TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA: A clip of former New Jersey governor Chris Christie seemingly presumed to be complaining to fourth GOP debate moderator Megyn Kelly after Vivek Ramaswamy asked the former to "walk off the stage" went viral online. 

While MEAWW cannot confirm if the discussion between Kelly and Christie concerned the latter's complaint against Ramaswamy, several social media users were convinced after X (formerly Twitter) user @/Noah_Griffith_ shared the clip on the platform. 

"Chris Christie appears to go and complain to Megyn Kelly after intense yelling match with Vivek over Nikki Haley," the caption on the video read. 

In the video, Christie could be seen in front of the debate moderators' desk and engaged in a conversation with Kelly during what is believed to be the commercial break after Christie and Ramaswamy's heated exchange.



 

What did Vivek Ramaswamy tell Chris Christie? 

Nearly half an hour after the fourth Republican debate began at the University of Alabama, Christie called out Ramaswamy for attacking Nikki Haley's intelligence by questioning her knowledge about the war in Ukraine.

In the process, Christie called Ramaswamy "the most obnoxious blowhard in America" and asked him to "shut up for a little while."

Shortly after, Ramaswamy hit back at Christie saying, "Chris, your version of foreign policy experience was closing a bridge from New Jersey to New York," in reference to the time when Christie's administration in New Jersey shut down a busy bridge to New York as political retribution against a small-town mayor who had not endorsed his re-election bid. 

"So do everybody a favor, just walk yourself off that stage, enjoy a nice meal and get the hell out of this race," Ramaswamy proceeded to say as part of his scathing exchange, which prompted moderators to eventually call for a commercial break. 

Meanwhile, the video of Christie speaking to Kelly in what netizens believe is the former federal prosecutor complaining about Ramaswamy, made the rounds online and went viral immediately.

Internet in splits over video of Chris Christie speaking to Megyn Kelly during GOP debate

Social media users were left in splits after the video of Christie speaking to Kelly went viral online, with many taking to X to share their hilarious reactions to the video. 

"Holy cr*p… Chris Christie is now throwing a FIT to Megyn Kelly after Vivek told him to go enjoy a nice meal," one user wrote. "Chris Christie is big mad," another added.

While one user joked, "Just looking to get his parking validated, so he can go have that dinner," another one asked, "Has there been a debate yet where Chris Christie hasn’t whined to the moderators?" one asked. 

"Wahhhh....but I'll be a strong leader! I have to cry to Megyn!" a user said mockingly. 

One said, "Chris 'Karen' Christie is asking to speak to the manager…"

While another added, "This is a sore looser and cry baby. Do we need a cry baby like this running our country?"
