New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie offered up the latest twist of the Republican presidential primary when he endorsed Donald Trump on Friday, saying the GOP frontrunner is "rewriting the playbook of American politics."
The backing from his vanquished primary opponent came the day after Trump found himself under fierce attack from Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz in the final debate before next week's critical Super Tuesday nominating contests.
"The single most important thing for the Republican Party is to nominate the person who gives us the best chance to beat Hillary Clinton," Christie said at a news conference in Fort Worth, Texas. "I can guarantee that the one person Hillary and Bill Clinton don't want to see on that stage come next September is Donald Trump."
"He is rewriting the playbook of American politics because he is providing strong leadership that is not dependent upon the status quo. The best person to beat Hillary Clinton in November is undoubtedly Donald Trump," Christie added.
Trump, who previously dismissed the importance of endorsements, said Christie is "the one endorsement that I felt very strongly about."

He called Trump ‘sir’ during the press conference.
I pray to G-d that Trump didn’t offer him the VP slot.

I don’t agree with all of Christie’s positions, but he did a great job today endorsing Trump. Christie exposed Rubio for the weak little junior senator that he is. It was beautiful

Old news already!!! Boosem buddies already, like when the Governor and the POTUS took that stroll arm-in-arm after the storm in NJ. This is getting progressively more and more disgusting!!!

that scene from John Adams was a total fiction, from what I understand. Although probably dramatic, all of these men were almost never able to congregate. Irascible old John Adams in the series was well done, from what I have read though. It is a beautiful painting.
