The anti–Donald Trump movement seemed to hit its peak over the past week when Trump rivals Ted Cruz and John Kasich appeared to team up against the Republican frontrunner.
Unfortunately for #NeverTrump, the team-up didn't seem to matter much on Tuesday as Trump swept the night's East Coast primaries. And the internet took notice:

Can't believe the plan Cruz/Kasich hatched like three days ago to stop Trump failed.

The good news for #NeverTrump? Trump is really far behind Hillary Clinton, who won Tuesday's primaries on the Democratic side, in the general election polls. So there's still a good chance he won't be president.
