Following Chris Christie, Maine Gov. Paul LePage Endorses Donald Trump
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie announced his candidacy for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination in Livingston, New Jersey on June 30, 2015.
"This guy's got more coverage on this network by a multiple of five or six than any of the rest of us, and he says he is being treated unfairly?"
The endorsement comes a day after Sen.
A new poll shows that Long Islanders favor Donald Trump by far in the pack of Republican presidential candidates.

Back in December after Donald Trump suggested imposing a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States", New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie derided it as "ridiculous". Trump won over evangelicals from Cruz in SC, and even more resoundingly again in Nevada.
Asked about the hand-wringing in the Republican establishment about Trump, his campaign manger, Corey Lewandowski, said, "Look, we've got relationships with those guys and we talk to them all the time".
The 11 Republican nominating contests on Tuesday have a total of nearly 600 delegates at stake, and could set Trump up to clinch the presidential nomination. Before Christie left the race, he questioned Trump's temperament and experience, saying he wasn't suited for the presidency.

On immigration, the NY businessman has vowed to end birthright citizenship, build a wall on the Mexican border financed by Mexico and potentially deport millions of immigrants living here illegally. Christie has a personal relationship with Trump. He mocked Rubio, referred to violent Islamist militants as "these animals" and promised to defend Americans' constitutional right to bear arms. "We are going to fight for the soul of the Republican Party".
David Booth of Pompano Beach, a Republican committeeman and Trump supporter, said his candidate "is telling the truth". Christie hates Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz.

Rubio kept up the assault in a campaign appearance Friday, calling Trump a "con artist".
Cruz is widely disliked by fellow Republicans. Neither Kasich nor Carson are forecast to be competitive on Super Tuesday.
But they only dented Trump's momentum, according to opinion polls and online betting markets. This has resulted in Marco Rubio, in particular, launching attacks on the real estate tycoon and schoolyard bully that he himself could have conjured up. The problem is, he is a choker, and once a choker, always a chocker (sic)! He said "this was an endorsement that really meant a lot" and described Christie as an "outstanding man with an outstanding family".
The Daily News has skewered Trump repeatedly over the course of his campaign. "I guess because I figured Governor Christie would probably not participate in the campaign at this point", he said. "I think it's a mistake", said Dan Haggerty of Lawrenceville. Trump appeals to nearly every demographic group, including Evangelicals who have reasons to be offended by the twice-divorced, foul mouthed, gay-supporting, holder of what Cruz, with a wink and a smirk, derides as "New York values", leaving it to his audience to fill in the details.
Hubbard, now dean of the business school at Columbia University, told Reuters he anxious Trump's comments already hurt the country's image overseas and would hobble his ability to govern if elected.
Trading more insults, Trump and Rubio fight on for Republican nomination
Christie's move overshadowed them all. "I like Chris, I don't think the endorsement is a big surprise to many observers". Christie's team didn't give New Jersey Republicans advance notice of his plan to endorse Trump, sources said.
