COLBERT: "But now, there is some doubt whether the party will ever be enthusiastic about Trump. But for all those fears that are out there, all of them were laid to rest last night by former rival Chris Christie's joyous and energetic introduction of Trump at the victory rally."
CHRISTIE [video]: "Good evening. Tonight, Donald Trump is the clear winner on Super Tuesday. Tonight is the beginning of Donald Trump bringing the Republican Party together for a big victory this November."
COLBERT: "Chris Christie kind of sounds like the best man at a wedding he never believed in. Now it's too late to stop. 'Jennifer and Mark-- what a couple, who did, actually, just get married. It happened. We all saw it. It's real. Some of you know that Jennifer and I have a bit of history, but that's what it is ... history. Right, Jen? We're just friends now. Point is, I agreed to be the best man because I am happy for you, and the groom volunteered to pay off my campaign debts. Cheers!'"
