It’s ridiculous to back Chris”, Trump said, noting that New Jersey is “the worst state in the union in terms of economics. Trump did not spare Christie in his attacks against the paper.

The publisher of The New Hampshire Union Leader says Donald Trump has been lying to voters about his efforts to win the paper’s coveted endorsement.
Joseph McQuaid, the publisher of the New Hampshire Union Leader, blasted Trump on Monday in a front-page editorial.
McQuaid called Trump “a crude blowhard with no clear political philosophy”, and said Trump reminds him of Biff.
McQuaid adds that Trump was foisted on voters by “the crowds, the media coverage, and the polls”.
Trump spent several minutes describing his interactions with McQuaid, saying that initially, “I thought he was an aggressive guy, he called me, he talked to me”. But his harshest criticisms were lodged at his Christie, whose “lapdog” in his view is McQuaid.
Trump said that when Christie warmly greeted President Barack Obama after Hurricane Sandy, that “could have cost Romney the election”.
Since that spat, McQuaid has been increasingly vocal about his opposition to the Trump candidacy, and he has referenced Christie’s ability to prevent his nomination as a key factor behind his paper’s decision to back the New Jersey governor. And he alleged that it was impossible that Christie did not know about his scandal over the George Washington Bridge that scared donors away from the once front-running establishment governor.
Trump detailed favors he said McQuaid has asked of him since before the first Republican debate in August. “It was unbelievable. He was like a little boy: ‘Oh, I’m with the president, ‘”.

Supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are handed signs from a volunteer before the start of a rally in Nashua, N.H. on December 28, 2015. They included him giving a speech at an event to help the family of ISIS captive and journalist James Foley and tweeting out to his Twitter followers that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie should be allowed on the main debate stage. During the hoopla around the commemoration of “Back to the Future Day” this year, the sequel’s writer Bob Gale confirmed in a Daily Beast interview that Trump was a direct inspiration for the portrayal of Tannen.
