People are still talking about the now preposterous possibility of a Christie presidential campaign that isn’t an abysmal flop. But once folks come back to reality — and even more once Christie comes back to planet Earth and even tacitly admits his career in politics is likely over — there’s a dark story that’s ready to be told. And that is that Chris Christie has stepped on and pissed off enough people on his ascent through New Jersey and now national politics that it is going to be a brutal fall. There’s no soft landing in the offing. This is probably just a hint of what’s coming.
