The Mandarin Molester has no chance of getting elected, so Christie and his gaggle of crooks won’t be getting a presidential pardon. Too bad Chris. You did all that groveling, and made all those cheeseburger runs for nothing. I hope you put a few bucks aside for mouthwash. https://media.giphy.com/media/3ornjN6SrgZZP6m9s4/giphy.gif

Look for these two to cut a deal at Christie’s trial. They are two of the littlest fish you’ve ever seen.
