US, May 04, 2016 – Donald J Trump is now 100 percent sure that he remains the Presidential nominee of the Republican Party following his victory at the primaries held in Indiana on Tuesday night.
DONALD TRUMP IS GOP NOMINEE AS CRUZ QUITS RACE FOR WHITE HOUSE
He defeated his main rival, Ted Cruz in the primary, forcing him out of the race. Cruz packed up his campaign when his anticipated routing of Trump in Indiana failed to materialise.
“We gave it everything we’ve got, but the voters chose another path… With a heavy heart but with boundless optimism we are suspending our campaign”,” a disappointed Cruz told supporters in Indiana.
But Ohio Governor, John Kasich who trails Trump in the third place before exit of Cruz has vowed to remain in the Republican race. However, pundits are saying that he has no chance unless the unimaginable happens to Trump, who looks very fit and healthy.
“It is a beautiful thing to watch, and a beautiful thing to behold. We are going to make America great again”, Trump said in his victory speech adding that Cruz was a “tough, smart competitor”.
The Democratic Party frontrunner, Hilary Clinton however failed to consolidate on his victories, losing Indiana to Bernie Sanders.
Looking quits optimistic of his chances, he said, “Clinton campaign thinks this campaign is over. They’re wrong,” he said
