Trump Threatens GOP: ‘I’ll Do Something that Makes Them Very Unhappy’

‘I have done a really great service to the Republican Party’

GUTHRIE: “You said yesterday you feel in a sense if the republican establishment gets together and has some organized way to try to defeat you, that they’re violating their pledge to you. If that’s the case, what’s your next step? What would you do?”
TRUMP: “If they violate the pledge, which possibly they’ve already done, as you understand, I will do something that would make them unhappy. I have millions of millions of followers.

I don’t know if you covered — everybody covered it, but I don’t know if you talked about the number of people. 35,000 people in a big football stadium.”
LAUER: “Right.”
TRUMP: “He said he’s never seen anything like that and he’s been in politics 30 years. He’s never seen an event like that, with that kind of people. We have tremendous support.

TRUMP: “It’s a far bigger party. I’ve done a great service for the Republican Party.”
LAUER: “Let’s choose that as a good place to stop, Mr. Trump. Hopefully we’ll get to talk to you after Super Tuesday. Thank you for your time this morning.”
