Donald Trump Is Becoming Less Popular

Donald Trump "trumpled" through and Hillary Clinton cruised to commanding wins in seven states each in Super Tuesday's nomination contests across 12 states, but their rivals vowed to stay on in the U.S. presidential race.

While Trump - who has also won delegate contests in New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada - seemed to be on the verge of declaring victory, many Republicans are not rushing to endorse him, particularly his remaining opponents. In the Republican race, Trump won seven states; Cruz took Texas, Alaska, and Oklahoma; Rubio took Minnesota. But it deserves mentioning that if you take a look at the percentages within each state accounting for Trump's 315 total delegates, his wins hardly account for the upset the media is making it out to be. "Every one of those states so far has been won by either Donald Trump or myself". Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson signaled that he was quitting the race by saying he didn't see "a political path forward" for him to win the nomination.

"After tonight, we have seen that our campaign is the only campaign that has beaten, that can beat, and that will beat Donald Trump", Cruz said after winning Texas and Oklahoma but losing several other states, according to Vox.

New Jersey Governor Christie Has Urged Trump Not to Leave Republican Party
To Montclair State University political science professor Brigid Harrison, Christie's far-off stare seemed to reflect sadness. Marco Rubio , R-Florida, assuring Christie that the New Jersey governor had a bright career ahead of him in politics.

The delegate math shows the importance of the March 15 primaries in Florida and OH, in which the statewide victor gets all the delegates. His campaign reached out to House Speaker Paul Ryan's office to arrange a conversation between the two men, and urged Republican leaders to view his candidacy as a chance to expand the party.

Being on track for a 2 percentage point majority of delegates doesn't give Trump much room for error.

After Sanders took four states on Tuesday night, he said any talk of Clinton locking up the nomination is premature. Sanders has 418 delegates so far in the race, CNN reported.

"One perspective on that is that it's sort of inoculates a candidate against negativity that could be thrown at them in the general election". Even front-runners who wind up winning are usually below the 50 percent mark at this stage in their delegate count. "I think it's awfully hard to say that's not the person we want to lead the party, right?" "So I think we're going to be more inclusive, more unified and a much bigger party and I think we're going to win in November".
