Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump expressed irritation with his party and its original 2016 frontrunner while speaking in Las Vegas Saturday night.
"It would be helpful if the Republicans could help us a little bit" on the campaign trail, he said, adding, "You know? Okay? Just a little bit."
Next, Trump turned his ire to former candidate Jeb Bush. Speaking of a rumored "revolt" against him in the ranks of GOP delegates, Trump insisted "Jeb is working on the movement, just so you understand." He alluded to someone else also allegedly fomenting revolt, but declined to name that person.

Earlier in the day Trump had denied such a revolt existed, calling it a tall tale created by the media. "It's all made up by the press, folks. It's a hoax," he said. "This is a story — who are they going to pick? I beat everybody. I beat the hell out of them."
