At a rally in Toledo, Ohio Thursday, Donald Trump suggested the election should be cancelled because his opponent’s policies were unpalatable.

“What a difference. You know, what a difference this is,” Trump said of the differences between his and Hillary Clinton’s tax plans.

“And just thinking to myself right now, we should just cancel the election and just give it to Trump, right? What are we even having it for? What are we having it for?” he asked. “Her policies are so bad.”
