A couple of nights ago at Madison Square Garden, former NJ governor Chris Christie had a bad time.
It looked from video like Bruce Springsteen, on a big swing around the crowded stadium, snubbed him. (see at bottom)
Everyone thought so, at least, and the word spread quickly. Must have been a political thing, right?
But you know Bruce would not do that, even to Trump. He’s too much of a gentleman. And, of course, they do share a love of New Jersey.
Christie showed up again last night, which surprised everyone. And now the man behind Bridgegate got his wish — a backstage visit and a photo, now posted to social media.
Christie is certainly a music fan. In 2015, he sat in front of me for the Adele concert at Radio City Music Hall. He was very nice, but that was a long time ago, before all this Trump debacle began. It was after the Bridge incident, but I didn’t snub him, either.

Unlike Chris Christie, no sane Republican would be caught dead at a Springsteen concert and getting snubbed in the process pic.twitter.com/lqeiOCxkUD
