Today, I penned a bit of a tribute to the Chris Christie campaign ... the Little Engine that Could Not
An ode to Chris Christie:
Today, you decided to drop out of the race,
Gave up on the campaign to save some face,
You really could never gain much traction
there wasn't a large enough Christie faction.

To be honest, 2012 really should have been your year
Instead you yielded to Mitt for reasons not clear
Then there was your hug with Obama
Oh boy, did that start some drama.
Christie comparing Ramaswamy to Obama ... Ramaswamy fired back and asked if he wanted a hug. I snort-laughed. #GOPDebate

Vivek Ramaswamy just called Chris Christie out for giving Barack Obama a Hug after Christie compared Vivek to Obama. pic.twitter.com/xgfMQqgEBW
Don't forget the time you closed the beaches,
Resulting in many constituent screeches.
Ya mean like this,

Let's not forget to mention 'BridgeGate'
Boy, that one brought you much hate.
You mean I can recycle all the Christie memes that I collected? Let's start with Bridgegate! #Christie #ChrisChristie #FortLee #NJ #NY pic.twitter.com/gOU6T7Jqsf

In 2016 you kneecapped Marco Rubio in a debate
but at the same time, you sealed your own fate
Everyone remembers Chris Christie’s body-blow against Marco Rubio in the debate before the 2016 New Hampshire GOP primary. Few remember that Rubio still won almost 9,000 more votes than Christie did in that contest.https://t.co/D06TV4jTuo pic.twitter.com/DOOfV6PS98

You helped Trump get a few more electoral votes
and a debate story for which you could gloat.
You were probably hoping for a job with President Trump
all you got was COVID, and you looked like a chump
Will Chris Christie ever grow up?

Chris Christie's support for Trump on the ballot reminds me of times he stood like an obedient schoolboy behind him as he eyed jobs in the former president's administration.#TrumpDisqualified #FreshResists pic.twitter.com/oG3tAitVZC
You appeared on political TV every week
Always ensuring your suit and hair were on fleek
Even that did little to win you much praise
There was never to be a Christie 2024 craze.
"There isn't a path for me to win the nomination, which is why I'm suspending my campaign tonight for President of the United States."

It's over now and we wish you fond farewell,
We'll leave fat jokes to X, at that it excels
Go enjoy time with your family and friends,
It was never to be and this is 'The End'.
