With a number of Super Tuesday wins under his belt, Donald Trump took the stage in Florida late Tuesday evening to hail his victories.

Introducing him: Chris Christie. Poor Chris Christie.

Christie, who once dismissed Trump as running for "entertainer-in-chief," endorsed the Republican front-runner for president last Friday — a move one of his former supporters called "an astonishing display of political opportunism."

And on Tuesday, onlookers noted Christie looked a little conflicted as he stood on stage with "Mr. Trump."

"Tonight is the beginning of Donald Trump bringing the Republican Party together," he said.

Many online thought his body language said otherwise. As Trump spoke, Christie stood behind him, staring blankly into the distance.

"Chris Christie just gave what looked like a coerced confession," Congressman Justin Amash, a Republican, said on Twitter, adding that the event was "staged to look like a hostage situation."

Within minutes of the speech, #FreeChrisChristie began trending on Twitter. Enjoy:

Keep your head up, Gov. Christie. One way or another, the 2016 campaign will be over in November.
