Trump Rips NBC News Report on Forgiving $50 Million Campaign Loan

Donald Trump blasted NBC News on Twitter Thursday after the network reported that the presumptive Republican nominee had not provided proof that he had forgiven $50 million in loans to his campaign.

Here's Trump's rant:

The very dishonest @NBCNews refuses to accept the fact that I have forgiven my $50 million loan to my campaign. Done deal!

I have self funded my winning primary campaign with an approx. $50 million loan. I have totally terminated the loan!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 30, 2016

The reason I put up approximately $50 million for my successful primary campaign is very simple, I want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

NBC reported that the Federal Election Commission had no record of Trump forgiving the loans, despite him saying that week that he had done so.

He had said that they would be reclassified as candidate donations.

Hope Hicks, a Trump campaign spokeswoman, told NBC that the documentation "will be filed with the next regularly scheduled FEC report," which is July 20.
