Chris Christie is very serious about Bruce Springsteen. Chris Christie also has a bit of a temper.
Both of those things were on vivid display at a town hall event on Tuesday, when a woman suggested that “The Boss” had asked the New Jersey governor to stop using his music at events.
“But I was under the impression, I thought I heard that Bruce asked that none of his music was played at your events because he didn’t believe in your politics,” she said before being cut off by Christie.
“No. Never did that,” Christie shot back. “Nah, you’re wrong about that. Bruce has never asked me to do that. He never has. No, you’re wrong. In fact, I saw Bruce just a week and a half ago.”
The woman dug a deeper hole when she mentioned that Christie had been dancing with Bon Jovi at a benefit last weekend in the Hamptons.
“Well, no, that I was doing this weekend and I wasn’t dancing with Bon Jovi. Actually, I was dancing with Jamie Foxx. So, if you’re going to be cute we should get the story right. I saw Bruce about a week-and-a-half ago and he had every opportunity to tell me not to. He didn’t and he never has told me not to do it.”
“Listen, I know him and you’re wrong,” he added.
Why is Chris Christie such a big baby? Good grief he can’t seem to be able to deal with even mild criticism. What’s he going to do if Putin glares at him? Hurl some nukes at Russia?
The “Christie Blows Up” part of the headline is certainly accurate…The Gov looks like he seeing “The Pie” daily.
Christie is a bully. He wouldn’t even let the woman talk. Same old, same old. He doesn’t like what someone is saying and runs them down.
It is pretty funny, like two high school kids arguing in the hallway between classes. The guy has so many hot buttons that it would be a miracle if he lasted the emotional marathon of a candidate running for president.
Nah, probably they’ll engage in a ritualized aggressive display by stripping to the waist and wobbling their man-boobs at each other.
