Chris Christie just said he didn’t support Sonia Sotomayor. Here’s the proof he did.

In the first Republican debate of 2016, Chris Christie said, “I didn’t support Sonia Sotomayor” for the US Supreme Court.

In 2009, Christie said:

After watching and listening to Judge Sotomayor’s performance at the confirmation hearings this week, I am confident that she is qualified for the position of Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court…. While Judge Sotomayor would not have been my choice, President Obama has used his opportunity to fill a seat on the Supreme Court by choosing a nominee who has more than proven her capability, competence and ability. I support her appointment to the Supreme Court and urge the Senate to keep politics out of the process and confirm her nomination.

Emphasis mine.

Whoops.
