I touched on it briefly Tuesday night, but probable GOP nominee Donald Trump’s victory speech dismissal of near-certain Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton bears further attention for illustrating a serious personal and political flaw the egomaniacal former reality star bears. “That’s all she’s got.it’s a weak card in her hands”, Trump said on “Fox and Friends” Tuesday morning.

“I can live with it, but [what] I don’t like doing is sending them in so – I mean, with such fanfare”, Trump said.
Ted Cruz was humiliated on Tuesday.
Conservative Indiana is more friendly territory for Cruz, which is why he and Kasich came to the agreement that Kasich would give up campaigning there and leave it to Cruz to peel delegates away from Trump.
“If Bernie believes that, his supporters can, too”, Takei said. “Bernie is the real thing”, said the estate agent. With Clinton’s four victories – she ceded only Rhode Island to Vermont Sen.
“Mr. Trump accused me of playing the, quote, ‘woman card, ‘” Clinton said at a rally in Philadelphia on Tuesday after winning four of the five contests in the Northeast.
“If you are a Democrat, an independent or a thoughtful Republican, you know that their approach is not going to build an America where we increase opportunity or decrease inequality”, Clinton said of the GOP candidates. At the state’s official Clinton watch-party, state Democratic Party chair and state Representative Joseph McNamara was pleased Clinton won delegate-rich Pennsylvania. Sanders, in an interview with The Associated Press, conceded that he has a “very narrow path and we’re going to have to win some big victories”.
Trump also had words for actress Lena Dunham, who said she would move to Vancouver if Trump is elected president. Their loose alliance marks a stunning shift in particular for Cruz, who has called on Kasich to drop out of the race and has confidently touted the strength of his convention strategy.
In the Republican race, Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich are desperately trying to force a convention fight. It’s not over-over. To borrow a metaphor from another classic fourth in a series, Rocky IV, Ivan Drago (the 1,237 delegates Trump needs to win) is still on his feet. But, as we learned recently from Trump’s abortive attempt to be more presidential, he doesn’t take kindly to being told what to do in this campaign.
The next primary is scheduled in IN next Tuesday where Cruz and Trump has entered into a strategic alliance to prevent Trump from getting 1,237 delegates. Kasich will back Cruz’s campaign there, but it’s unclear whether their partnership will bear fruit. He was on a path to winning the vote in every county in each state.
Trump also looked forward to the general election. But when Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential frontrunner, stepped up to the mic in Manhattan’s Trump Tower to celebrate of his epic sweep of Tuesday night’s GOP nominating contests in all five of the states in play, what we saw was a Trump more subdued in tone but as misogynist in substance as ever.
On Tuesday night, CT moved the country closer to a general election matchup of Donald Trump versus Hillary Clinton.
Clinton entered Tuesday with 1,944 delegates.
Those totals include both pledged delegates from primaries and caucuses and superdelegates, the party insiders who can back the candidate of their choice regardless of how their state votes.

Sanders hasn’t said if he has a strategy for changing the focus of his campaign, and he insists he’ll continue fighting through the last contest in June. “Heck I wouldn’t mind going across to California”.
