Donald Trump is sailing into battle against President Joe Biden powered by anger over the two policy issues that have driven his comeback campaign so far: immigration and the economy.

Trump came close to sweeping the board in the 16 “Super Tuesday” Republican primary races, putting him on the verge of clinching the party’s nomination and allowing him to train his full fire on Biden ahead of the November election.

    Oh please. Sycophancy fueled his romp. He is their god. He could welcome immigrants and say he’d make the economy worse and they’d still vote for him.

      I like how some media is all “Romps, Fuels, Swaggers, Unstoppable” with this douche but with Biden is all “furrowed brow, troubled”.

        Not one of Trump’s contenders ever had a chance and it’s stupid that the media is pretending that they did.

          I think there was the shred of hope he’d be found ineligible to run and anyone left in the race (Haley) would be the de facto candidate.

          If anything, I think the Supreme Court decision preventing states from removing him from the ballot was the bigger hit to her campaign than the primary results.

        There’s a single sort of exception. The one time he said something that some of them didn’t agree with was when he bragged about his vaccine program. A handful of people booed. And now he’s a full-on antivaxxer.
