LAS VEGAS—Notching three in a row, Donald Trump decisively won Nevada’s Republican caucuses Tuesday as Marco Rubio bid to elbow out Ted Cruz for second place in an increasingly urgent effort to slam the brakes on the Trump juggernaut.

Trump now can claim victories in the West, the South and Northeast—a testament to his broad appeal among the mad-as-hell voters making their voices heard in the 2016 presidential race. His rivals are running out of time to stop him.

“We’re winning, winning, winning the country,” Trump declared. “Soon, the country is going to start winning, winning, winning.”

It's going to be an amazing two months. We might not even need the two months, folks, to be honest.
