If elected, Trump has vowed to root out the so-called “deep state” of civil servants, crack down on illegal immigration, enact protectionist trade policies and curtail the US’s role in the world.
Donald Trump has clinched the Republican presidential nomination, capping off a stunning political comeback fueled by grievance and vengeance and formally entering what’s poised to be the longest and costliest general election in recent memory.
The former president on Tuesday night crossed the threshold for the number of delegates needed to become the GOP nominee, the Associated Press reported. That allows Trump free rein to consolidate the Republican Party’s political operation and fully turn his attention toward a rematch with President Joe Biden.
