Chris Christie isn’t throwing all his weight behind Donald Trump’s campaign.

Christie distanced himself from Trump when asked whether he was “proud” of the campaign the mogul is running.

“Listen … the person who needs most to be concerned about the kind of campaign they’re running is the candidate because it’s the candidate’s campaign,” Christie told NBC.

“It’s not my campaign, it’s not Jeff Sessions’ campaign, it’s not Rudy Giuliani’s campaign. We’re surrogates. And I’m proud of everything I’ve said and that’s all I can control. The rest of it I can’t control,” the New Jersey governor added.

He also said he believed Trump when he said the charges of unwanted sexual advances are false — but didn’t mount a resounding defense.

“I can only take him at his word and I am,” Christie said.

After offering an early and key endorsement during the primary race, the former federal prosecutor was in the running to be Trump’s running mate.
