Chris Christie’s (R) presidential campaign is pushing back on a Gawker report that said the New Jersey governor was asked to leave an Amtrak Quiet Car on his way to New York from Washington on Sunday morning because he was yelling.

Christie got on the train “yelling at his two Secret Service agents I think because of a seat mixup,” Alexander Mann, a passenger on the train, told Gawker.

The governor sat down and immediately started making phone calls, according to Mann. Christie appeared to be having a heated phone conversation, repeating “this is fricken’ ridiculous” and “seriously?! seriously?!”

After about 10 minutes, a train conductor reportedly asked the governor to stop yelling or move to another car.

“He got up and walked out again yelling at his Secret Service,” Mann told Gawker.

  1. Loud mouth cannot control himself.

  2. He doesn’t have secret service.

  3. Yep, no secret service protection yet. Some success in the polls, some crowds, some sufficient amount of notoriety has to exist before a POTUS candidate can be granted SS protection. Fred Flintstone hasn’t quite gotten there yet to say the least.

  4. The man is an embarrassment. We are watching his political swan song, so enjoy it.

  5. Better to keep your mouth shut……
