and was known during his tenure for the kind of in-your-face politics that Trump has also mastered.<\/p>\n

Pointing to his potential rivals, Christie said “as to the others, you guys will have to judge the others. I just know who I am, and I think you all know who I am and what I\u2019ve been able to do before under the brightest of lights\u2026 lots of people can do things when the lights aren\u2019t the brightest. But when those lights get really bright and everybody\u2019s watching, can you perform or can\u2019t you? And that\u2019s a lot about what these races have to do with.”<\/p>\n

CHRISTIE \u2018TRYING TO FIGURE OUT\u2019 IF THERE’S A PATHWAY TO BEATING TRUMP, DESANTIS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

When Christie headlined a town hall during last month\u2019s trip to New Hampshire, he spotlighted that “you better have somebody on that stage who can do to him what I did to Marco.”<\/p>\n

Christie was referring to his heated exchange with Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida at a nationally televised debate in New Hampshire days ahead of the 2016 Republican presidential primary<\/a> — a face-off that pundits awarded as a knockout blow to Christie.<\/p>\n

“Because that\u2019s the only thing that\u2019s going to defeat Donald Trump. And that means you have to have the skill to do it and that means you have to be fearless, because he will come back at you and right at you,” Christie said. “So you need to think about who\u2019s go the skill to do that and who\u2019d got the guts to do it. Because it\u2019s not going to end nicely, no matter what. His [Trump\u2019s] end will not be a calm and quiet conclusion.”<\/p>\n

Christie placed all his chips in his campaign for president seven years ago in New Hampshire<\/a>. However, his campaign crashed and burned after a disappointing and distant sixth-place finish in New Hampshire, far behind Trump, who crushed the competition in the primary, boosting him towards the nomination and eventually the White House.\u00a0<\/p>\n

WHO’S IN AND WHO’S ON THE SIDELINES \u2014 YOUR GUIDE TO THE 2024 GOP PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION RACE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Christie became the first among the other GOP 2016 contenders to endorse Trump and for years was a top outside adviser to the then-president and chaired Trump\u2019s high-profile commission on opioids. However, the two had a falling out after Trump\u2019s unsuccessful attempts to overturn his 2020 election loss to President Biden. In the past two years, Christie has become one of the most vocal Trump critics in the GOP.<\/p>\n

However, the former governor, a weekly political pundit on “ABC\u2019s This Week” on Sundays, told Fox News Thursday that “there\u2019s one lane that leads to the Republican nomination for president and at the front of that lane right now is Donald Trump. If you want to win the Republican nomination for president, you have to beat Donald Trump and get in the front of that lane.”<\/p>\n

When asked if he would concentrate a potential 2024 campaign<\/a> in New Hampshire, at the expense of the other early voting states of Iowa, South Carolina, and Nevada, Christie said, “I don\u2019t know. I haven\u2019t thought that all the way through yet. But I like New Hampshire.”<\/p>\n

Republican Gov. Chris Sununu of New Hampshire, a popular governor who was comfortably re-elected in November to a fourth two-year term steering the Granite State, is also seriously considering a 2024 run.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I have great respect for the governor. He and I have been friends since before he was governor,” Christie said. “I think he\u2019s a very good governor. And on top of that I think he\u2019s a really good guy. And he seems to be having a lot of fun right now, and that\u2019s good.”<\/p>\n

When asked if a potential Sununu campaign would be an obstacle to a Christie path to the nomination, the former governor said that Sununu will “make his own decision on his own timetable.”<\/p>\n

As for his own timetable, Christie pointed to a decision sometime next month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s an ongoing process. You investigate three different ways,” Christie explained. “First is to talk to people who have worked for you over time and know you well, and to get their opinions. I\u2019ve been doing that. Second is to go to donors and see if it\u2019s something they\u2019re willing to financially support, because you can\u2019t run a campaign for President of the United States without having significant financial support. And third, it\u2019s in your heart. Do you feel like you can get up every morning and feel like \u2018yeah, I know how I\u2019m going to try to win this thing. I better go do it.\u2019”<\/p>\n

“Those are the things that I\u2019m figuring out and when I get enough in all three of those categories, which I\u2019m forcing myself to by no later than the middle of May, then I\u2019ll let everybody know. But I\u2019m not there yet. I don\u2019t know enough yet. And I haven\u2019t spoken to enough folks yet to be able to make a final decision,” Christie added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
