New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie used Adele’s “Hello” to mock Sen. Marco Rubio on Thursday over some of the Florida Republican’s past statements supporting Christie.

In May 2013 , Rubio used the quote, "Conservative leadership is hard to find these days. But the voters in New Jersey have seen it firsthand," in an email from the Reclaim America PAC. He added at the time, “As Governor, Chris Christie challenged New Jersey politics as usual. And his limited government and free enterprise reforms are helping turn around one of the bluest of blue states.”  

The senator’s official Twitter account has not responded.
