“I don’t remember you coming and strongly resisting Donald Trump’s comments on the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape. You didn’t defend him, but you didn’t withdraw your support,” Wallace asked Christie on Tuesday. “I didn’t hear you, after he called African nations ‘dumb nations’.

I don’t regret that choice, I still don’t regret it today. I would not vote for Hillary Clinton today, if that choice was made, “he said.” So that’s not what I’m saying. But what I’m saying is that, you know, I evaluate these things one at a time. You chose places of things where I didn’t speak. And there were a number of things that I talked about. ”

And he said, you have one last chance,” said Christie. “And I said to let Joe Biden speak. If you let him speak, he will be hurt. And he gave me a thumbs up and left the Oval Office. And interrupted him 71 times in 90 minutes. So, no, he didn’t did, that was not the debate that I advised you to have. ”
