Chris Christie saw the handwriting on the wall for his future job prospects a long time ago - no chance to win the nomination and unelectable at home in New Jersey. So he hitched his wagon to the Trump train in somewhat of a gamble. And now he has gone all in, agreeing to head Trump's transition team. Of course, the announcement is a bit premature - Trump hasn't won the Presidency yet. Let's hope we don't get to see Christie in action.
(FYI, the above paragraph also qualifies for the New Yorker's "Block that Metaphor" snippets.)
