Cruz cannot win GOP nomination: Trump

US Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has said his rival Ted Cruz will not be able to win the party’s nomination.

“I’ve got 22 states. What does he have? Nine? He’s got no road to the nomination in my opinion,” Trump said in Watertown, New York on Saturday.

“After this weekend when he gets wiped out in New York – which he will – he no longer has a road to the nomination.”

The billionaire real estate mogul took aim at the Republican National Committee, saying the “rigged system” was seeking to deny him the nomination in spite of having more votes than any other candidate.

“The Republican National Committee better get going because they are going to have a tough July with that convention,” he said. “The system is all rigged.”

“We have a movement going on like they’ve never seen before,” Trump said of his campaign. “The only way they can stop this movement is if we don’t do a good job on Tuesday.”

His remarks came after Cruz won 14 of 14 Republican National Convention delegates in Wyoming on Saturday, a victory that marks the third time in three weeks that his campaign has beset Trump.
