Chris Christie, former New Jersey Governor, suggested that the only way to defeat Donald Trump in the 2024 Republican presidential nomination is to have a candidate who can challenge him on the debate stage like Christie did to Marco Rubio in 2016. Christie recalled the moment fondly, noting that it had "stopped the momentum" of Rubio's campaign.
