Potential 2024 Republican presidential contender moves a step closer to launching a campaign
Fox News
Long-time allies of former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie launched a super PAC to back his likely campaign for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, to try to take down former President Trump.
Christie, who is considered one of the best communicators in the GOP, was once a strong ally of then-President Trump but has become one of the former president's most vocal GOP critics.
Christie, a former two-term Republican governor and 2016 presidential contender, has argued that he has got the debate chops to potentially take down Trump, who is six months into his third White House run and remains the clear front-runner in the early GOP nomination national polls.
Brian Jones, a veteran Republican strategist and consultant who is steering the new super PAC, emphasized that Christie's "willing to confront the hard truths that currently threaten the future of the Republican Party."
