On Sunday, Christie cited the conduct of Powell in particular for her unsubstantiated claim that the Republican governor of Georgia is part of a conspiracy to rig the election against Trump.

"Sidney Powell [is] accusing Gov. Brian Kemp of a crime on television, yet [is] unwilling to ... lay out the evidence she supposedly has," said Christie, a former U.S. attorney. "This is outrageous conduct by any lawyer."

Georgia is one of the states narrowly won by Biden; Trump is pursuing a recount unlikely to change the result.

Christie further praised Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., for clearly acknowledging Biden's victory after the Pennsylvania judge's ruling on Saturday night. In a statement, Toomey described Judge Matthew Brann as a "longtime conservative Republican whom I know to be a fair and unbiased jurist." Trump responded to the statement on Twitter, where he called Toomey "no friend of mine."

Christie said he hopes more Republicans step forward.

"As much as I'm a strong Republican, and I love my party, it is the country that has to come first," he said.
