“Donald Trump may be the only person on earth that Hillary Clinton can beat”, he said. “And that’s why I’m doing so well”, Trump said, stressing his success in exit polling among women in the past two weeks’ primaries.

Donald Trump is unveiling a page from his playbook against the democratic frontrunner, designed of course to get people talking, “Frankly if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5% of the vote”.
Shortly before he was projected to sweep Tuesday’s contests, Trump called on his opponents Senator Ted Cruz and Governor John Kasich to drop out of the presidential race.
Even though Mr Trump and Mr Sanders, a US Senator from Vermont, emphasise some common themes such as criticism of Wall Street and global trade agreements, there is only limited crossover appeal between the two candidates, according to Reuters/Ipsos data. “It’s the only thing she’s got going”.
Clicking on the card brings readers to the section on Clinton’s campaign website that covers her stance on women’s issues. Several cash-rich campaign groups have announced that they would intensify their anti-Trump campaign ahead of the IN primaries on May 3, which has now become the last barrier that stands between Mr. Trump and the nomination. Despite notching up more delegates and dominating the media agenda, Trump’s ultimate claim on the nomination remains far from certain. In January, the businessman took a shot at his rival during a televised interview with CBS’s Face the Nation. “And I think one of the merits is I am a woman!” “That’s all she’s got, and it is pandering”.
“She’s pandering to the public and she’s pandering to women”, he added.
The hashtag #womancard began trending on Twitter as journalists and other Twitter users poked fun at Trump’s statement.
“I haven’t quite recovered – it’s early in the morning – from her shouting that message”, Trump said early Wednesday on MSNBC, after sweeping all the five primary states that voted in Tuesday’s polls.

After Tuesday’s contests, Clinton is all but sure to be the Democratic nominee, with 2,151 of 2,383 delegates needed to clinch the nomination. Pennsylvania’s 54 unbound delegates will become clearer later.
