Trump breaks Twitter silence after loss
My experience in Iowa was a great one. I started out with all of the experts saying I couldn’t do well there and ended up in 2nd place. Nice

Because I was told I could not do well in Iowa, I spent very little there – a fraction of Cruz & Rubio. Came in a strong second. Great honor

The media has not covered my long-shot great finish in Iowa fairly. Brought in record voters and got second highest vote total in history!

I will be talking about my wonderful experience in Iowa and the simultaneous unfair treatment by the media-later in New Hampshire. Big crowd

I don’t believe I have been given any credit by the voters for self-funding my campaign, the only one. I will keep doing, but not worth it!

{mosads}Trump regularly uses his Twitter account, with nearly 6 million followers, to go after his political and business foes, as well as to send numerous tweets a day boasting about his poll numbers.
He offered a measured speech Monday night congratulating Cruz after the Texas senator took 28 percent of the vote compared to Trump’s 24 percent. Marco Rubio took 23 percent for third place.
