New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie announced on Friday that he is endorsing Donald Trump for president.
“I am proud to be here to endorse Donald Trump for president of the United States,” Christie said in a joint press conference with Trump by his side.
“I will lend my support between now and November in every way that I can for Donald, to help make his campaign an even better campaign than it’s already been and then to help him do whatever he needs to do to help make the country everything that we want it to be for our children and grandchildren.”
Christie dropped out of the presidential race on February 10, after a sixth-place finish in the New Hampshire Republican primary. He told reporters he finalized his decision to endorse the real estate magnate Thursday morning. Among other reasons for backing Trump, Christie said he’d have the best chance to win the general election. “The one person Hillary Clinton does not want to see on that stage come next September is Donald Trump,” he said.
“He’s been my friend for many years,” Trump said of Christie. “He’s been a spectacular governor.”
