I'm not a DT fan, but the reality is the Cruz/Kasich divide and conquer strategy will fail, as much of the "Not gonna try % of the guy sitting out" will go to Trump, not the challenger. Tonight IMO showed DT's ceiling is well above 50%. This is like any other year-some of it is folks on fence move to presumptive nominee.
So? All 5 states Trump won tonight will vote overwhelmingly for Clinton in 7 months. His victories tonight mean nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Why would it be Trump's job to boost turnout?

He has a good chance in New York against a Democrat.
Please tell us what eastern states Trump will carry in Nov? They have been solid blue states for decades and an idiot like Trump certainly wont change that. He doesn't have a prayer in NY against Hillary LOL! Its one of the most liberal states in the country. He will be lucky to sniff 25% of the vote there in a general against her. Keep dreaming

Most women you know?


Most minorities I know are for Trump and fairly vocal about it too.

Trump will lose worse than Cruz did tonight in a general. Why are you gloating about blue states filled with liberals who will NEVR vote for your boy Trump? He will get obliterated in the NE by Hillary. Get used to saying Madam President

Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia is not liberal, that's how clueless you sound...that's where Santorum and Pat Toomey won as conservatives...Cruz lost all the conservatives counties in Pennsylvania.....how pathetic Cruz is.
