Calls for "revolution" and march on Washington during election night meltdown

As election results came in showing President Obama's victory, Trump unleashed a series of furious tweets calling the election a "sham" and a "travesty." He incorrectly claimed Obama lost the popular vote, tweeted "We should have a revolution in this country!", and urged supporters to "march on Washington and stop this travesty." He later deleted some of the most incendiary posts but stated he had "no regrets" about the outburst.

β€œWe can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!” β€” Tweet sent on Election Night, November 6, 2012 Quote verified against source
