"This was probably one of the most peaceful, one of the most beautiful, one of the most love-filled conventions in the history of conventions. When they talk about unity, I want to tell you, that was unity. That was unity. Right? I saw you last night. That was unity. That was amazing," Trump told his supporters at an event here.
"We're going to win New York. We're going to try and win New York. You know, if we win New York, it's over. Right? It's over," Trump said.
The billionaire from New York self-funded his primary campaign said that so far he has contributed USD 60 million from his own pocket.
Claiming that this was a successful convention, Trump said Ted Cruz by not endorsing him has ruined his political career.
Cruz did not endorse him in the Cleveland convention.
"You know, he'll come and endorse over the next little while, he'll come and endorse, because he has no choice. But I don't want his endorsement. What difference does it make? I don't want his endorsement. I have such great endorse -- I don't want his endorsement. Ted, stay home, relax, enjoy yourself," Trump said.
Trump said he knew what Cruz was going to speak.
"It's dishonorable, but not a nice thing to do. And I talk this way, because we're all together. We created one of the most successful conventions in the history of conventions," he said.
While he praised his sons and daughter for giving impressive speeches at the convention, Trump said he does not want them to stay in business.
"I just don't want them running for political office, because somebody's got to stay behind and run the business. I mean, you know, we can't go crazy," he said.
Today Trump used considerable party of his speech attacking Cruz, his wife and his father.
