Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has said that Jared Kushner had him fired from President Donald Trump’s 2016 transition team as a form of retribution because Christie had prosecuted Charles Kushner a decade earlier.
Appearing on the podcast The Fifth Column Thursday, Christie recounted how Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law, held animosity toward him because Christie secured a guilty plea from Charles Kushner, Jared’s father, in 2005 while serving as New Jersey’s attorney general.
