“​​We need to renounce the conspiracy theorists and the truth deniers. The ones who know better and the ones who are just plain nuts,” said Christie, speaking to an in-person audience at the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley, California. “We need to give our supporters facts that will help them put all those fantasies to rest.”…

“We need to quit wasting our time, our energy and our credibility on claims that won’t ever convince anyone of anything,” Christie said. “Pretending we won when we lost is a waste of time and energy and credibility.”

He took another apparent shot at Trump by urging those gathered to not tie the party to one individual.

“No man, no woman, no matter what office they’ve held or wealth they’ve acquired, are worthy of blind faith or obedience,” Christie said. “We deserve much better than to be misled by those trying to acquire or hold on to power.”
