After a wasted month or two attempting to fabricate a reality that would become a political world in which Marco Rubio would surge in the polls to threaten frontrunner Donald Trump, our corrupted DC Media has now moved its Reality Fabricator Machine to Governor Chris Christie. Watching “Morning Joe” Tuesday morning you would believe Christie is neck-and-neck with Trump in New Hampshire.
Nope.
Well, with all the DC Media hoopla, Christie must be in third place.
Nope.
Okay, at least in 4th place.
Nope.
Fifth!
Nope.
Sixth?
Nope.
As I write this, as the media fabricates Chris Christie’s “second wind” and “dividends” paying off for the New Jersey Governor in New Hampshire, according the Real Clear Politics poll of polls, this same New Jersey Governor sits in 7th place in New Hampshire.
SEVENTH.
Christie is not only in 7th place, he is behind Jeb Bush and John Kasich with just 5% support. In the most recent NH poll, taken less than 2 weeks ago, Christie earned just 4% support.
Christie is -21 points behind NH frontrunner Donald Trump.
I’ve been watching Christie, and there is no doubt he is very good on the campaign trail, very good in media interviews, and tends to stand out in the debates. There is no question he is a superb politician and that those skills could result in some kind of break out.
But the DC Media isn’t reporting or saying that.
What the lying, corrupt DC Media is doing is pretending that Christie is already breaking out when there is absolutely no data to support that claim. At least in the case of Rubio there was a little movement up in the polls. Nothing to support the breathless coverage, but something.
We have 60 days to go until Iowa. A lot can still happen and probably will happen between now and that political eternity. But it is not happening now.
In order to craft the reality they so desperately want, the DC Media is once again lying to you.
