Chris Christie was booed by Republican attendees at a GOP event in Washington, D.C. on Friday, June 23, 2023, after he criticized former President Donald Trump.
He criticized former President Donald Trump, stating that Trump is “not the future of the Republican Party” and that the party needs to “move on” from him.
Christie also criticized Trump’s handling of the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol, calling it “an act of sedition.” The audience, many of whom are Trump supporters, responded with boos, jeers, and chants of “Trump! Trump!”
This incident highlights the deep divisions within the Republican Party over Trump. While some Republicans want to distance themselves from Trump, others remain loyal to him and his policies.
It is unclear how Christie’s criticism will affect his chances of winning the Republican nomination in 2024.
It is still early in the 2024 presidential race, and it is unclear who will be the Republican nominee. However, Christie’s criticism of Trump is a sign that the party is still divided over the former president.
