Two-Time Failed Presidential Candidate Chris Christie To Teach Class On Running For Office

Former New Jersey governor and two-time unsuccessful presidential candidate Chris Christie is set to teach a college class on running for office this fall.

The weekly seminar taught by Christie is titled "How to Run a Political Campaign" and is open to undergraduates as well as graduate students at Yale, the Associated Press reported.

According to the course description, the class will focus on key campaign aspects such as communication, fundraising, "and the most important question of all: If I do win, what do I want to accomplish and what kind of leader do I want to be?"

Christie, 61, served as governor of New Jersey from 2010 to 2018 and was the U.S. attorney for New Jersey from 2002 to 2008.

Once viewed as a rising star in the Republican Party, Christie launched his first of two unsuccessful White House bids in 2016. After suspending his campaign following the New Hampshire primary, Christie became the first presidential candidate to endorse then-candidate Donald Trump.

He went on to serve as the head of Trump's presidential transition team.
