    Dunno if it will be specifically Christie, but I went and registered as a republican just so I can vote for the least insane one in the primaries. Obv won’t be voting republican in the election itself, just doing what I can.

      As someone whos frequently wondered what prevents someone from sabotaging their opposing party with these tactics, I applaud you for actually doing it, although I’m also slightly scared about how this gets abused in the future

        The way I see it, they’ve demonstrated they’re gonna do everything in their power. The gloves are off. Me not doing it now won’t stop them from doing it in the future.
