Christie says Trump welcomed back to debate

As Rubio continued to speak, Christie kept interjecting, “there it is, there it is”, seeking to show the audience that Rubio’s words proved his idea that he is a canned politician reciting memorized lines.

“The shame is that you would actually criticize somebody for showing up to work, plowing the streets, getting the trains running back on time when you are never been responsible for that in your entire life”, Christie told his rival. Marco Rubio (Fla.) for giving the same damn speech over and over again, no matter what the question, because he’s simply not qualified to be president. Marco Rubio would be a prime target for candidates looking to knock him off as the GOP establishment’s choice for the 2016 nomination, and that was soon confirmed in Saturday night’s debate.

But Chris Christie wasn’t having it.

“When I’m president of the United States, we are going to re-embrace all the things that made America the greatest nation in the world”, he said.

As for the vote in question, which was on the Hezbollah International Financing Prevention Act of 2015, Rubio was not the only senator missing for the vote: they all were. “You just simply haven’t”.

He went on to attack Rubio’s attendance record in the Senate.

“You have not been involved in a consequential decision where you had to be held accountable”, Christie said. After Christie’s response, Rubio repeated his statement nearly verbatim, saying, “This notion that Barack Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing is just not true”. He repeatedly tried to make the same point about Obama, which gave Christie more and more chances to make the same point about Rubio’s stump speech. He is trying to change this country. You didn’t even want to go back. And then you stayed there for 36 hours and then he left and came back to campaign.
