Appearing Tuesday at a foreign policy think tank that heard from Democrat Hillary Clinton earlier this month, Governor Christie touted his experience pursuing terrorist plots as a federal prosecutor and he again chastised President Obama, saying the president does not understand Americans’ concerns about Syrian refugees.

“We cannot allow ourselves at a time of great peril to put ourselves at greater risk,” said Christie, who has told Obama he does not want the state to receive any more refugees.

Christie also shared personal stories with the Council on Foreign Relations audience about the 9/11 attacks, including how he wondered what he would tell their children as he waited five hours to hear from his wife, who worked near the World Trade Center.

“I fear this administration and many parts of this country have forgotten” about the attacks,” Christie said. “I can’t forget because terrorism is not theoretical for me.” He criticized Obama and Congress for weakening the law that allowed the government to gather information about phone calls to identify possible terrorist plots, saying that the intelligence community was being demoralized.”

It just gets worse.
