Donald Trump called into the Washington Post today to discuss the state of his campaign.
Trump told reporter Robert Costa he didn’t need FOX to win the election.
Trump tells me he doesn't need Fox; they need him. "Without me, they would have had a million people watching, not 24 million."

Trump told Robert Costa he is staying in the campaign and the GOP establishment will not push him out.
How Trump ends call: with a memo to the GOP establishment. "I have a lot of money and I'm not getting out. I'm going to win."
