“We really have to look at profiling. We have to look at it seriously. And other countries do it, and it’s not the worst thing to do. I hate the concept of profiling, but we have to use common sense. We’re not using common sense.”Chris Christie, who rushed to endorse him after ending his own campaign, said this as recently as last December in commenting about the San Bernadino shooting:
“Increased surveillance, creating relationships with mosques in the Muslim-American community across the country — we did that after 9/11 and prevented attacks in New Jersey and all across the country. What you need is a president who’s had the experience and the know how to do this and not someone who’s just going to talk off the top of their head.”Here's my prediction. Christie will find some way to distance himself from Trump's position, while not distancing himself from Trump himself. After all, they have some kind of deal. Chris Christie didn't give his endorsement for free -- and my guess is his price was to be appointed Attorney General in a Trump administration.

PS: That's enough about Trump for the week . . . I hope.
