Chris Christie said something like Trump's WH is full of grifters, convicted and unconvicted felons who were hustled into jobs they were never suited for, sometimes seemingly without so much as a background check via Google or Wikipedia. 3 weeks ago Jim got mad at me for saying Trump was a grifter.

Christie is a scumbag who should be in prison for what he did with traffic. But now he's credible to you...interesting.

So he can't be a scum bag but credible in this instance.

You have been spending a lot of time defending Trump lately.

Sure a scum bag can be right. But if his judgment has validity when he says Trump was terrible, why do you not assume similar validity to his judgment when he says Obama was wrong?

Not defending Trump. Defending the notion of fairness and accuracy, which even Trump deserves IMO.

certainaly everyone should be judged the same but didn't Christie have a lot more access to Trump than to Obama? I can't recall the complaints by Christie about Obama? I'm guessing they were about policy, not character. Most of my issues w/Trump has been character related.
