    How do you figure? He is quite literally the most unpopular governor in NJ history and abandoned the state to pursue a job in Trump’s administration.

      You are not wrong, but not being popular in New Jersey doesn’t equal not being popular in the greater United States. The man is a pure ass to everyone around him, but that is a trait Conservative Americans like. They want a loudmouth ass who will scream at clouds. He has a long history of working with both parties and getting things done. Don’t underestimate him when Trump is knocked out. Can he beat Biden, doubtful, but he can win the Republican nomination.

        Historically, the guy who can’t even win his home state doesn’t win the country. But I guess stranger things have happened.

        I will admit that he’s had more of a spine in terms of being consistent in his criticism of Trump since their initial “breakup.” Most other members of the GOP talk out both sides of their mouth, criticizing Trump one week and sucking his dick the next (Ted and Mitch come to mind first).
