Thanks be to the Lord!!!!!!!
Congratulations Donald John Trump!!!!!!!!
Fun thought:
Trump isn’t done yet! Let’s encourage the remaining voters to really put him over the top!!!! Really STICK IT to the pro-Hillary Never Trumpers!
Stick it to the MSM!
Bring it home with a hammer!
And I was very glad to see that dog break free of his leash. Though I can't figure out how he did it.
Hey!
Bush got one delegate. Let’s nominate him!
So wait,,

BWAAAAHAHAHAHA!
Which team is divided again?
I distinctly remember Yeb saying over and over and over...

Congratulations to Trump.
There you go again...
LOL

Jeb is still weeping over his lost love. Someone send him a lace hankey, quick. He’ll really cry over this.
