Trump threatens Chris Christie after ABC News interview: 'For the sake of justice'

Source: Raw Story

August 24, 2025 8:56PM ET


President Donald Trump threatened one of his former associates on Sunday after he saw an interview they did with ABC News earlier in the day.

Chris Christie, who advised Trump during his first term, joined the ABC News show "This Week" on Sunday to discuss recent moves the Trump administration made. At one point, Christie said Trump sees himself as "the person who gets to decide everything" and that he "rejects the idea that there should be any separation between criminal investigations and the politically elected leader of the United States."

Trump responded to Christie's claims on Truth Social on Sunday night. "I just watched Sloppy Chris Christie be interviewed on a ratings challenged “News” Show, “This Week With George Slopadopolus,” on ABC Fake News," Trump's post began.

"Can anyone believe anything that Sloppy Chris says?" Trump's post reads. "Do you remember the way he lied about the dangerous and deadly closure of the George Washington Bridge in order to stay out of prison, at the same time sacrificing people who worked for him, including a young mother, who spent years trying to fight off the vicious charges against her."

times up, critics are getting louder, and the American people are pissed.

Corporate media alongside with the GQP are deceiving the public re elections and everything else. Beware, and vote like your livelihood depends on it.

Because it does.

Same goes for "Jerkoff John" Bolton. I hope every single one of those secrets sees the light of day, immediately.

Has the Velveeta Vulgarian looked in a mirror lately?

Look up “sloppy” in the dictionary and you will see a picture of Trump.

I must give credit to Shower Cap and Shower Cap’s blog (used to be posted on DU by The Ferrett).

He has a bunch:

Mango Mussolini
Off-Brand Orban
President Cankles P. Rapist
Shart of the Deal
President Cognitive Test Passer
Offal in the Oval

Just to start with.

It is bad enough that Trump insults his critics and opponents, but he isn't really very good at it. A 4th grader could do a much better job.

However, Christie should create his own. Christie slimmed down. Christie with Melania. Christie getting Nobel prizes etc etc.

Everyone should just AI the hell out of Trump! Bully him with memes! Bring him down with memes and trolls. That's how Trump got here in the first place!

He just wants a different face of the GOP but in 2020, while he wasn't in favor of Mr Tangerine he did say that the GOP must support him in the general election. And lots of not great things while in office in NJ. Yes he did act respectfully with President Obama, but lots of other things about Christie were off. I personally had to join with other guardians and sue him personally on behalf of my institutionalized sister to stop his Gubernatorial Administration's rule breaking corrupt attempt to sell off one of the landmark facilities caring for the developmentally disabled down in Vineland, NJ. We won as the move was lawless but current laws and rules coming out of this administration and congress might make it harder to fight corrupt government maneuvers.
