Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie was booed while walking on stage at the Florida Republican Party’s Freedom Summit event on Saturday.

“Now look, every one of those boos, everyone one of those cat calls, everyone one of those yells will not … solve one problem we face in this country,” Christie said. “Your anger against the truth is reprehensible.”

Between jeers, the former New Jersey governor tried to tell the crowd of Trump supporters that their energy is better spent elsewhere.

    Here’s the thing: he only does it sometimes, never when it matters, and only ever for self-serving reasons. So think twice before you shower Christie with too much praise; he doesn’t deserve it.

      I would argue that he’s doing it right now at a time when it really does matter (Trump is running for president) and there’s not much in it for him (he’s not going to be the GOP nominee).
