Former Republican Governor of New Jersey Chris Christie is expected to announce his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential race “in the coming days,” New York Post reported.
Host of “New Hampshire Today” Chris Ryan broke the news on Thursday, citing multiple sources with direct knowledge.
“Multiple sources with direct knowledge are telling me that Chris Christie will be announcing a run for President in the coming days,” said Ryan. “The campaign will be focused on New Hampshire and will have the financial backing of Mets owner Steve Cohen, among others.”
“Hedge fund founder Anthony Scaramucci, who briefly served in the Trump administration, said Wednesday that he plans to back Christie in the GOP primary and also expects Cohen and other Wall Street execs to bankroll the campaign,” according to New York Post.
