Chris Christie was a one-time adviser for President Donald Trump's transition, but he has since transitioned to a critic, including rebuking the president's election challenge as an ABC News paid contributor.
"Well, listen, the legal theory put forward by his legal team and by the president is an absurdity," Christie told ABC News' "This Week" with Martha Raddatz. "And the reason why the Supreme Court didn't take it is because it's an absurd idea to think that any state or any number of states, no matter how good they are, can challenge another state's right to run the election as they see fit."
Christie made no mention of the unlawful nature of the election changes imposed by Democrat leaders – in lieu of constitutional legislative reforms – in key battleground states that handed Joe Biden the electoral college votes.
Christie also has adopted the mainstream media manta of "no evidence," while continuing to ignore the unlawful changes to election procedures.
"The reason the Supreme Court is not taking this is not because of a lack of courage," Christie said. "It's for the same reason that every court has thrown this out. It's a lack of evidence and a lack of any type of legal theory that makes any sense."
President Trump's calling out of faithless Republican leaders also does not sit well with Christie.
"What's gotten even worse, though, Martha, I think, is the attacks by the president on good, hardworking, decent Republican governors," Christie told Raddatz. "And you have seen his attitude toward these folks change.
"And let's think about why, back in September, he said about Doug Ducey, Doug is tough, Doug is strong, Doug is a good governor, the Arizona governor. He said about Brian Kemp back in the summer that Brian is a capable man, he knows what he's doing, and he's done a very good job as governor.
"Now, after the election is over, and he lost Arizona and Georgia, he says they're RINOs that are working harder against him. He's calling them corrupt, and also telling people things that aren't true."
