Race For 2016: Christie Enters Race, Clinton Raises $45 Million
ResumeThis week in presidential campaign politics, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie promised to "tell it like it is" as he announced he's running for the Republican nomination. Democrat Hillary Clinton raised a record $45 million in the first three months of her campaign. And Republican Donald Trump stood by his claims that Mexicans crossing the border are rapists and criminals, even though NBC and Macy's are among the businesses that backed away from the celebrity candidate this week.
