Former Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer announced Saturday that she is endorsing Donald Trump for president. The endorsement comes on the heels of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's backing of the Republican frontrunner, and just days ahead of Super Tuesday on March 1.
"As a Washington outsider, Mr. Trump gets it," Brewer said, going on to cite her appreciation for Trump's tough stance on immigration.
Brewer is perhaps best remembered for her controversial decision to make it a misdemeanor crime for an immigrant to be in Arizona without proper registration documents.
