Trump-Hillary win big, Jeb drops out

Donald Trump did more than win his second easy victory in consecutive presidential primaries in South Carolina on Saturday, reports the CNN.

 

He advanced his takeover of the Republican Party. He proved that he can dominate a race in the Deep South. He vanquished the dynasty that ruled the GOP establishment for decades as Jeb Bush dropped his White House bid.

 

And in the process, Trump left no doubt that he is the GOP's national front-runner and has the most credible path to capture the party's nomination.

 

In Nevada's Democratic caucuses, meanwhile, Hillary Clinton deployed an intricately built organizational machine to register a much needed and stabilizing victory over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, slowing her rival's surge following his stunning rout in the New Hampshire primary.

 

Trump now looks even more formidable as he enters the 13 Super Tuesday states— once he has navigated the Nevada GOP caucuses Tuesday— with contests looming in places like Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia and Texas where he polls consistently well.

 

A jubilant Rubio bounced back after his disastrous performance in New Hampshire to proclaim that the GOP race was now a three-man affair. His campaign expects to pick up disenfranchised Bush supporters and believes it will now start to emerge as the only genuine alternative to Trump.
