WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has clinched the Republican Party nomination, surpassing the necessary delegate threshold. That makes Trump the undisputed Republican nominee as Democrats continue to wage a contested primary contest between former Vice President Joe Biden and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.“It shows the enthusiasm behind President Trump, it shows how unified Republicans are behind President Trump and how intense their support for him is,” said Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh, who noted Trump has set record vote tallies, even in largely uncontested contests.
Trump had 1,141 delegates going into Tuesday’s Florida and Illinois primaries and he needed 135 more to win. The wins in Florida and Illinois were big because their primaries awarded all delegates to the winner.
