Chris Christie Closed State Beaches Then Took His Family To A State Beach

A local New Jersey newspaper launched themselves to hero status when they flew a plane over a New Jersey beach where Chris Christie and his family were enjoying a beautiful day at the beach.

That would have been great if state beaches, particularly the Island Beach State Park spot he was at, weren't closed due to a government shutdown, caused by Christie. The shutdown was caused by disagreements over the budget of Trenton, New Jersey.

Not too many people were forgiving of Governor Christie, who has had some of the lowest approval ratings in New Jersey's history.
