New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) hasn't joined the presidential race, but he's already taking swipes at Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton. He criticized her first big campaign rally Sunday on ABC's This Week.
"Mrs. Clinton doesn't hear from anybody, she doesn’t talk to anybody, she doesn't take questions from anybody," Christie said. "How would she know what real Americans are concerned about?"
Christie also said it sounded like her speech was put together by "liberal political consultants." He's expected to decide whether he'll run for office in the next few weeks.
