UChristie
Ukulinganiswa kwemvume yeRhuluneli yaseNew Jersey uChris Christie ngamaxesha onke kusezantsi kwilizwe lakhe. NgoLwesine, i-Rutgers Eagleton poll yenze ukuba i-rhuluneli ivume ukulinganiswa kwipesenti ezingama-26 kuphela phakathi kwabahlali baseNew Jersey.
Nangona kunjalo, njengoko uChristie eqhubeka nokwenza inkqubela phambili kumongameli waseRiphabhlikhi uDonald Trump kwaye ekhusela ubugqwetha bosomashishini ekubulaweni kweenkomfa zeendaba abeziphethe e-NJ kwezi veki zimbalwa zidlulileyo, kungenzeka ukuba uTrump ubala uChristie njengesekela likamongameli. kulula kwaye kulula ukukholelwa.
Kodwa, ngokuvunywa kwakhe kwamanqanaba asezantsi kangaka, ngaba iRhuluneli uChristie yinto efanelekileyo? Okanye ngaba akayona inkwenkwezi engenza umonakalo kwi-Trump yokuqhuba umongameli? 
UChristie waba yimvakalelo yemidiya yoluntu emva kokuba evele emva kukaTrump ekucingelwa ukuba ujongeka njengomthinjwa.
NgokukaBen Dworkin weRider University Rebovitch Institute ye-NJ Yezopolitiko, uChristie usenokuba sisigqibo esomeleleyo sikaTrump ngaphandle kwala manani e-poll ashiyekileyo.
Ngokuqinisekileyo ndicinga ukuba ngumntu uTrump angafuna ukumthathela ingqalelo ngenxa yezizathu ezininzi, utshilo uDworkin ngoChristie. Okokuqala, andicingi ukuba uTrump ukhathalele iipolls. Okwesibini kuzo zonke izinto, uya kuzalisa izithuba ezithile kumava aseburhulumenteni kwitikiti lika-Mongameli likaTrump nto leyo anokuyifuna xa ethatha umgqatswa wongameli.
U-pollster waseYunivesithi yaseMonmouth uPatrick Murray naye ukholelwa ukuba uChristie uyayifanela ibhilikhwe yokhetho lukamongameli lukaTrump.
Ukwamkelwa kakubi kukaChristie yingxaki kuphela eNew Jersey kwaye kukho amanye amazwe angama-49, utshilo uMurray. Abaxhasi bakaTrump ngoku bazithembile kuTrump ukuba enze nantoni na ayifunayo. Akakhethi kakubi. Akayena mdlali okhethiweyo. Umfo yirhuluneli yekota ezimbini. Wayeqhuba iphulo lobongameli. Akenzanga kakuhle kakuhle kodwa akazange aziphoxe ekwenzeni oko. Une-vetting kwaye ngumntu uTrump ngokucacileyo uthanda ukuthanda ukuhlala.
Kodwa kuthekani ngohlaselo olwenziwa ngokuchasene noChristie ngabachasi bakhe ngelixa wayeqhuba iphulo lakhe lobumongameli ngo-2016? Ngelo xesha, uChristie akazange akwazi ukoyisa i-salvos ziintshaba zakhe eveza ukungalunganga kwakhe kwaye waye wazuza amandla okwenyani njengomgqatswa wobongameli. Wayeka emva kwesiseko saseNew Hampshire ngoFebruwari emva kokubamba iintlanganiso zeholo yedolophu ezingenakubalwa kunye neminyhadala kwiGranite State ngepini yaseNew Hampshire. Ngaphandle kwemizamo enzulu kwi-NH, iphulo likaChristie lafela apho, limema umbuzo wokuba ingaba igama lakhe lingabuya libuye libuye libuyele ngaphi na uTrump njenge-VP.
Ngokuka-Dworkin, ngaphandle kokuphulukana noChristie kugqatso lobumongameli, inyani yokuba sele ebalekile kwi-media kwi-media ngelixa kwinqanaba likazwelonke inokuba yinto elungileyo ngenxa yokunqongophala kwezinto ezothusayo ezivenkileni ukuba ebeza kuphinda anyanzelwe kwelizwe lonke.
Ukhetha umntu ongakhange aye kumajelo eendaba kuzwelonke malunga nengxelo yophando kwaye ungaphela nomntu onemimangaliso, utshilo uDworkin. Kodwa andicingi ukuba unayo le ngxaki kwiRhuluneli uChristie.
