“Who would’ve believed that when we started this journey on June 16th last year, we, and I say “we”, because we are a team, would have received nearly 14 million votes, the most in the history of the Republican party and that the Republican party would get 60 percent more votes than it received eight years ago, who would’ve believed this, who would’ve believed this”, Trump said.

Ted Cruz, with his wife Heidi, announced the suspension of his campaign in May.

“I think he needs to lay out some clear policy views, ” Kansas Governor Sam Brownback told the AP news agency.
Pence also lobbed criticism at their Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.
