Chris Christie remains in the picture despite exiting 2024

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie⁢ Plans ‌to Stay Involved After Ending Presidential ⁣Bid

Former New ​Jersey Gov. Chris Christie won’t be fading into⁤ the ⁢background after⁤ ending his​ 2024 presidential bid earlier this week. Sources close to Christie have revealed his plans to remain active and engaged in various ways.

“I wouldn’t plan on‌ him going away. ​What that looks⁢ like​ remains⁣ to be seen, ⁢but he’s ⁣not — ‍he‍ will⁣ not be going away,” a source familiar‌ with Christie’s​ plans‍ told the Washington Examiner.

Christie himself assured the crowd of his ‌continued presence as​ he ended his presidential bid, stating, “I am not⁣ going away. And ‌my ​voice is not going‌ away. And⁢ I’m going ​to continue to say all the things‌ that I’ve said ⁢… whatever⁢ platforms are⁤ permitted​ to me‌ as we go forward.”

Bill Palatucci, ‌a longtime ally ⁢of Christie, also expressed confidence in the former governor’s ongoing⁣ visibility on the national scene. “I have ⁣no ‍doubt the governor will⁤ remain very active and visible on the national scene,” ​Palatucci said. However, ⁣he acknowledged ⁣that it ‌is too early to⁤ determine the‌ specifics of ‍Christie’s future endeavors.

Speculation and Denials

Shortly after Christie’s departure from the Republican primary race, there‍ were reports suggesting‌ that he might join the No Labels centrist third-party⁤ ticket. However, a ‌source familiar with Christie’s ​campaign effort denied any discussions with⁤ No Labels and stated that Christie ‌had never ⁤mentioned the possibility of teaming up with ‍them. ⁢It is possible that ‍donors associated with Christie ‌have initiated‌ these discussions.

While Christie ‍had previously dismissed the idea of joining No ​Labels, his ⁤recent exit from ⁣the⁢ presidential ‌race could ​potentially change his stance.​ Palatucci emphasized that the⁢ interest in Christie from various political and ‌corporate players is a testament‍ to his reputation and expertise.

Future Plans ⁤and Endorsement

Christie’s former⁤ aide‌ suggested that if he doesn’t pursue ⁤a​ career in ​media, he might explore opportunities in business or⁢ sports. ‍The aide⁤ also speculated that ​Christie’s presidential run may have been motivated by‍ a desire for “post-Trump rehabilitation.” However, Christie did not endorse any other candidate after ending his campaign, ​which ‌could be attributed to his potential to‌ earn more money as⁤ an unaffiliated analyst.

Christie’s criticism of former ⁤U.N. Ambassador ⁣Nikki ‌Haley, particularly her refusal to condemn Trump, played a role​ in his decision not to endorse her. A hot mic exchange between Christie and⁤ Haley​ further fueled speculation about their strained relationship.

Despite Christie’s ‍departure from the​ race, there is a write-in effort for President‌ Joe Biden in New Hampshire, hoping to attract some of Christie’s supporters who are dissatisfied with Haley’s alignment‌ with Trump.

Overall, Christie’s post-presidential ⁢bid ​plans are ​still unfolding, but it ⁢is clear ⁤that he intends to remain an influential figure in the political landscape.
