He doesn’t have a majority of votes cast, but he has the largest majority of votes cast for a candidate in the Republican primaries.

That is called a plurality - less than a majority, but more than any other candidate.

A candidate’s followers don’t know the difference between a majority and a plurality? I think I see a problem here...
