christie: i don't see it either. there has not been, until very recently, a lot of empathy for opioid addiction. it happened when the numbers of deaths climbed over 50,000 a year. it happened because there was such a huge volume of death it started to touch in places that had not been touched before. everybody knew somebody. mr. hari: there was a cnn headline. mo'kelly: it depends on where you live. mr. hari: no it was a cnn , headline that said the innocent face of addiction, a young, blonde white woman. she developed in opioid -- he developed an opioid -- she developed an opioid addiction. i wanted to say, they were all innocent faces of addiction. [applause] the people who had crack addictions -- one thing we have to talk about it let us talk about places that have ended opioid crises. switzerland had a massive opioid crisis in the 1990's. people might remember. horrific dystopian images, people injecting heroin in the neck in public parks. and in switzerland -- for the swiss people, this was incredibly shocking.

mo'kelly: final word to governor christie. gov. christie: destigmatization. they will continue to hide in the shadows otherwise. if you know when you come out of the shadows that you will be scorned, you will stay in the shadows and avoid society. mr. hari: do you support decriminalizing use? >> you just answered your own mo'kelly: we will have to cut it right there. i want to make sure these questions get answered. mr. hari: you want to destigmatize but -- gov. christie: i have dealt with plenty of bullies and -- you are the intellectual bully of this panel because you think you know everybody and everybody is your friend. this professor is my friend. i don't give a shit -- who your friends are. i don't write about this problem. i don't. i'm not a voyeur. i have to deal with these problems. [speaking simultaneously] gov. christie: that is very funny. [speaking simultaneously] gov. christie: apologize to a punk like you. mo'kelly: governor, governor. we will go to the questions. keep a degree of civility. we will try. we want questions, not speeches. >> i wan

christie. before mr. christie became governor, donald trump who was considered a close friend had been battling new jersey auditors trying to collect overdue taxes for his atlantic city casinos for years. the "new york times" reported that quote, after mr. christie took office, the state prove willing to settle in 2011 for just 5 million on the 30 million tax bill they had been pursuing him for. did you know about this incident? >> i did not. and i concluded my service as as an attorney at the end of tooin 2009, so that would have been around my service. >> so you knew nothing about this and didn't advise the governor not to take such an action as to settle for 5 million for 30 million. >> i had no involvement in that, no. >> you did learn about the incident after it occurred. >> i seem to recall reading about it in public reports, senator. >> so, since you had no responsibility for it, you took no action about it. let me go on. when you were serving as legal counsel to governor christie, he was allowed,

christie: yes, i did. presidential debates are about putting a spotlight on someone that is so bright that you cannot help but see who they are. people asked me all the time before the debates, most of my supporters would have dinners before the debate. i have been in new jersey, all right? the light is so bright there that i was not worried about standing up on that stage. i knew that i could take it and that whatever people saw, that's who i am. other people, less so. i had to get through marco rubio, so it was a calculated decision on my part. i was calling him the boy in the bubble. i said he has fake town halls, he has three prescreened questions where they call it a town hall. i do town halls where nobody knows the questions before hand. you cannot elect him president. this guy is obama, just from our side of the aisle. he is a first-term senator who is not ready to be president, so i was ready to make that argument and i remember being in the green room with my campaign staff right before the debate

christie was u.s. attorney and you were assistant attorney, he reportedly increased the use of cases of financial impropriety by letting companies except independent monitors. these monitors were appointed by the u.s. attorney, mr. christie, and also received millions of dollars of fees paid by the company. the bush administration was so uncomfortable with about seven agreements that mr. christie assigned because he had appointed political allies and supporters and monitors and some of these cases and one infamous deal of mr. christie appointing john ashcroft over a firm. millions ofceive dollars in fees for 18 months of work as a monitor. it was controversial. did you know about this incident? mr. matey: had no involvement in those matters. i was aware of them. you were an assistant u.s. attorney in all of things u.s.swirling around to attorney christie, you had no knowledge of these kinds of ethical concerns were surrounding mr. christie? mr. matey: certainly, two responses. the individuals who works

he invited christie here. they have at times had a touchy relationship as our reporting has long indicated, but it is also many years since that time, and christie was a surrogate at times during the campaign, certainly had been the first prominent u.s. official to endorse donald trump. he of course ran for president himself and was out after the new hampshire primary. so it is a delicate relationship. it is something that when we go back and look at the issue of christie as a finalist in the vp running, the running mate stakes that we all watch so closely, the relationship with kushner was considered a roadblock at that time. mike pence was ultimately selected. christie was the runner-up if you will. expressed disappointment at that time, but that seems like a long time ago now. what will happen next, we don't know. >> kelly o'donnell for us at 1600 pennsylvania. thank you. >>> after president trump slammed sesla slammed several republicans lost re-election, a member of his own party took him to task. i'll ta

