The numbers, for croooze to read & weep:

“...He won all but six districts in Connecticut and one in Rhode Island, which Kasich took.
....

Trump now has 949 pledged delegates, compared to 544 for Cruz and 153 for Kasich, according to The Associated Press delegate tracker. Trump has one unbound delegate and Cruz has 16.”

Yeah, okay, but Cruz will see this as Trump's Achilles Heel, right? Why else would Cruz be interviewing for his VP? -- or is Cruz smoking something?

I've supported Donald Trump from the day he announced he was running. I've had enough of lawyers turned professional politicians. "Make America Great Again" is a great slogan; it's what we need to do.

Why do you have to spit in JimRobs face by continuing to insult? Beat it troll.

We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
Samuel Adams


“If you are a NeverTrump type person, you are working against our purposes on FR, so please opus out now and log off and let us carry on with our mission in peace.
Continue insulting us with 24/7 anti-Trump diatribes and insults, your opus will be assumed.”

Here's another interesting graphic.

** Trump currently holds 50% of the delegates awarded to date and needs only 46% of the remaining outstanding delegates to win the nomination

Yep. King pointed out multiple times Trump is likely to get all inbounds from PA. When adding in the half that have committed to supporting Trump, Trump has several paths to the magic number last night.

“Which one of these states will he win in November?”

Hopefully Pennsylvania. But Trump will also force Hillary to spend resources in the others.

I have no illusions about Trump - this is a populist movement and not a wave of conservatism. But, that makes his voter appeal very unpredictable...all the consultants are going to have to throw out their rule books. No more concentrating only on the ‘swing states’. He puts a lot more states ‘in play’.
