"Look, nobody has better toys than I do," he said. "I can put them in the best planes, and bring them to the best resorts, anywhere in the world -- but that's a corrupt system. You're basically buying these people."
He reiterated this message on Twitter, writing that "Lyin' Ted Cruz can't get votes (I am millions ahead of him) so he has to get his delegates from the Republican bosses, It won't work!"
Lyin' Ted Cruz can't win with the voters so he has to sell himself to the bosses-I am millions of VOTES ahead! Hillary would destroy him & K
