I don't hide my emotions from people. I am not a focus-group tested, blow-dried candidate or governor.

The people elected us to end the talk and to act decisively.

Hillary Clinton: putting big government spending financed by the Chinese ahead of good-paying jobs for middle-class Americans. Is she guilty or not guilty?
Chris Christie

Donald Trump wants to look at this situation [with immigrants] and deal with it in a humane way, and quite frankly, you know, I think this is the kind of thing people expect from a president of the United States.
Chris Christie

We have a man [Donald Trump] who understands the frustrations and the aspirations of our fellow citizens.
Chris Christie

If you give me the chance and give me your vote I will protect America from the wars that are being brought to our door step.

Mom spent the time that she was supposed to be a kid actully raising children, her younger brother and younger sister. She was tough as nails and did not suffer fools at all. And the truth was she could not afford to. She spoke the truth, bluntly, directly, and without much varnish. I am her son.

Now, in New Jersey, we have more government workers per square mile than any state in America. But since I've been governor we now have fewer people on the state payroll at any time since Christie Whitman left office in January 2001. That's the right direction, Mr. President, not the wrong direction.

I'm a conservative, pro-life governor in a state where it is really tough to be both. A state like New Jersey, with lots of Democrats, but still we cut taxes, we balanced budgets. We fought the teacher's union.

Let me be clear: America and the world are measurably less safe and less respected because of the Iran deal Hillary Clinton helped cut.
Chris Christie

Sometimes people need to be told to sit down and shut up.
Chris Christie

You see, Mr. President - real leaders don't follow polls. Real leaders change polls.

It is our obligation to stop Hillary Clinton now.
Chris Christie

The answer is I am not committed to doing anything in a new administration or not.
Chris Christie

Only in America, where someone like me could have the opportunity to seek the highest office the world has to offer. Not only can all of us achieve whatever dream we want to achieve because of the place where we live and the opportunities it gives us, but that we not only can do it together, but we have to do it together!

This president [Barack Obama ] has seen personnel records of people who have sacrificed for the American people and for the federal government stolen by the Chinese and he's done nothing in return.
Chris Christie
Image
I think America needs lots of tough people. Not just me. I think America needs to get tougher, all of us.
Chris Christie

And the greatest lesson that mom ever taught me though was this one. She told me there would be times in your life when you have to choose between being loved and being respected. Now she said to always pick being respected.

Since the president's [Barack Obama] lost all of that [majority in Senate], he now has decided he's just going to write laws on his own. He's going to give us edicts, as if he's a king. And that is a petulant child. He's refusing to listen to the will of the American people, which is they reject his policies.

We cannot make the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States someone who has risked America's secrets and lied about this to Congress and the American people about it day after day after day.
