New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Tuesday criticized “know-nothing, disgruntled” Romney staffers for making noise over the governor praising President Obama’s response to Superstorm Sandy and declining to join the Republican presidential candidate on the campaign trail.
Via HuffPost, Christie said at a press conference Tuesday:
“I told Governor Romney at that time that if the storm landed as predicted that it was going to be catastrophic to New Jersey and unprecedented,” Christie said. “I said to him, ‘Listen, Mitt, if this storm hits the way I think it’s going to, I’m off the campaign trail from here to Election Day.’ And he said to me, ‘Chris, of course. That’s what you have to do. Do your job, don’t worry about me. I’ll take care of things.’ So all this other noise, I think, is coming from know-nothing, disgruntled Romney staffers who, you know, don’t like the fact that I said nice things about the President of the United States. Well, that’s too bad for them.”
