Chris Christie News Update: New Jersey Governor Endorses Donald Trump For President, Twitter Lashes Out [PHOTO]
The endorsements for Donald Trump keep coming in, with former candidate Chris Christie coming out and endorsing his one-time opponent in an effort to make sure Hillary Clinton does not become president if she wins the Democratic nomination.
Christie joined Trump on stage during a rally in Fort Worth, TX, saying he thought the businessman was a great choice to get the Republican nomination.
Naturally, the move caused quite a firestorm on social media, with many blasting Christie for his actions for a wide variety of reasons.
Some said it was clear he had ambitious goals to potentially be named as Trump's VP:
I've always been a big fan of Chris Christie, but this is a huge mistake for any consideration other than his own ambition.
