Donald Trump's popularity with women has long since dropped.  Ted Cruz's popularity in New York, well that never really existed.  In the eyes of many political analysts (even those who normally side with the Republican Party), neither of the GOP frontrunners stands a chance against Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in the general election.

Is it time for the GOP to give up on winning and, as late-night comic Bill Maher suggests, punt? The party may have an easier time taking down a second President Clinton than defending the odd behavior of a President Trump. See what Maher has to say about Trump's strange presidential tweets in today's Punchlines, above.

Meanwhile Democratic candidates Clinton and Bernie Sanders failed the subway test in New York.  Saturday Night Live's Colin Jost and Michael Che tell us why that really doesn't matter.
