Chris Christie rips Kushner's dad: ‘One of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes that I prosecuted’ — Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie took several shots at White House senior adviser Jared Kushner in his new book “Let Me Finish,” alleging that in an act of spite …
Editor: Turns out that Christie was a failed (miserably so) presidential primary candidate who sought positions within the Trump Administration, and, now that he has been rejected on an Administrative level, is selling books and making money from people who are sucker enough to buy and read his stuff.
Look, ask yourselves this: eactly what has Chris Christie done for the Conservative Movement? Seriously, can you give me a single lasting result to his so-called "conservative positioning?" So, he is not "conservative" if that entails a driven effort in building a consevative coalition. In fact, who is doing that . . . . . building a conservative coalition?
Radio talk show hosts. Top of my list, "radio talk show host" and I am not talking about Bill Press or NPR.
In fact, they (conservaties) are radio hosts, first, because they want to add to the conversation and fight the lies coming from the Left. They fight the Left, stand up against them, and very often, expose their political treachery. I mean, one day the Left loves God and Country, the next day, the very next day, someone like Cortez comes along, and suddenly they all want to be like Europe. Turns out you cannot have open borders and a sovereign nation. As far as "God" is concerned, the Democrat representatives at the 2012 National Convention, three times voted to take mention of "God" out of their official national statement but the leadership would not allow it Turns out that voting agianst God inherited bad optics. That was then, this is now. Seven years later, this week, Pelosi has made a move to take "so help me God" out of the oath for office in the House. 'nuff said about all that.

Update: There are literally hundreds of local conservative talk shows, nation wide, but no category of the Pundit Population has done more for the conservative cause than Donald J Trump. The man is a one man army.
Libs don't have "radio hosts." Rather, they own the national media, and the Democrat Party has six to ten members who didicate themselves to appaeaances on the national televised talk shows such as Meet the Press and whatever, appearing each and every weekend to make their case. Republicans? Well, they complain about conservative talk shows, but they are not willing to affect the national dialogue on their own. Of course there are exceptions to all of the above, but the general picture is extacly as I have presented.
And, unless they decide to sell a book or two, the GOP has no plans to change its strategy, I call it "strategic silence," another phrase for "lets do nothing and hope and pray our talk show community can fight our battles while we pretend to disapprove."
