NJ Gov. Chris Christie on Sen. Frank Lautenberg: “All he knows how to do is blow hot air,”

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) isn't fond of Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg and he isn't afraid to say it.


The Hill reported:

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) is not particularly fond of Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), saying in a recent interview that he is full of “hot air.”

The new governor said he did not appreciate Lautenberg’s criticism of his decision to cancel an $8.7. billion rail tunnel project that has been planned for more than a decade.

“All he knows how to do is blow hot air,” Christie said in a profile published in New York Magazine. “So I don’t really care what Frank Lautenberg has to say about much of anything.”