Kwi-Dworkin, ekuphela komcimbi onokuthi ujikeleze uChristie njenge-VP khetha kukuba ityala laseBridgegate kulindeleke ukuba liqale ekwindla. Ngelixa uChristie engekho enkundleni, uDworkin uthe ngenxa yokuba ejongene novavanyo olunzima lweendaba ezingqonge iBridgegate, uTrump usenokungathandi ukuphambukiswa kwengqwalaselo ebangelwe liqabane lakhe.
Ngokwesiqhelo, xa umgqatswa ethatha iqabane elibalekayo, uzama ukubetha umahluko phakathi kwezi zimbini ngokwejografi, umbono, njl. Kodwa uChristie noTrump bavela kumazwe angabamelwane aseNew Jersey naseNew York. Bobabini bayazingca ngokunyaniseka, izitayile zobukrwada. Ngokuka-Murray, imeko ka-Trump yokuwexuka kusenokwenzeka ukuba kuthetha ukuba imiba eseleyo ayizukuba yinto ephambili kuye.
UTrump akalandeli naluphi na uhlobo lwemithetho, utshilo uMurray. Akalandeli ubhalansi bengingqi okanye ibhalansi yeengcinga okanye enye into. Mhlawumbi angathanda umntu ofana naye kakhulu.
Ngelixa uChristie noTrump banokuba baninzi ngokwesitayile, bobabini bayahluka kwindawo enye ebalulekileyo: inqanaba leqela. Ngelixa uTrump ebonwa njengomphandle weRiphabhlikhi, uChristie wayekhe wangusihlalo woMbutho weRiphabliki yaseRiphabhlikhi. Uqokelele imali kwiRiphabhlikhi kwilizwe liphela. Ngelixa iTrump isenokuba kukuchasana nokusekwa, uChristie umile ngokuqinileyo kwi-GOP. Ukhetho lukaChristie lunokunceda ekuqinisekiseni abo baseRiphabhlikhi kwinkampu ye-Trump.
Nangona kunjalo, ngokukaDworkin, kunokubakho enye into ebambe uChristie ekutsibaleni kwiQela likaTrump: UChristie.
Andiqondi ukuba uChristie angayifuna, utshilo uDworkin ngoChristie njengomgqatswa we-VP. Uninzi kakhulu kwezopolitiko. Andiqondi ukuba ufuna ukubanoxanduva lwento ngaphandle kokubetha kwentliziyo. Akukho nto kwimvelaphi yakhe ebonisa ukuba lo mntu ufuna ukuba ngumntu wenombolo yesibini.
Ke, ngelixa kusenokubonakala ngathi amanani awadibanisi uChris Christie ukuba abe ngumtyunjwa weRiphabhlikhi kwisekela likamongameli, kubonakala ngathi amanani abangela kuphela xa ujonge i-Garden State. Ngokuka-Murray, ukuba uChristie wongezwa kwitikiti likaTrump, eyona nto inokwenzeka inokuba iyakwenzakalisa uTrump kwilizwe elinye ngoNovemba: New Jersey. Umgqatswa kamongameli waseRiphabhlikhi akaphumelelanga kunyulo jikelele lwaseNew Jersey ukusukela ngo-1988.
UTrump akazukuwina eNew Jersey, emva koko, kodwa ebengazukuyiphumelela, utshilo uMurray malunga nokuza kwenzeka kuTrump ukuba ubeka uChristie kwivoti.
Okwangoku, uChristie uzama ngamandla ukulungisa umfanekiso wakhe kwilizwe lakhe. Ubambe iinkomfa ezintathu zokushicilela ngeveki kwezi veki zimbalwa zidlulileyo. Ubhengeze ngokuzingca ukuba ubuyile. Ngale mvakwemini, uChristie uzakuvela kunye nowayesakuba yiRhuluneli yaseNew Jersey uJim McGreevey, umntwana oza kubuyela emva emva kwexesha elihlazileyo loburhulumente. Ubeke uninzi lwengqwalaselo yakhe yakutshanje kumcimbi ekuvunyelwene ngokulula ngawo omabini amacala endlela: ukunqanda i-opiate kunye ne-heroin.
Kodwa ngaba kuya kwanela?
Ngomntu wesibini ophakamileyo kwiRiphabhlikhi yaseTexas uSenator uTed Cruz sele ebhengeze owayesakuba yi-CEO ye-HP uCarly Fiorina njenge-VP yakhe yokukhetha, kunokwenzeka ukuba uTrump enze ukhetho. Lixesha kuphela eliza kuxela ukuba ukhetha iRhuluneli uChristie ukuba ayigcwalise loo ndawo.
