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.

Hewitt assured us Romney would win.

And McCain would win.

And I’ll go way back to the 1998 Calfornia Governor election.

It was the very first time I ever heard Hewitt on the radio.

He guaranteed Dan Lungren would win in a landslide over Gray Davis.

From AP:

“WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump on Thursday reached the number of delegates needed to clinch the Republican nomination for president, completing an unlikely rise that has upended the political landscape and sets the stage for a bitter fall campaign.

Trump was put over the top in the Associated Press delegate count by a small number of the party’s unbound delegates who told the AP they would support him at the convention. Among them is Oklahoma GOP chairwoman Pam Pollard.”

So Jim Rob knows its verified and won’t pull the thread.

Well the nice thing now is the tables are turned, since rather than it being a question of Trump seeking their endorsement, it becomes a question of whether their endorsement of Trump is done in a way that will eventually earn Trump’s endorsement of them - or whether he’ll just leave them hanging and let all his supporters do as they will, which could mean primary defeats for some of them.

He’ll have more than 200 to spare by the time the June 7th primaries are done.
