Wins on two fronts for Donald Trump. Trump easily won Republican caucuses in Nevada and the U.S. Virgin Islands on Thursday to become the party’s nominee in November’s presidential election, while the Supreme Court appears wary of disqualifying the Republican tycoon from voting in Colorado.

Trump, the front-runner in the Republican presidential nomination race, was the only major candidate at the party’s caucuses in Nevada and is expected to win the state’s 26 delegates at the party’s nominating convention in July after the organization Edison Research named him the winner last night.

Earlier yesterday, Thursday, Trump had easily won the Republican caucuses in the US Virgin Islands, adding four more delegates to his power. The former US president won 182 votes, 74% of the total of 246 votes, defeating his last remaining opponent in the Republican race, Nikki Haley, who received 26% with 64 votes.

The Nevada caucuses, which were organized by the state’s Trump-friendly GOP group, came two days after the state’s primary resulted in a humiliating defeat for Haley.

Despite being the only major candidate running Tuesday in Nevada’s primary, Haley was defeated after tens of thousands of Trump supporters turned out to cast a “none of these candidates” ballot, an option who garnered 63% of the vote to Haley’s 30%.

The Supreme Court is leaning towards Trump

Trump spent the morning yesterday watching press coverage of a hearing to announce arguments in the case he is appealing to the US Supreme Court over Colorado’s decision to disqualify him from this year’s ballot for engaging in “rebellion.” during the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

The judges seemed wary about Colorado’s action to ban him and expressed concern about the precedent it might set.

Speaking to reporters later, Trump characterized the Colorado case “another intervention in the elections by the Democrats”.

He also said he was preparing to leave Mar-A-Lago, his property in Florida, to travel to Nevada for the conventions.

“We expect to have a very big night,” said Trump, who is closing in on winning the Republican presidential nomination after back-to-back victories last month in Iowa and New Hampshire.
