| Chris Christie quit his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination this week. And despite all his failings and foibles over the years, it’s a blow to the party, as he “was the last high-profile GOP contender who was fighting for whatever remains of the soul of a Republican Party,” national affairs correspondent John Nichols writes.
Christie’s departure has swung the door wide open for Nikki Haley, who according to a new CNN poll, is now running numbers up closer to Trump’s. But what does that mean, given Haley’s failure to condemn Trump in any meaningful way? As Christie noted on Wednesday: “She’s going to get smoked, and you and I both know it. She’s not up to this.” |
