At the presser, Christie refused questions about Trump and controversial comments he’s made:
Christie won't entertain any "off-topic questions" "Because I don't want to," he says.

Christie isn't refusing off topic questions because he doesn't want to answer them, but because Trump doesn't want him answering them.
