Ryan to Christie: ‘Do you need a hug now?’

Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) took to Twitter on Sunday to rib Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) shortly after the Green Bay Packers downed the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC playoffs.

“@GovChristie, do you need a hug now?” Ryan, wearing a Green Bay hat, tweeted from the stands.

Christie traveled to Lambeau Field on Sunday to cheer on his Dallas Cowboys.

Cameras caught Christie, a potential 2016 GOP presidential candidate, embracing Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and his son last Sunday in a luxury box after the Cowboys secured a win over the Detroit Lions to advance to the divisional round of the playoffs.

Christie’s brother, Todd, defended the governor from criticism for attending that game.

“To all of those non Cowboy fans who have their panties in a ringer because the Governor of NJ is a Cowboys fan—GET A LIFE,” Todd Christie wrote on Facebook.
