{mosads}News outlets on Thursday reported that Trump has secured a majority of the available delegates to the Republican National Convention.

The Associated Press first reported Thursday that Trump surpassed 1,237 delegates — the magic number that gives him a majority — after a small number of unbound party delegates that told the news service that they would support him.

The photo shows Trump eating french fries, with a McDonald’s hamburger, a Diet Coke, paper plates and packets of ketchup in front of him.

Trump tweeted in 2012, “I have never seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke.”
