Days after returning from Israel, Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie praised President Joe Biden and blasted his fellow GOP contenders for failing to travel to the region following the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas.
“I went because I think it’s an urgent problem,” Christie said, “and I also think if you’re running for president, you have to show that moral clarity to the rest of the world.’’ He accused front-runner Donald Trump and the rest of the Republican field of “a fundamental lack of intellectual curiosity.’’
The former New Jersey governor’s comments came during a foreign policy address Wednesday at the Hudson Institute, a Washington-based conservative think tank.
