Donald Trump: Debate audience was biased

PLYMOUTH, N.H. Donald Trump charged Sunday that students at Saint Anselm College sold their tickets at Saturday night’s debate to big money donors who booed him on stage.

“The kids made a fortune last night. The kids were scalping tickets,” Trump told a rally at Plymouth State University, accusing rich donors who support other candidates -- chiefly Jeb Bush -- of scooping up the audience tickets and booing him.

“I looked at that audience, I said, 'This is really tough. I am their worst nightmare,’ “ he said. He charged that he got only 20 tickets, despite being “the one who brought all the action.” Without him participating, he suggested, there would have been “four people in line.”

The school said it didn’t happen: “Transfer or the sale of a ticket is not possible according to regulations of the (Republican National Committee) ticketing system and the identification requirements of the Secret Service,” a college spokesman said via email. “We know of no instance of a student reselling or attempting to resell a ticket."
