Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie doesn't want to be Trump's chief of staff: Media

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has taken himself out of consideration to be President Donald Trump's next chief of staff, saying the timing is not right for himself or his family, according to a statement posted by multiple media outlets.

"It's an honour to have the President consider me as he looks to choose a new White House chief-of-staff," Christie said in the statement. "However, I've told the President that now is not the right time for me or my family to undertake this serious assignment."
