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 partys unbound delegates who said they would support him at the convention. Trump will most likely add more delegates to his total before...

Trump garners unbound delegates!
Ta-ta-ta-raaaaaa!
This Donald is a character, but he’s also a juggernaut now.
Looks like a whole meteor shower
Now... Let’s get him elected. I can’t stand thinking about another four years of DemoCrap rule.
Amazing.
From an afterthought less than a year ago, to nominee and in the driver’s seat.
a roller coaster ride that has been fun to participate in.
Now lets win this in November!
Unbound delegates have flipped to Trump!!!!
Unbound delegates declared for Trump.
Dang it!
And I thought my vote would actually mean something this year.
But I am ecstatic that he has reached the magic number!!!
(New Jersey)
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.
How can that be, before CA primary?
Your vote is very important.
Insurance against any covert flippers.
wonderful YUGE news!!!
It was his destiny.
The thrill of victory, the agony of being #nevertrump
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.
Yes, what you said.
He’ll have more than 200 to spare by the time the June 7th primaries are done.
Ted Cruz can now take his Cuban ass back to Canada. And his nut job dad and Glen Beck.
I feel.....(crickets)....for #nevertrumpers
Nothing on Drudge yet.
