Barbour, who is also a member of the Rules Committee, admitted that though he is undecided, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is “incoherent”.
“I’m millions of votes ahead of lyin’ Ted Cruz”, he boomed, before taking aim at “crooked Hillary”. And pretending you’re going to win a last-minute landslide in majority-minority California isn’t going to get it. Democrats winning back the Senate and Sanders becoming chair of the Budget Committee might be a start, though. “It’s a different persona”, top Trump aide Paul Manafort said during the meeting, a recording of which was obtained by NBC News.
Bernie Sanders: Sanders has not returned Clinton’s toned down rhetoric.
Miller says Kasich’s experience as a governor is a point in his favor, but doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll get her vote.
Japanese firms said in a Reuters poll released on Wednesday that a Trump presidency would harm security partnerships. Trump could win all of the state’s 95 delegates if his vote total is above 50 percent statewide and in each of the state’s congressional districts.
It also helped that Trump dispatched the latest additions to his campaign team, both Republican veterans, to assure the party elite Thursday night – in a private, happy-hour briefing that included oysters, shrimp dipped in remoulade and an open bar – that he doesn’t really view the GOP as the nemesis he portrays on the stump. He appeared especially troubled by the results in Colorado, where Cruz swept all of the delegates there at the state’s Republican Party convention.
Widespread concerns about Trump’s shortcomings remained among some Republican activists who attended the meeting.
The nephew of former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour said the Trump campaign understands it is a “first-deal ballot” for the real estate mogul.
Trump, who held a rally in Indianapolis on Wednesday, blasted announcements in February by Carrier Corp. and United Technologies Electronic Controls Inc.to move production from in to Mexico with the loss of hundreds of jobs. “So I am supposed to wait a half an hour because there are thousands of people outside trying to get in”.
“You can go in there and vote for Trump and vote for three delegates that are three votes against Trump”, said Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Pa., a state co-chairman of Trump’s campaign. I’ve never introduced myself.
Some of his supporters, the #BernieOrBust caucus, say they’ll sit out such an election or write in Sanders’ name on the ballot. She could lose them all and still win the nomination – if she does well enough to win some delegates.
The speech will come the day after a round of primary contests in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, in which polls show him likely to do well.

RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said on Friday that the party was prepared for numerous scenarios, including a contested convention in July if no Republican has earned the 1,237 delegates needed to secure the nomination.
