The third primary contest in the Republican presidential nomination handed Donald Trump his second victory in a race that has seen hundreds of millions of dollars spent and a dozen candidates drop out.
The real estate mogul and reality television host won the first-in-the-South primary in South Carolina Saturday, adding legitimacy to a campaign that many wrote off since even before he officially announced in June.
"There's nothing easy about running for president I can tell you.
It's tough, it's nasty, it's mean, it's vicious, it's beautiful.
When you win it's beautiful" Trump said Saturday night with his family flanked at this sides.
Meanwhile, Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush suspended his campaign Saturday after a finish far behind the leaders, garnering just 8 percent of the vote in a state that has been loyal to the Bush family for three decades.
