Donald Trump campaigned in Colorado Springs, Colo., on Tuesday.
During his remarks, the Republican Party’s nominee continued his criticism of the media, claiming the press is rigging the 2016 presidential election.
“The press has created a rigged system,” said Trump, “poisoning the minds of many of our voters.”
“They have rigged it from the beginning by telling totally false stories, most recently about phony allegations where I have been under constant attack,” he said, referring to a recent article by The New York Times. “They’ve attacked my business… my wonderful family. They attack my temperament. But I built an incredible company… and I’m fortunate to have a beautiful and loving family.”
“And my temperament has always been just about my greatest strength,” Trump added. “We have a winning temperament. Our country doesn’t win anymore.”
He told the audience that this election “is an election about truth.”
“And you’re not gonna get it from the dishonest media,” Trump fired.
“This is another Brexit, believe me,” he said. “They are so worried. That’s why they become vicious and hostile and dirty.”
