VIRGINIA, Mar 03 (BBC): Donald Trump won a string of Republican presidential contests on Saturday, edging closer to becoming the party's candidate in November's election as he attacked his likely opponent Joe Biden.
The former president won the Missouri, Michigan and Idaho caucuses comprehensively, continuing his clean sweep of states so far.
Mr Trump, 77, told supporters at a rally in Virginia that he was "on a rocket to the Republican nomination". He is on track to secure it next week.
