Christie to freeholder: 'I will f---ing destroy you'
Susanne Cervenka and Dustin Racioppi , Asbury Park Press 6:06 p.m. EDT October 5, 2016
NEWARK - New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie threatened to "fucking destroy" fellow Republican Monmouth County Freeholder John Curley after Curley called him a "fat fuck" in the aftermath of superstorm Sandy, according to testimony today from the Bridgegate trial.
The exchange between the governor and the freeholder came up during testimony from former Christie staffer Christopher Stark.
Stark said Curley called him with a "curt" message after Sandy because Curley believed Christie was taking credit for recovery efforts in the aftermath of the 2012 storm, when local elected officials like Curley were doing the work on the ground.
According to Stark's testimony, Curley said, referring to Christie, "Who does that fat fuck think he is?"
Stark, a former regional director in the governors Office of Intergovernmental Affairs, said Christie then called Curley to express his displeasure.

They're only violent to the non-white, non-Christian, LGBT, and non-Republicans. Other than that, they are a very peaceful and neighborly people

New Jersey governor next cycle? 'Was wondering how things stand there.
When Trump-Pence goes down in flames in November, isn't that the last train out of the station for Christie?
