Donald Trump, fresh off a rout in his native New York, is predicting more wins in a series of East Coast states that are holding their primaries next week.
During a rally Wednesday night in Berlin, Maryland, he joked that he was also poised to do well in neighboring, tax-friendly Delaware "because I have so many corporations registered in Delaware."
That drew laughs, but Trump's praise for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady drew loud boos in Baltimore Ravens country.
Trump also suggested for the first time that the back pay he wouldd demand from NATO nations could be used to be pay down the national debt.
