"Chris Christie Admits 2016 Trump Endorsement Was a Mistake Amid Controversial Campaign"
During a heated interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, former New Jersey Governor and Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie expressed frustration, calling it the least substantive interview he's ever had. Hewitt pressed Christie to drop out of the GOP primary to help other candidates against Donald Trump, suggesting a boost for Nikki Haley. Christie, who has criticized Haley and regrets endorsing Trump in 2016, refused to endorse Trump again and dismissed the idea that his campaign is harming Haley's chances. The interview was marked by repeated clashes, with Christie maintaining his stance to stay in the race and Hewitt advocating for his withdrawal.
