Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie recently slammed the crowd for booing at Florida’s GOP Freedom Summit, claiming their “anger against the truth is reprehensible” via Media Ite.
After beginning his speech the Republican presidential hopeful tried to speak, but was quickly met by jeers and boos from the crowd, demanding he get off the stage.
It has been noted that since running for office, Christie has been a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump unlike a majority of the Republican presidential field. As a result, MAGA supporters often berate Christie during public events and GOP conferences.
Instead of allowing the crowd to continue to berate him, he quickly accused them of fearing the truth.
“Yeah, well, now it feels like home. Thank you all very much. Let me let me first thank the chairman and everyone here. Yeah, look. They were a shock here for Trump. I’m going to fall over dead. Now, look. Now, look, every one of those boos, every one of those catcalls, every one of those yells will not keeping. Yes, sure will not solve. One problem we face in this country will not stop and will and will not and will not make this country better. Your anger, your anger, your anger against the truth is reprehensible. When you think about the problems, when you think about the problems that our country and this world is facing, when you think about that, this type of pettiness, this type of pettiness is beneath. Beneath the process of electing a president. And and as people and as people watch today. As people watch today, if your arguments are so strong, if your arguments are so great and mine are so bad, then just keep quiet. Let me make my awful arguments and then you can just reject them out of hand. But the problem is the problem is the problem is you fear the truth.”
