Christie on Claim Obama Is a Muslim at Trump Rally: ‘I Wouldn’t Have Permitted That’

CHRISTIE ON OBAMA ‘MUSLIM’ QUESTION: ‘I WOULDN’T HAVE PERMITTED THAT’ (Breitbart)

In an appearance on Friday’s “Today” on NBC, Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ), a candidate for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, reacted to how his opponent GOP front-runner Donald Trump handled a question about “Muslims” and the “Muslim president,” Barack Obama.

According to Christie, Trump should have handled it different if he wants to be taken seriously as a candidate.

“Listen, Donald Trump’s got to decide, as we’ve seen, I’ve said this all along,” Christie said. “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.”