i'm going to make a suggestion of chris christie.here are a number of reasons why christie would be good and we might have him out of order if we have a graphic. number one, he has an 18 your personal relationship with the president. they get along, they know each other. he has already walked through the media fire. he knows what it's like to be in the bright, white spotlight of the new york media, and frankly the national media. i think temperamentally he and trump are similar. they get along as people. they have kind of a similar style. that's not a detriment in this job whatsoever. he was known as a type of nails prosecutor, very well respected by career prosecutors at doj. i think bridge-gates -- i do not think any of that matters with the number of republicans we have in the senate, christie would be confirmed. if the president said this is the guy we want, i think chris christie would get confirmed. i don't think it's much of a problem. i do not think that beach closure is going to knock him out of it, okay? that's my view. joe

you had no knowledge these ethical concerns were surrounding mister christy as his attorney? . >> certainly. the individuals who worked with the united states attorneys handled their matters independently through a hierarchy of advisories so it's just simply a matter i was involved in the investigations we are discussing but my time serving as a federal prosecutor i was not aware of or had any issues regarding ethics i'm certainly not aware of any that i was involved in i considered representing the united states department of justice on behalf of the cases to be one of the greatest privileges of my life. >> senator booker. >> when i was mayor of new york one - - that we had 4000 employees and 3500 outstanding workmen compensation claims you can understand my reaction so we put a strategy to mitigate risk to drive the rates down everyone put together practices for that crisis because you can imagine when i took over for the mayor there a lot of and issues that i had to address. but the safety issues with the hospital were so extreme, this is the director of operations describ

but christie is one of the people he's considered. someone i was talking to say even giuliani's name has come up. certainly not really a sense that whitaker will be kept on full time but we've been told is that trump may not rush into this decision. that he feels like, as we know, so regretful of how things turned out with sessions that he wants to spend a little more time figuring out who he wants, particularly because he seems very happy with his interim attorney general. >> matt mueller, you said yesterday that matt whitaker would need to or would likely be counselled to recuse himself from the russian probe. would chris christie have a similar set of circumstances that would let you to make a similar assessment? >> i think more black and white in chris christie's case. matt whitaker will be a little gray area based on public statements and the fact he has close association with sam clovis. rod rosenstein is one of those that can tell the ethics officials whether clovis is an important part of this investigation. rod rosenstein may

chris christie at the white house. what do you make of that?let's start with chris christie. we know he was here at the white house earlier today. two people familiar with this visit tell nbc news that he is under consideration for attorney general. no indication that christie is a front-runner. we don't know where he is in the attack. frankly, we are told that other candidates are being considered, as well. don't have a list of who they are, although we're trying to get more details on that. lindsey graham, the republican senator, an ally of the president's, he was here at the white house earlier today. but as a reminder, earlier this week, he swatted down questions whether he would be a candidate for ag. for his part, though, about chris christie, his visit today was, we're told, unrelated to this job vacancy. he was actually here for a meeting on prison reform, that was organized by jared kushner with a group of former u.s. attorneys. what's significant about that, what has been a really challenging relationship between those two men, it was

christie: i look at politics as a binary function. to me, people ask me all the time, you were the first major person to endorse donald trump, why did you do that? because i didn't want hillary clinton to be president of the united states. [applause] >> and so to me, i looked at it, i have been in the race and the -- and i knew that none of rest of the guys on stage, they were not going to beat donald trump. just because i figured out at the end of february, we all came to the same spot. when donald trump won south carolina by double digits, new -- after having won new hampshire to do if it was any one, other candidate in my lifetime the press would have said it is over, he is the nominee. because it was trump, people, no, this cannot possibly be. it is going to be marco, ted, john kasich. it was never going to be any of them. it was going to be him. my view was you can either do one of two things, stand on the sidelines and do nothing or if you are going to get in, get in for the candidate you prefer based on what your choices are go

chris christie? the president responds matthew whitaker is a very respected man, and very importantly, he is respected within the department of justice, just somebody that is very respected. i knew him only as he pertained, you know, he was with jeff sessions. and, you know, look, as far as i'm concerned, this is an investigation that should have never been brought. it should never have been had. it is something that should have never been brought. it is an illegal investigation, and you know, it's very interesting, because when you talk about not senate-confirmed,

chris chris christy houlahan will be elected. new york, staten island, dan donovan, republican incumbent, has been unseated by max rose. this is fascinating because it is not a clinton -- new york city, not a clinton district. there are parts of new york state and staten island in particular, that like donald trump very much. this was one of them in 2016. two years later, dan donovan is losing here. we also have a call, i am told, in pennsylvania -- yes, pennsylvania 7. this one not a shock, but here it is. susan wild defeating marty nothstein. charlie dent held this.
