Chris Christie might be having some regrets.
The New Jersey governor Chris Christie threw his support behind Donald Trump last week after dropping out of the presidential primary battle.
But there's a video of him standing behind Trump on stage earlier this week with a look in his eyes that's been described as "troubled," "miserable" and "wordlessly screaming."
Meanwhile, former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney came out with a sort of anti-endorsement of Trump, calling him a phony and fraud.
But do these endorsements truly that much in a campaign? Trump seems to be doing just fine without them.
