There are 22 North Dakotans that gave their pledge to Trump today giving him the majority of delegates needed to win the nomination.

That's 22 at large delegates, 18 of which Cruz claimed were loyal to him after he had attempted to stack the delegate slate just prior to the ND convention.

Ben Carson and Barry Bennett had vigorously campaigned for Trump in ND and had left there feeling confident of the outcome in ND.

Curly Haugland, ND national committeeman and rules interpreter did not join Trump on the stage. Neither did the state committee woman, Sandy Boehler.

You have to wonder if some of the delegates were stealth Trump supporters. They may have went along with Cruz's strong arming technique in order to make sure that they could become ND delegates. They obviously had understood how it all works with Cruz after watching the Colorado delegate selection process.

I remember 11 months ago, when Trump came down and announced that he was a candidate for POTUS...I turned to my daughter and said: “That’s who I’m supporting!” Not once have I looked back...yes it’s been hard, being knocked around, working on his campaign in Utah, but I never gave up hope or faith...I just kept plugging along, trying to convince people that what I knew in my heart was the right way to go with this Man...today, you have no idea how happy and at peace I am...

GO.TRUMP.GO!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!

every additional delegate is power to override the rinos.

control of who speaks and when.

what is and is not in the platform (the wall)

we have shock, now comes awe.

Trump is outlining policy initiatives for energy and international affairs. Hillary is too busy fighting the FBI investigation on one flank while facing guerilla warfare from Bernie’s Brigades on the other. Trump is about to launch his own attacks while the DNC is quietly planning to parachute Uncle Joe and Fakeahontas behind the lines. Hillary knows she’s fighting her own “Last Stand” surrounded by enemies all around her.

I want to see Trump smile ear to ear when he meets with the Obamas on inauguration day after the swearing in. Then again, will Obama decline to be part of it? The final protest? This is going to be priceless.

I’ve wondered that too. Oily Felito seems to miss the fact that some blades are double edged. Anyone using a dagger ought to know that as basic fact.

So he wants to end our dependence on foreign oil, but he also wants to allow the Keystone XL pipeline which will bring in foreign oil from Canada.
