Chris Christie on FedEx and Immigration

Today Chris Christie held a town hall event in New Hampshire where he said that, if elected president, he would track undocumented migrants like FedEx packages. “We need to have a system that tracks you from the moment you come in and then when your time is up,” Christie said. 

It’s a Hunger Games approach to immigration! “This is just your tracker, Katniss. The stiller you are, the more efficiently I can place it.” 

Interestingly, CNN notes that Christie isn’t the first politician to come up with the FedEx analogy. Earlier proponents include Virginia Rep. Barbara Comstock and Newt Gingrich.
