New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie broke his silence Tuesday regarding Donald Trump's degrading comments about women in a decade-old video that surfaced last week, saying he still supports the Republican presidential nominee despite the "indefensible" video.
The governor, an outspoken Trump supporter who had thus far been silent about the candidate's lewd remarks, addressed the controversy for the first time on the Boomer & Carton show on WFAN in New York.
Gov. Christie speaks for 1st time since Trump video, debate: "completely indefensible...that kind of talk, even in private, is unacceptable"
