    He's gonna get some support in da South. Just look what's happened in Germany!

    "A number of German cafes have started to exclude traditional pork sausages from their menus in order not to offend the feelings of Muslim newcomers, Express reported.

    Members of German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s CDU party criticized the initiative and are planning to control that pork is further available at work and university canteens, according the article.

    “The protection of minorities — including for religious reasons — must not mean that the majority is overruled in their free decision by ill-conceived consideration,” representative of the party, Daniel Gunther said.

    According to the politician, those who want to refrain from eating pork can do so, but it does not mean that meat should disappear from all menus.

    The consumption of pork is a part of the German culture, he said, strictly opposing the new initiative."

    No more boudin? Lawd, say it isn't so!

    Angela Murkel is living high on the hog, not sure why she's doing this.

    Next thing you know, they won't be allowed to speak Pig Latin.

    He is too focused on his snout to do anything but wallow in his sty and pull on his pork. Makes you wonder what he does to bring home the bacon

    I blew my pun.

    Let me try this again.

    Angela Murkel is living high on the hog, no wonder she is against this.

    A much better pun, anyway.

    doing the math on the delegates:

    1039 awarded
    1435 remaining

    Trump has won 44 percent of the delegates (458)

    He needs 50 percent plus 1 to win the nomination

    March 15 winner take all result scenario (367 delegates up for grabs):

    1406 awarded
    1068 remaining

    Trump takes all states
    725 - will need to win 48 percent of the remaining delegates

    Trump loses only Ohio
    659 - will need to win 54 percent of the remaining delegates

    Donald Trump holds double digit leads in all states except Ohio in Real Clear Politics' average poll of polls. Even in Ohio, Trump holds a 2.5 point lead over Kasich.
