SCOOP: Ron Gidwitz, an Illinois Republican stalwart who raised funds for Donald Trump and worked in his administration, is endorsing Chris Christie in 2024, saying the former New Jersey governor has executive chops and isn’t afraid to stand up to the former president.
“He knows how to work across party lines, which is terribly important as opposed to having a constant battle between Republicans and Democrats,” Gidwitz told Playbook in an interview about endorsing Christie. “And he’s the only candidate in the race today who seems to have the courage to call out Donald Trump on the campaign trail.”

Allow me to translate this article from democrat propaganda to English: Guy nobody has ever heard of decides to support candidate nobody wants to vote for. There, now you needn't waste a single minute of your precious time reading this trash.

Gidwitz is a stalwart! That's my fact for the morning. I never heard of this stalwart before, and doubt he'll be considered a stalwart for much longer. Have a doughnut, Gidwitz.

"Illinois Republican stalwart" just doesn't compute.
And the source? Politico?

This stalwart undoubtedly got his White House job because of a recommendation by Christie. Another GOPe snuck into the Trump admin by backstabbera

Another bit of silliness from Politico. How does this bunch of ninnies stay in business? Christie closed his NJ beach so the whale and his family could enjoy it all by themselves during the COVID scam. With those executive chops he might be able to land a position in Gretchen Whitmer's government.

Who is Ron Gidwitz? Another billionaire evidently, who doesn’t know what to do with his money. Never heard of him. Politico had to fill up the empty space in the news and this is the best some editor could come up with. No. 1 is correct.

"Gidwitz" is Polish for "doormat".
Christie is a RINO rhino. Air Force one would need an engine upgrade to haul his.....bulk around.

Thanks, #1. I was just about to ask what is a Gidwitz? It sounds a little like a new fangled kitchen gadget.

Anyone who backs Christie is proving that they are ANYTHING but a "GOP stalwart". They are proving that they are a Deep State RINO crook.

I have a better idea. Let's join both sides of the uni-party by running a Christi-Pritzker ticket. Talk about gravitas. It will be fun watching them bounce ideas off one another! e.g. Yoso phat, No yoso phat!

Wrong. We don't need to work along party lines - we need to defeat and frustrate the Democrat's efforts. Their idea of working across party lines is to periodically round up the usual suspects, like Pierre D., Lisa, etc., to use as cover for their machinations while they ride roughshod over anything that gets in their way. Christie is unacceptable.

Christie didn't fare too well the last time he debated Trump. Anyway, New Jersey is not exactly a well run state so he can't point to that as an example of his successes.

Oh great, so Christie's his man because he has executive chops and isn't afraid to stand up to Trump. Sounds great but the sad fact is, Christie is nothing more than a paid for hack for communist DEMOCRATS. Those are the guys he's in bed with. His job is to hurt Trump, not Biden who has destroyed our country not china or inflation, or crime or drugs pouring across our open borders. Christie is going nowhere. Got it.

If only Republicans would spend more time supporting the candidate who wants to help people, not just line the pockets of the wealthy donors or expand every government program, they might find the actual opponent is a registered Democrat.
Remember, the opposing party?

Just read the thread. It was heartening to find so many others who’ve never heard of this “stalwart”. You are too funny = and I feel better.
Photo shows a poor soul who looks like a Gidwitz...

A Gidwitz is that machine that Christie uses to pull salt water taffy on the Jersey boardwalk.

Well, this just makes me want to fill out the 10 mail-in ballots I got in 2019/2020 from the democrats just because I was Black and fill them out for Krispy Creme Christie. They'd probably still count for next year.
