Donald Trump swept through all five Northeastern and mid-Atlantic voting states on Tuesday, in a show of dominance unprecedented in his campaign for president.

The Manhattan billionaire and GOP frontrunner won every single county in play — 107 total among Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland, and Connecticut. As a result, he won each of the 34 congressional districts in play.

The East-Coast romp led to Trump pick up at least 110 delegates — more than 93% of the total in play.

MSNBC's Steve Kornacki projected that Trump would need to win more than 100 bound delegates across the five states and about 34 of the 54 "unbound" free-agent delegates available in Pennsylvania.

I agree LJ, he is just ‘off’ and he sincerely does lie, alot! I’m sick of his slimy ways and dear Lord, somebody get him off the stage!

And Carly, the assigned ankle biter?! This is going to be one of the biggest laughs of this entire campaign season. She will be exposed for the fraud she is and I for one, can’t wait!
