At home, Christie charged that the investigation into her private email serverproved Clinton – with her “selfish, bad judgment” – “cared more about protecting her own secrets than she did about protecting America’s secrets”.

Defeated anti-Trump delegates, however, are unlikely to forgive Christie for his part in that story.
