FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie endorses Donald Trump for president. Christie officially announced the endorsement in Fort Worth on Friday will travel with Trump to Oklahoma City for a rally.
"It is my great honor to receive the endorsement of the Governor," said Trump in a statement released by his campaign. "We have had a wonderful relationship for many years. He is a solid person that I have tremendous respect for. I am really proud to receive the support of the Governor and his family."
"Donald is a leader," said Christie in the statement. "He is a successful person that, like me, isn't afraid to tell it like it is. Our system is broken and it won't be fixed from the inside. I am proud to offer my endorsement of his candidacy for President."
