Sorry for taking this thread in a different direction. Not sure were else this goes except a new thread?
In any case, it is interesting that Chris Christie was the prosecuting attorney that sent Jared Kushner's father, Charles, to prison. (Jared is Ivanka Trump's husband for those who don't know all the players in Trump's admin.)
I never thought Christie had a shot at being the vice-president, but now it seems like he had NO shot.

Interesting article in Vanity Fair about all the players:

"The Kushners were a prominent Democratic real-estate family in New Jersey. Their relationship to politics was mostly as members of the donor class. A person close to Jared told me that growing up in New Jersey taught him the utterly transactional nature of politics. His ability to move with ease from one political ideology to another, depending on what seems useful at the moment, comes naturally."
