Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump criticized the Republican party on Sunday, and said that it was not “being run properly.”

Trump told CNN host Jake Tapper that he was representing “a lot of anger out there” in his bid for the White House, including people angry at the Republican party.

“And a lot of them are angry at the way the republican party is being run, Jake,” Trump said on “State of the Union.” “And the Republican party is not being run properly.”

Tapper asked Trump what he thought of a hashtag on Twitter that rival Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) used called “#neverTrump” which some used to say they would never vote for the businessman in the election.

Trump said that Rubio could do “whatever he wants” and noted that he signed a pledge to run as a Republican in the election.

“And the pledge is a two-way street And if it’s not that way, they’re going to have a big problem with me,” Trump said, adding that he could “play that game.”
