Christie rips Trump for mishandling anti-Muslim remark

“Listen, Donald Trump’s got to decide, as we’ve seen, I’ve said this all along. He’s got to decide how serious a candidate he wants to be and how he handles different problems like this are going to determine that in the eyes of the American people,” Christie told NBC’s Matt Lauer on “Today.”

Christie said he would not “lecture” Trump about what he should do, but made it clear what he would have done in that situation.

“I’ll just tell you what I would do, and I wouldn’t have permitted that. If someone brought that up at a town hall meeting of mine, I would’ve said, ‘No, listen. Before we answer, let’s clear some things up for the rest of the audience. And I think you have an obligation as a leader to do that,” the governor added.
