Dem rep needles Christie over quiet car incident

Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel (N.Y.) on Monday needled Chris Christie after the Republican presidential candidate was reportedly asked to leave Amtrak’s quiet car. 

Rangel tweeted that unlike Christie, “I keep quiet in quiet car & blend my own smoothie w/ real fruit (tho it 2 may not go smoothly),” including a short video of the congressman attempting to make a smoothie.

“After breaking the cardinal rule of the quiet car, the Governor promptly left once he realized the serious nature of his mistake and enjoyed the rest of his time on the train from the cafe car,” a Christie spokesperson later told The Hill.
