Republican presidential primary candidate Chris Christie took aim at two of his staunchest rivals on either side of the aisle with a scathing comment posted on social media platform X.

What Happened: “Both the [Donald] Trump and [Joe] Biden families are past their sell-by dates in this country,” said Christie on Friday.

“I’m tired of the what about-ism,” he said, adding “the conduct in both of these families is troubling.”

The former New Jersey governor and federal prosecutor called for people to “join the 75% of Americans in moving on from them.”

Why It’s Important: Christie’s comments came as the families of the president and his predecessor face legal challenges. Trump is facing four criminal indictments in both the federal and state courts in connection with his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riots, in subverting the presidential election in Georgia and in the mishandling of classified documents.

Legal predicaments aside, there has been a widespread thinking that Joe Biden, who is 80 years old, and Trump, who is three years younger than him, are too old to hold public office.

Despite the legal challenges, Trump is still leading the Republican presidential primary race, commanding a 55.5% support among GOP voters, according to FiveThirtyEight, a polling data analytics firm. Christie, who is also a contender, has the support of just 3.1% of the voters.
