Christie: I don't regret endorsing Trump in 2016. [View all]

It wasn’t that long ago that Christie was considered one of Trump’s allies. He endorsed Trump in 2016 after he himself dropped out of that presidential race before eventually turning on the former president as Trump challenged the results of the 2020 presidential election.

“I chose Donald Trump because I thought he was better than Hillary Clinton,” said Christie on his prior endorsement of Trump in 2016. “And … because I thought that I could make him a better candidate ... I was wrong. That’s it. It’s that simple. I was wrong.

“I don’t regret it because I don’t think Hillary Clinton would have been a whole lot better than Donald Trump. But today I have the guts to stand here and say what the truth is and nobody else on that stage is doing it.”
