Happy Monday, everyone! Thanks to the start of Daylight Saving Time, we're now one hour closer to President Trump installing a very classy gold roof on the White House. Or perhaps we're one hour closer to to the throwback return of the Clinton era like the "Salute Your Shorts" comeback nobody was really clamoring for. Either way, whether we're dealing with longer-than-usual lines at Starbucks or attempting to drag children out of bed an hour earlier than usual, I think we can all set aside our political differences for one day and take a serious look into this whole #stopDST thing.

In today's For the Record, let's take a look at the top Trumpy moments from this weekend's political talk shows and the reasons that Tuesday's vote won't be a primary-season coronation for either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton.

What we talk about when we talk about Trump

"From what I saw, the young man stuck his finger up in the air, and the other man just sort of had it." — Donald Trump, "Meet the Press"

Meet the Press led off with a live interview of Trump, who defended his supporters' right to protect the sanctity of the air itself from the fingers of those who would do it harm. Side note: Trump appeared on NBC's Meet the Press, CBS' Face the Nation, CNN's State of the Union and Fox News Sunday to talk about violent incidents at rallies — and none of the four interviewers asked Trump about allegations that his campaign manager Cory Lewandowski pulled Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields to the ground at a Tuesday campaign event. (Great journalism, guys!) Meanwhile, Chuck Todd tried to declare this week's upcoming contests as "Separation Tuesday," which ... sure, why not. I don't have a better idea.

"(W)hen you try to shut down and shout down speech, that's not what the First Amendment allows." — Ted Cruz, "This Week"

Ted Cruz, who allegedly memorized the Constitution as a teenager, wasn't able to grasp the difference between the First Amendment (which prevents U.S. government entities from denying your ability to speak) with the more general idea of "freedom of speech" (which says that others shouldn't deny your ability to speak, but isn't actually enforced by anyone). Don't get me wrong — freedom of speech is a fantastic idea, but in this case the document that best covers the rights of speakers and protesters is the University of Illinois at Chicago Pavilion's rental agreement, which Cruz may or may not have committed to memory.

"Well, that's not ... yes, that's not exactly how it played out, Jake." — Marco Rubio, "State of the Union"

After launching into a tirade calling Trump "reckless" and "dangerous," State of the Union host Jake Tapper asked Rubio, "I brought this up at the debate in Miami on Thursday evening, and you simply said you were concerned about violence in general in this society ... why didn't you say anything Thursday night? Why did you hesitate to criticize this when Trump was on the stage?" Marco muttered something about being the fourth candidate to answer the question. You go get him next time, Rubio! If there IS a next time, that is.

"(A)t the end of the day, he's not going to be the nominee, and we're going to learn from this." — John Kasich, "Face the Nation"

On Face the Nation, John Dickerson interviewed a man with one-eighth of Trump's delegate count who seemed pretty confident that Trump wasn't going to clinch the nomination before the Republican Convention. Kasich said much the same thing on Meet the Press. "Don't be surprised if I go to the convention with the largest number of delegates," he told Chuck Todd. Todd, who declared it "mathematically impossible" for Kasich to win, reserves the right to be surprised.

'President Sanders' slightly more likely than 'President Kasich'

Before last Tuesday, Bernie Sanders' chances at winning the nomination looked deader than Bernie Lomax in "Weekend at Bernie's." After his win in Michigan, suddenly his campaign looks like voodoo-reanimated Bernie Lomax in "Weekend at Bernie's 2." (Did I actually watch the sequel? Look, if you want to judge me based on what I've seen on TV, remember that I've watched literally all the debates so far.) The Sanders campaign is using his unforeseen victory in the Mitten State to drum up enthusiasm and fundraising dollars in advance of this week's contests. Recently released polls show Bernie gaining momentum in Illinois and Ohio, so a Sanders comeback may not be entirely out of the question. It might be as unlikely as a studio exec signing off on "Weekend at Bernie's 3," but it's still possible.

Why Tuesday won't end anything

The only contests on the primary calendar this week will be held Tuesday, when voters in Florida, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina and Ohio head to the polls. The best part: All five states are in the Eastern and Central time zones, which means the results should be announced at an early hour. As much as I love the West Coast and the ability of all 50 states to have their say, my favorite things right now are (in order):

A good night's sleep Democracy

On the Republican side, all three non-Trumps are banking on a contested convention at this point — especially Rubio and Kasich, who hope to prove their viability in their home states of Florida and Ohio, respectively. The three-headed Cruzbiosich monster needs to claim about 45 percent of the remaining delegates to prevent Trump from getting to the magic number of 1,237 and force a contested convention — and, in reality, probably more than that in order to not look like they're thwarting the will of the voters too much. The big prizes are winner-take-all Florida and winner-take-most Illinois, while the remaining three allocate their delegates proportional to the vote.

On the Democratic side, as we mentioned, Sanders appears to be rallying. Also of note: Unlike the GOP, Democrats don't allow their states to be winner-take-all. In other words, Tuesday's results won't end Bernie Sanders' campaign, no matter what. Whether that provides a ray of hope or prolongs the agony is a matter of perspective.

You'd think Trump would be avoiding someone nicknamed the 'Hit King' right now

Trump tweeted a photo of a Pete Rose-signed baseball that seems to indicate baseball's "Hit King" is endorsing Trump. The reverse side says "I have $1,000 riding on this," probably.
