Christie denies he 'inspired' scandal: 'I don’t believe that I did' (will that hold up in court?)

Sawyer asked Christie if it “defies credulity” that his staffers and appointees shut down the bridge because of a personal annoyance.

“When things were first reported, I said this couldn’t possibly be true because who would do something like that? Sometimes people do inextricably stupid things,” Christie said. “And so that’s what makes it so hard then as the guy in charge because none of it made any sense to him. And to some extent, still does not.”
