Biden and Trump Likely to Secure Nominations This Week

“President Joe Biden and his likely Republican challenger, Donald Trump, are on track to win enough delegates this week to become their parties’ presumptive nominees, ushering in a bruising eight-month campaign for the White House,” the AP reports.

“Elections in four states on Tuesday will likely give Biden and Trump the delegates they need to clinch the nominations. Their trajectories are hardly in doubt after dominant performances in last week’s Super Tuesday contests forced the last major primary challengers out of the race.”

Playbook: “But from Trump, don’t expect the typical pivot to the center that most politicians execute after they win a primary: He’s doubling down, and pushing further, on everything MAGA.”
