Donald Trump took a victory lap on stage, after big wins on Super Tuesday, but all eyes were drawn to the man behind Trump – speaking eloquently with his own eyes stood Governor Chris Christie. Okay Christie appears to have been screaming with his own eyes. It all depends upon how sensitive you are to subtle cues in facial expression.
The realization of what he has just signed on for appears to dawn on Christie, as his face betrays flashes of panic, fright, fear and quite possibly nausea. The internet quickly surmised that Christie may have been signalling with his eyes, and that he is in a hostage situation. Quick to act, #FreeChrisChristie soon appeared on Twitter. People are responding! It may well be that the New Jersey Governor is in need of help to extricate himself. If so, he will have to wait, the kind folks on the internet are busy creating tweets, gifs, witticisms and video humor, and it shows no signs of slowing. A few tweets follow
I’m sorry I have no attribution for this tweeted gem: “Christie looks like my dog when she finds out that our car ride is to the vet.”
