He obviously approved it because when a chief executive is in on something he can control then it is his plan.

I don't know whose idea it was originally, but obviously it was Christie's plan since he was in on it. The OP phrasing is meant to convey tat Christie knew what was going on, and was an active part of an overall plan.

That Christie's comments were phase B of a multi-front plan.
