Trump: Clinton does not want to face me

Donald Trump hasn’t yet clinched the GOP presidential nomination, but he’s already pivoting toward the general election and slamming his likely Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.

{mosads}While campaigning in New York on Friday ahead of the state’s primary on Tuesday, where he’s polling nearly 30 points ahead of his Republican opponents, he tried out a new moniker for the former secretary of State: “Crooked Hillary.”

He appears to be sticking with that one. 

“We have Crooked Hillary — she’s been crooked from the beginning, and to think she has a shot at becoming president, we can’t let it happen,” Trump said Sunday at a rally in Poughkeepsie, N.Y.

He then warned the Clintons that he’s the last GOP candidate they want to face in November.

“The only person that Crooked Hillary Clinton does not want to run against is Donald Trump,” he said. “Two months ago, we gave her a little dose. She said something about me, I gave it back, and believe me, that was a bad night in the Clinton household.”

He also predicted a Trump v. Clinton match-up would lead to the largest voter turnout in U.S. history.

“Everybody says it,” he said.
