Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie claims “it’s undeniable” that former President Donald Trump infected him with COVID-19 last year while also lambasting Trump’s former chief of staff Mark Meadows during a PBS interview.

Speaking with PBS “Firing Line” host Margaret Hoover, Christie contended that Meadows should have told him last September that the president had tested positive for COVID-19. The former governor and GOP politician said that a section in Meadow’s new memoir, “The Chief’s Chief,” due to be released next week, admits that Trump was likely infected at least several days before the White House announced the President was being briefly hospitalized for the coronavirus.

According to a USA Today news story from October 2020, in the six days between testing positive and being admitted to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, the president “debated Joe Biden, introduced his nominee to the Supreme Court, attended two fundraisers, and exhorted an estimated 5,000 people at two campaign rallies.” He also spent several days closeted with Christie, preparing for the presidential debate.
