Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are looking past their struggling primary-season rivals and directly at each other, previewing the caustic one-on-one race that seems inevitable if they sew up the Republican and Democratic presidential nominations.

“I don’t tell people how to vote”, Kasich said.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Instead, she’s leaning toward Trump.
A standing room-only audience of 2100 packed into the historic Indiana Theater to hear Donald Trump, who told them Indiana’s an important state in his quest to secure the GOP Presidential nomination.
With the IN primary less than two days away, Republican vice presidential candidate Carly Fiorina made a dinner time stop IN Greencastle on Sunday evening.
Head-to-head numbers show that Trump wins matchups against both Clinton and Sanders in IN – but Sanders gets closer.
If all that happens, Trump will only need to win a relatively small number of Congressional districts in California to put him over the line – and if he wins big in the Golden State, he’ll clinch easily.
The poll showed the depth of the challenge facing Mr Cruz, a conservative United States senator from Texas who is trying to prevent Mr Trump from winning the 1,237 delegates needed to seal the nomination.
Cruz has no such cushion. Appearing on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, Cruz again insisted that “it is going to be a contested convention” – though he and his staff seem to have also acknowledged that if Trump wins IN, his nomination will be impossible to block. “We’re going to have other people that are unbelievable”, Trump said on “Fox News Sunday”, mentioning the popular former Indiana University men’s basketball coach who is campaigning for him. Trump also focused on Cruz’s now non-existent path to winning the GOP nomination on the first ballot of the convention and mocked Cruz for announcing a running mate, former GOP candidate and businesswoman Carly Fiorina, under those circumstances. A Gallup Poll April 1 found that 70 per cent of American women have an unfavorable view of Trump, but Kvarnstrom is not one of them. If he wins IN, most of the attention will shift to California. “I was crossing the border, but I got here”, said Trump, who has made his controversial remarks about building a wall along the Mexican border one of the planks of his campaign platform. “Don’t let me fall!”
Trump let on that he’s eager to move on to a likely general election race against Clinton. But when it comes to his personal vote, Pence said Cruz had it.

When the “Meet the Press” panel convened, Ron Fournier noted that Cruz refused to answer Todd’s question about whether or not he would support Trump nine times throughout the entire interview. “I recognize that many in the media would love to see me surrender to Donald Trump because that means that Hillary wins”.
