BREAKING: Donald Trump is officially the presumptive GOP nominee for President

According to Decision Desk HQ, projections indicate that former President Trump will emerge victorious in the GOP primary in Washington, securing the Republican presidential nomination and positioning him for a potential rematch against President Biden.

Trump secured a minimum of 1,215 delegates, which is the threshold required to clinch the Republican nomination. Before the Tuesday primaries, Trump had garnered 1,077 delegates, leaving a gap of at least 138 delegates to be secured.

Across the GOP nominating contests in Georgia, Hawaii, Mississippi, and Washington state, a total of 161 delegates were available for allocation.

Trump dominated the Republican primary, facing off against several notable politicians including former US Ambassador Nikki Haley and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. He emerged victorious in nearly all contests except for Vermont and Washington, DC, thereby solidifying his support within the Republican primary electorate.

"My first acts as your next President will be to Close the Border, DRILL, BABY, DRILL, and Free the January 6 Hostages being wrongfully imprisoned!" Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday.

Trump has been surging in the polls and has made significant strides with young people, women, and voters of color.

Earlier in the evening, President Joe Biden locked up his nomination as the Democratic party's presidential candidate. Heading into Tuesday night's contests, Biden had 1,872 delegates and needed 1,968 to clinch the party's renomination, which he earned in Georgia's primary.

Following the victory, Trump released a video saying, “It's your favorite president speaking to you on a really great day of victory. One week ago, we had something called Super Tuesday and it was indeed super because we won at numbers that nobody has ever seen before. Records in virtually every state. And tonight, likewise. But this one got us over the top.”

Trump added, “We now have to go on to victory because our country's in serious trouble. We have millions and millions of people flowing in. We have no respect on the world stage. What we say doesn't mean a thing anymore. And to have that happen is unthinkable.”

“We have an economy that outside of certain little areas is doing very poorly," the former president continued. "And we have something very, very important. We have a United States military that has to be taken care of.”

“Last week was something very special, Super Tuesday, but now we have to get back to work because we have the worst president in the history of our country. His name is Joe Biden, sometimes referred to as Crooked Joe Biden, and he must be defeated. Our nation is failing. We're a nation that is in serious decline. We've never had a situation like this where we're not respected. We're laughed at. We're considered almost a joke.”

“We're going to turn it around. We're going to drill baby drill. We're going to close our borders. We're going to do things like nobody's ever seen before, and we're going to make our nation's economy be the best ever in the world. We had the best economy ever. Just a short while ago, and we're going to have that again.”

“We're going to have people come into our country, but they're going to come in legally. And we're going to get your energy costs down by numbers that nobody would have said were even possible. We have some sections of this country that are paying the highest numbers in the history of our country and among the most expensive energy anywhere in the world. And yet we have more liquid gold, I call it. under our feet than any other nation. Just three years ago, we were energy-independent. And now we're going around begging for energy. So we're not going to have that anymore.”

“We're going to have a strong country. We're going to have a respected country. We have to win an election and we should win it by a lot because there's never been anybody worse at doing that job. than Joe Biden.”

"So we're not going to take time to celebrate. We'll celebrate in eight months when the election is over. November 5th, I believe, will go down as the most important day in the history of our country. So start thinking about it. Start thinking about your vote, because this vote is going to be the most important vote you've ever cast.”

“For this evening and for last week and for all the weeks before for the tremendous success we've had in this primary, I want to thank everybody. But much more importantly, we have to get to work to beat Joe Biden, the worst administration, the worst president in the history of our country. They are destroying our country and we're not going to let that happen.”
