Ben Carson—a man Donald Trump once compared to a child molester—just endorsed Donald Trump, calling Trump’s accusations “political stuff.”

“We buried the hatchet,” Carson said. “I do recognize that it is part of the process. We move on.”

Carson also suggested there are “two Donald Trumps”: The one we have to deal with and one that’s more “cerebral.”

“I’m a big thinker,” Trump confirmed after the endorsement.

Trump also denied making a deal with Carson in exchange for the endorsement but did say, “Ben’s going to have a big part” in the campaign.
