Report: Christie tells his staff he is taking White House job

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is telling friends and staff he is taking a role with the Trump administration, according to a source close to the White House.

The GOP governor’s position has not been worked out, but he would not replace ­Reince Preibus as the president’s chief-of-staff, the source said.

“Trump told him to be patient,” the source said. “Christie will only take something where he is answerable to the president.”
