.ChrisChristie didn't hold back in slamming fellow Republican rivals on several issues including Donald Trump's second indictment at a CNN town hall hosted by AndersonCooper on Monday evening.

Last week, the Department of Justice unveiled a historic 37 criminal indictment against Trump for allegations he mishandled classified documents when leaving the White House. But Christie didn't hesitate to slam Republicans for attacking the agency for the indictment instead of Trump."We're in a situation where there are people in my own party who are blaming DOJ," Christie said in front of an audience of Republican voters from early nominating states.

At one point, Christie asked point blank:"When did we get to the point we're always playing with our adversaries for the weakness of our candidates?" When asked if he would get rid of FBI Director Christopher Wray, Christie suggested he wouldn't fire him. "He's angry and he's vengeful, and he said, 'I will be your retribution,'" Christie said."Well, I don't think I don't want him to be my retribution. I don't need him to do that. And I don't think anybody in America needs it either. He wants to be retribution for himself. I am convinced that if he goes back to the White House that the next four years will all be about him just settling scores.
