Washington – After postings wins in Louisiana and Kentucky’s presidential nominating contests, Republican front-runner Donald Trump says it is “probably time” for rival Marco Rubio to drop out of Republican race for president.

The Florida senator finished no better than third in any of Saturday’s primary elections and caucuses. Meanwhile, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz won in Maine and Kansas.

Trump congratulated Cruz for his victories. But he joked that it’s natural that Cruz won Maine because, “it’s very close to Canada, let’s face it.”

Trump has questioned Cruz’s eligibility to be president, because the Texas lawmaker was born on Canadian soil. Many legal experts have said that Cruz is a natural born citizen who is eligible to serve as president.
