The post-Indiana Republican commentary UPDATED

Update: Exclusive: President Fox Apologizes, Invites Trump to Mexico 

Breitbart Interviews Vicente Fox (Breitbart News)

 . . . "Earlier this year, Fox said that he would not pay for Trump’s “f*cking wall,” and called Trump ““Ignorant … crazy … egocentric … nasty … [a] false prophet.” Trump then called on Fox to apologize
"On Wednesday, he did so — in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News — and added that he wanted Trump to come to Mexico to see the border from the other side.
“ 'I apologize. Forgiveness is one of the greatest qualities that human beings have, is the quality of a compassionate leader. You have to be humble. You have to be compassionate. You have to love thy neighbor,” Fox explained to Breitbart News while sitting in the hotel of the J.W. Marriott in Santa Monica, California on Wednesday afternoon." . . .
Bobby Jindal will vote for Trump -- grudgingly   . . . And in a general election match-up with Hillary Clinton, Jindal said he'd get behind Trump." . . .
The Weaknesses that Doomed Ted Cruz  ". . . Cruz’s victory in Iowa was misleading, masking his identity as a candidate who would ultimately struggle to appeal beyond his core supporters. “His niche was always on the far right, being the most conservative guy,” says a top Republican strategist. 

News Analysis: Trump could beat Hillary Clinton with toned down rhetoric: experts



. . . "While Trump has a high negative rate -- the rate at which people dislike a candidate -- those of Clinton are nearly as high, as a number of Americans find her stiff and unapproachable, and see her as someone who does not understand the needs of ordinary Americans.

"But perhaps the most telling is that Clinton has failed to galvanize her party or excite her supporters in the same way as Trump has done.

"This has been shown by strong Democratic support for rival Senator Bernie Sanders, who put up a tough fight against Clinton over the past several months, despite Clinton just six months ago being considered a shoo-in for the nomination.

"Sanders is expected to stay in the nomination race longer after his win in Indiana Tuesday night.

"For a virtual unknown -- and a socialist at that, a philosophy seen by many as un-American -- to gain so much enthusiasm from voters demonstrates that Clinton is a weak candidate, many analysts believe." . . .
