Democrats are needling Donald Trump over his loss in the Wisconsin primary on Tuesday, which has reinvigorated Republican rivals’ hopes at defeating the presidential front-runner.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) released a video Wednesday of media clips showing Trump describing various things as “unfair” a dozen times in as many seconds.

A child’s wail is heard as the clip wraps up. In a statement accompanying the release of the “Trumper-tantrum” video, the DNC accused the GOP candidate of trying to “play the victim.”

Trump said during a rally heading into the Wisconsin primary on Tuesday he could act “more presidential” if he wanted, but suggested it’d be “boring as hell.”

His campaign released a statement after his loss to Ted Cruz on Tuesday in which it portrayed the Texas senator’s win as illegitimate and unfair.
