During his first press conference as president-elect Wednesday, Trump said that, if it happened to him, it would have been “the biggest story.”

“Can you imagine if Donald Trump got the questions to the debate?” Trump said. “It would have been the biggest story in the history of stories. And they would have said, ‘Immediately you have to get out of the race.’ Nobody even talked about it. It’s a very terrible thing.”
