Christie blasts Trump's advisers, calling president 'ill-served'TRENTON -- Gov. Chris Christie on Tuesday night defended President Donald Trump's controversial travel ban on citizens from seven Muslim-majority nations insisting its chaotic implementation was the result of the president's staffers bungling its roll out, and not the president's policy. "He was ill-served by whoever it was who came up with the way to roll this out," Christie, a longtime Trump friend and adviser, said during an interview on MSNBC's "The 11th Hour with Brian Williams." The governor would go on to say that Trump, a fellow Republican was "ill-served" by his staff a total of six times in the course of the next 12 minutes on-air, adding that the president should be "rightfully upset with the people who did this." Christie, who'd been passed over as Trump's running mate, had served as his transition planning chief, but was demoted shortly after the election. The governor had also pressed Trump to serve as his attorney general, but lost out to U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama.
