Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says that if the GOP tries to deny him the party’s nomination even if he’s within reach of sufficient delegates at convention time, “We’d have riots.”
Trump tells CNN’s “Newsday” Wednesday morning he’s brought large numbers of people into the party — “The really big story is how many people are voting in these primaries,” — and he says “if you just disenfranchise these people, I think you would have problems like you’ve never seen before.”
He tells anchor Chris Cuomo, “I wouldn’t lead it,” but said unrest could happen.
Trump cited a hypothetical scenario where he’d go to the Cleveland convention in July with roughly 1,000 delegates and a rival would show up there with 500.
He said he believes he will nail down the nomination before the convention and said he couldn’t imagine failing to get the party’s nomination virtually “automatically” in such a scenario. Trump said “I don’t even want to think about” what he’d do if he’s in such an advantageous position but still does not become the nominee.

Threatening violence when you don’t get your way is the way of Fascists. It is the way of Terrorists. Yet there are still commenters here who approve of him!
Im not so sure there would be rioting which is mostly a minhag of the blacks who like liberal jews, gays and illegal immigrants arent voting for him anyway.
