Christie hits back at Rubio

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie hit back at GOP presidential rival Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in a video he posted on Twitter that’s set to the soundtrack of Adele’s “Hello.”

The video is a tongue-in-cheek attempt to point out to voters that Christie and Rubio used to have a positive relationship. It includes a 2013 quote from Rubio praising Christie while the song plays in the background.

“Conservative leadership is hard to find these days, but the voters in New Jersey have seen it firsthand,” the quote from Rubio reads. “The people of New Jersey were desperate for real leadership and a new direction … And that’s what they got in Governor Chris Christie.”

Rubio did indeed say this about Christie in May 2013, according to Politico.

In the tweet, Christie writes, “Oh @marcorubio, the way things used to be #tbt”

Rubio has not responded to Christie on Twitter.

Rubio’s super PAC hit Christie with political ads this week, blasting Christie over his record in New Jersey and tying him to President Barack Obama.
