Donald Trump has reached the number of delegates needed to clinch the GOP presidential nomination, securing his status as the presumptive Republican nominee and avoiding a contested convention, according to a delegate count released Thursday by the Associated Press.

The AP reports that Trump was has reached 1,238 delegates, put over the 1,237 needed to win the nomination by a small number of the party’s unbound delegates who said they would support him at the convention. Trump will most likely add more delegates to his total before...

Great news. Now we need to get him elected by doing all we can. We cannot afford anymore moral decay much less the lies, money, and power grabs the Clintons are into.

So am I in the right place?

Welcome!

There have been bloody wars here for the past few months, mostly between Cruz people and Trump people.

I was one of the former.

Jim Robinson - head honcho around these parts - didn't cotton to people bad mouthing Trump and his supporters so the Viking Kitty made many zot visits and many long time Freepers are no more.

I have accepted defeat, put on my big boy pants, and am now supporting Trump. We have to stop the Hildebeast.

Check my Freep postings, but I said back in July or August, at the latest, that Trump would be the nominee and that it wouldn’t be close.

I was wrong about the timing. I think Cruz’s victory in IA threw things off and extended the process by two months, but still, you can’t foresee everything.

Trump will win the general. It won’t be close in the Electoral College. He will win the popular vote.

Thanks for the PING, Albion!

I saw Trump's 1,237 victory event in North Dakota on YouTube.  And there was no champagne.  He celebrated by having a presser with lots of tough questions!

Imagine this guy.  He's got so much confidence that he's willing to answer what must have been 40 tough questions -- over 30 minutes worth -- at a victory event.&nsbp; He thrives in this.&nsbp; He doesn't make mistakes.

We have never seen a politician like this before -- and probably never again!  Truly amazing victory over the last 10 months -- and he spent a fraction of the money his opponent did.

Congratulations, Mr. Trump!

Awesome! I just read Art of the Deal again — it has been great seeing his methods all play out over these months. We've still got a ways to go, but today, YAY!!!

WOW! Donald did it!.... His way. It might not be orthodox and it might sound strange, but he did it and has proven that others are still at the gate with no clue that the race has been won. "NOTHING you can do, cause we're stuck like glue to our Guy~"

We look forward to seeing the changes ahead to return to our wonderful country, our AMERICA! God Bless America.

He has certainly blessed us with Donald J.TRiUMPh

Absolutely! My wife and I will be getting our Trump absentee ballots in the collection box this weekend.

We live in California and are looking for a huge Trump vote count!

Four ballots for Trump went out yesterday and today out of out household here in California. I just talked to two neighbors and they are voting Trump.

I know that another one was Karl Rove (as documented here).

Remember the old expression, "eating crow"?   There's a lot of that going on today!

I had Trump reaching 1,400 delegates but then I thought that was too optimistic on at least 3 states. Now I’m wondering if it’s not all that far-fetched.

“I had Trump reaching 1,400 delegates but then I thought that was too optimistic on at least 3 states. Now I’m wondering if it’s not all that far-fetched.”

Rubio was thinking about releasing his delegates. If so that would certainly do it.
