Donald Trump says it was 'a great honor' to vote for himself in the New York primary

Donald Trump had a really, really great time voting for himself Tuesday morning in the New York Republican presidential primary. Just minutes after he cast his ballot for the Republican frontrunner — himself — he got straight to bragging about how "putting in that vote today was really something terrific."
"It was a great honor, really. Who would have thought?" Trump told reporters. "This was just a great honor and I think it's a great honor for New York."
The polls are projecting a "yuge" win for Trump in New York Tuesday, which should do wonders for his ego.
