2024 Watch: Chris Christie pushes post-Trump GOP vision in comeback

Don’t be surprised to witness more verbal fireworks between former President Donald Trump and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie with the publication this week of Christie’s new book, “Republican Rescue.”

The book’s subtitle, “Saving the party from truth deniers, conspiracy theorists, and the dangerous polices of Joe Biden,” is a direct shot at the former president, who on a daily basis continues to re-litigate his 2020 election loss to now-President Biden as he repeatedly flirts with another White House run in 2024. 

And it appears to be a major effort by Christie to spell out his vision for the GOP going forward, as the former two-term governor and 2016 Republican presidential candidate sets himself up for a potential second White House run in 2024.

CHRISTIE-TRUMP WAR OF WORDS OVER FUTURE OF GOP HEATS UP

“Christie reveals exactly how absurd grievances and self-inflicted wounds sabotaged Donald Trump’s many successes and allowed Democrats to capture the White House, the House, and Senate in two years—a first for the GOP since the days of Herbert Hoover,” the book’s publisher writes in a preview.

“In his frank and compelling voice, Christie dissects the last year of the Trump administration—which provoked nothing but conspiracy theories and infighting—and he lays out an honest and hopeful vision, explaining how Republicans can capture the future and save America from today’s damaging Democratic excesses,” the Simon and Schuster website reads.

Christie will be all over the media this week as his book releases, but his high profile comeback tour – as well as the attacks and counter attacks between the two GOP leaders who are both known for brash and assertive in-your-face politics — kicked off last weekend.

That’s when Christie, in a speech to an influential group of Republicans and in an interview with Fox News, urged his party to stop looking back to Trump’s 2020 election loss to Biden, “move on, and talk about issues that voters care about.”

“We can no longer talk about the past and the past elections,” the former governor, a supporter of Trump but vocal critic of the former president’s litigating of the 2020 election, said to applause as he addressed the annual leadership meeting of the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC), a major conference of party leaders, activists, mega-donors, and bundlers.

“No matter where you stand on that issue, it’s over,” Christie argued. “Every minute we spend talking about 2020, while we’re wasting time doing that, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are laying ruin to this country. We better focus on that and take our eyes off the rearview mirror and start looking through the…
