34. Our Former governor is going to prison for far less.

Jan 2015

I'm in Virginia and former Gov. Bob McDonnell is going to jail for federal corruption charges that appear to me to be far less than what I have seen Christie do. Our former deserves jail time, and I have actually said here that I believe two years is fine. 10 years was a bit much when I look at what Christie seems to be involved in. I am glad you are keeping track of this. I hope you consider sending this vent to a State publication. The more people know….

The man is either totally unaware, criminally corrupt or a complete socio-pathological narcissist.

I am going with criminally corrupt.
