The Funniest Tweets about Chris Christie’s Beach Day

It’s a tale as old as time itself: Chris Christie shut down a beach and then lounged on that beach with his family. Then the press caught him and he lied about it. Then he said that it wasn’t a lie. Then he said that if people want to use the beach, they should run for governor. Then he tweeted that most of New Jersey’s beaches are still open for the public’s enjoyment, posting a photo taken by the same photographer who snapped him sunning it up on the taxpayer’s dime. Then everyone on Twitter joked about it. Then we compiled those jokes here. Just another day in the big beautiful world!

For the record, I think Chris Christie size jokes are cruel and lazy, and he shouldn’t have made one by needing to occupy an entire beach.

Chris Christie’s defense for lounging on the beach while it was closed was telling people to run for governor so they could do it too pic.twitter.com/3IFmfUAfoW
