After accusing Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) of "illegally" stealing a win from the Iowa caucuses, Donald Trump said Wednesday that he'll "probably" sue over the results of the vote.

Trump said this in an interview on Boston Herald Radio

When asked if he would file a formal complaint over the caucuses' results, Trump replied, "probably."

"What [Cruz] did is unthinkable," Trump said, later stating that Cruz was a "really fraudulent" character.

Earlier in the day, Trump fired off a raging tweetstorm accusing Cruz of cheating in Iowa. Trump even suggested the Republican Party take the unprecedented step of holding a do-over election in Iowa or nullifying Cruz's results.

you and newgeezer are both full of crap.

That was at 5:20 PST, 7:20 CST. I made the same mistake until I realized my Twitter account was set for PST.

(Apology accepted.)

True that. Trump is not a conservative.

But don’t worry. Trump has already passed the point of no return as he himself has gone too far in his pushy, bully “New York Values” attacks and insults. I believe most FReepers now see Trump as he really is and always has been.

Just keep your head down, try not to engage in back and forth insults with Trumpers, and enjoy the long and bumpy ride between now and November.

At least that’s what I’M trying to do.

Yeah, no...I don’t buy that twitter time stamp story at all.

Besides which you admit receiving an email from Cruz at 7pm that urging you to spread the “news” that Carson was dropping out.

It's very disappointing to me, but from what I see, the Trumpanzee contingent here is still pretty dominant.

After I changed my Twitter setting from Pacific to Central time (to match my email account), everything lines up. Except for the alleged Dan Gabriel tweet, everything below I personally gathered from the original tweets and emails I received:

• Monday, 6:43 PM CST @moody (CNN) tweets "Carson won't go to NH/SC, but instead will head home to Florida for some R&R. He'll be in DC Thursday"
• 6:56 PM Spence Rogers (Cruz campaign) email "Carson Likely to Drop Out"
• 7:05 PM Jason Osborne (Carson campaign) tweets Carson "Not suspending -- getting fresh clothes then back out Wednesday"
• (unconfirmed) 7:07 PM Dan Gabriel (@danpgabriel) tweets "Source inside Ben #Carson's NH campaign just CONFIRMED to me: @RealBenCarson is OUT" (allegedly tweeted & since deleted)
• 7:08 PM @CNN tweets "After the #IAcaucus, @RealBenCarson plans to take a break from campaigning" (tinyurl.com/j8pbmo8)
• 7:13 PM Spence Rogers (Cruz campaign) email "CNN Reporting Ben Carson Will Stop Campaigning After Iowa"
• 7:19 PM Steve King tweets Carson is "Skipping NH & SC is the equivalent of suspending"
• 7:20 PM Steve King tweets "Carson looks like he is out. Iowans need to know before they vote."
• Tuesday, 2:09 PM: Steve King tweets "I respect Ben Carson & regret any miscommunications. Perhaps [his] supporters r unaware of this CNN story tinyurl.com/j8pbmo8"

I post what I believe to be true. Whether you want to believe, I couldn't care less.
