MEXICO CITY — After criticizing President Obama for his handling of the country’s immigration crisis but declining to provide his own opinion on how to fix the problem, Gov. Chris Christie had a simple message for reporters yesterday: Stop asking.

The governor announced midway through a trip to Mexico — billed as a three-day trade mission — that he did not plan to offer opinions on repairing U.S. immigration policies unless he chooses to seek the Republican nomination president in 2016.

“Until that time, that’s not my job and not my role,” Christie said yesterday.

As the Republican governor tartly put it: “I understand everybody wants to start a campaign that I even haven’t decided I want to be in right now. I’m just not going to do it. I won’t have anything to say on immigration unless, and until, I become a candidate for the president of the United States.”

2. He needs to get his ass back to Trenton

And take care of the issues we have with a rapid rise in unemployment due to those casinos shutting down in Atlantic City.

4. The press should be asking him why our state of NJ

Is in a mess compared to other states.Hes stealing pension money from the Law enforcement and teachers and not a word from the mainstream media . unemployment is a mess the states bond rating has been downgraded it's fucked up here

6. I agree bigd

We are one big hot mess financially. How the leadership of the Republican Party could possibly think of him as good for the economy is beyond me.

7. If he were President (god help us) the economy would be close to a depression.

3. What a weasely ass idiot

He's been one of Obama's most outspoken critics. Yet now he doesn't want to talk about it. Oh, the timing.

5. The republicans think all this being a smart ass

Is cute let that be our current President getting smart with the media they would be saying he's an angry black man
