Shortly before the start of the US Republican presidential primaries, candidate Chris Christie threw in the towel. The harsh critic of former President Donald Trump said on Wednesday during a speech to supporters in the state of New Hampshire that he realized that he had no chance of winning his party’s nomination for the presidential election in November. That’s why he’s dropping out of the primary race.
The 61-year-old former governor of the state of New Jersey was the harshest critic of former President Trump in the Republican field. In surveys, however, it only averaged between three and four percent.
The Republican primaries begin next Monday in the state of Iowa and will last several months. The winner of the primaries, in which Trump is the clear favorite, will challenge incumbent Joe Biden of the Democratic Party in the presidential election on November 5th.
