It appears that Trump is on track to achieve around 60 per cent of the vote in all five primary states tonight. He will almost certainly be well over 50% in all of them. With two other "contenders" in the race, that is quite an achievement.
But these wins were UNDERSTATED.
Remember a couple months ago when many were saying that Trump only did well in OPEN primaries, when Independents and Democrats were allowed to vote?
Well all five primaries tonight were CLOSED to Republicans only! Democrats were not allowed to vote in any of them. Rhode Island did allow Independents to pull a Republican ballot but any registered Democrat was not allowed. The other four states, you had to be a registered Republican.
That includes New York from last week by the way, where Trump had 60 per cent of that vote as well.
The significance of this is that in November, we will see millions of Independents and disaffected Democrats crossing over to vote for Donald Trump.
The notion that Trump "can't win" a general election against Shrillary Clinton has been shattered with Trump's very strong victories in six Republican only primaries over the past two weeks.
The race now moves to Indiana next week which will truly be the last stand of Cruz and Kasich. If Trump wins there, he'll be over 1,000 delegates and will be in glide path to nomination on the first ballot.
Trump’s vile, harsh rhetoric fueled him to victory! < /S >

16K on the stream and it hasn’t even started yet!
does anybody else notice that in all those closed states that he won, that Donald Trump loses to each of the dem candidates except for Bernie in Deleware, where he beats bernie and gets trounced by Hillary.
LOLOL!!
Bullsh*t! The VOTERS of Colorado had no say in the outcome and are pissed! The VOTERS of today's primary states, also prove otherwise!
Ted Cruz: "I am the king of voterless states!"
In a word, yes. The Pennsylvania numbers are brutal.

And Cruz? What do you notice? He lost Evangelicals again to Trump tonight. Sorry, the American people have rejected Ted Cruz. Your choice now is Trump or Hillary. Choose wisely.
It is true that most Democrats say they'd never vote for a Republican in a thousand years. But they will find it easy to vote for Trump because the Republican establishment hates him. They will not feel like they are being traitors by voting for Trump, they will be able to say they poked a finger in the eye of the Republican Party, and they will help put Trump in office so that he can help make American great again.
No. EmasculaTED.
60% easy.
It’s over.
It’s very clear who the MAJORITY of republicans want as their nominee.
He is definitely the Sid Vicious right-winger roaming in the R party-gonna be lots of fun....
Really happy to see Trump’s margins.....but! sad to see that Dem turnout outpaced GOP by up to 35-50%

Great primary for Trump.....but bad trend for general election.....let’s hope Bernie’s peeps will cross over
He has 30,000 less votes in Pa than Sanders and Sanders is getting crushed in Pa by Clinton. Cruz and Kasich need to get out now and get behind Trump or that bitch is gonna win in a landslide.
Does anybody else notice that lefties are TERRIFIED of Trump?
I heard a cute quote....Trump’s attack on the rigged process is a self-licking ice cream cone....the more you see it, the more you see that it is rigged
one of the things I LOVE about Donald Trump is that he does not drink , smoke , or use drugs . Never has ( if you believe him and I do )
DRUG TEST HILLARY CLINTON ! drug & alcohol test ALL POTUS candidates .
Why not ? They control ‘ the football ‘ ....
