Trump Threatens to Investigate Christie Over ‘Bridgegate’

President Trump on Monday did not rule out the possibility of launching a criminal probe into his ally-turned-critic, Chris Christie, for his connection to the 2013 “Bridgegate” scandal.

Speaking to reporters, Trump continued his attacks on the former New Jersey governor, who Trump said he “always felt” was guilty for his alleged role in the political retribution plot.

“Look, Chris is a slob. Everybody knows it,” Trump said, when asked whether he plans on investigating Christie, as he threatened Sunday in a post on Truth Social.

“I know Chris better than anybody in the room,” Trump continued, addressing the reporters. “I always felt he was guilty, but what he did is he took the George Washington bridge, which is very serious. He closed down the George Washington Bridge.”

“Obviously he knew about it, but he blamed the young lady that worked for him and another person, and they got into a lot of trouble,” Trump added.

Trump did not rule out a possible probe, saying on Monday that the decision would be Attorney General Pam Bondi’s to make.

“So no, I don’t know. If they want to look at it, it’s not for me. If they want to look at it, they can. You can ask Pam, I think we have other things to do, but I always thought he got away with murder,” Trump said.
