No, he didn’t. I think what was said was not in reference to the general election, but of being deprived of the nomination at the convention if he had the requisite number of delegates.
“I think what was said was not in reference to the general election, but of being deprived of the nomination at the convention if he had the requisite number of delegates.”
But that is not what he said. He literally said that if he was short of what his own party says the requirement should be but is ahead of everyone else and he loses, there could be riots.
I think well win before getting to the convention, but I can tell you, if we didnt and if were 20 votes short or if were, you know, 100 short and were at 1,100 and somebody else is at 500 or 400, because were way ahead of everybody. I dont think you can say that we dont get it automatically. I think youd have riots. I think youd have riots.” - trump March 16, 2016
