Chris Christie pushes back on calls to drop out of the race, takes aim at Trump in first major ad blitz
Fox News
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie pushes back against calls from fellow Republicans to drop out of the GOP presidential nomination race in the first major ad blitz of his 2024 bid.
Christie's campaign said the commercial is the first spot in what they tout as a seven-figure ad buy in New Hampshire, the state that holds the first primary and second overall contest after Iowa's caucuses in the GOP presidential nominating calendar.
As Christie runs a second time for national office, he faces a steep uphill climb against former President Donald Trump, who is the commanding front-runner in the race as he makes his third straight White House bid. Similar to the 2016 cycle, Christie is once again concentrating his time and resources in New Hampshire, where independent voters and moderates have long played a crucial role in the state's famed primary.
