The Terminator and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has endorsed John Kasich on Snapchat in the first celebrity endorsement on the app.

Schwarzenegger, who's ever-comfortable with the camera, took a selfie video and then panned over to Kasich, who offered an awkward “Thank you, Arnold. Love you, man.”
Kasich, who is currently governor of Ohio, has fared poorly in early primary voting and polls so far, and The Arnold's words likely won’t be enough to put him back in contention for the Republican nominee.
GOP frontrunner Donald Trump referred to Schwarzenegger as his friend following the announcement that the Austrian movie star would be replacing him on Celebrity Apprentice.
Congrats to my friend @Schwarzenegger who is doing next season’s Celebrity Apprentice. He'll be great & will raise lots of $ for charity.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2015
