Trump Hopes To Land Decisive Blow In Indiana Showdown With Cruz
Presidential Elections,Donald Trump,Ted Cruz,Elections
New York billionaire Donald Trump hopes that Indiana‘s nominating contest on Tuesday will make him unstoppable in what originally had seemed to many a quixotic quest for the Republican presidential nomination.
The famously blunt-spoken real estate mogul holds a double-digit polling lead over U.S. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, who has been campaigning in the Midwestern state almost non-stop since mid-April. Cruz has trumpeted Indiana, one of the last big states left in the fight to get onto the November ballot, as his golden moment to force a brokered nomination at the party’s July convention. But it appears to be shaping up as his Waterloo.
