Donald Trump at Orlando rally

While speaking to thousands of his supporters on Friday night at Central Florida Fairgrounds in Orlando, President-elect Donald Trump admitted for the first time that his supporters were “vicious, violent, nasty, mean… and going crazy” during the 2016 presidential election campaign. But he said that following his victory at the presidential election his supporters have turned “mellow.”

“You people were vicious, violent, screaming, ‘Where’s the wall? We want the wall!’ Screaming, ‘Prison! Prison! Lock her up!’ I mean you are going crazy,” Trump told a crowd of about 11, 000 supporters, according to CNN. “I mean, you were nasty and mean and vicious and you wanted to win, right?”

“But now, you’re mellow and you’re cool and you’re not nearly as vicious or violent, right? Because we won, right?” he continued. “Now you’re sort of laying back… you’re basking in the glory of victory.”

But soon after he described his fans as “mellow” the crowd broke into prolonged “lock her up, lock her up” chanting.

Trump’s reaction to the chanting was, “Oh, that’s so terrible,” The Huffington Post reports.

Trump also railed against the media for “dishonest” coverage of the election. He accused the media of distorting the exit polls on Election Day, according to CNN.

He pointed to some reporters at the rally, saying “these very dishonest people.”

“They’ve written very dishonestly about all of us,” he added.

One miffed supporter who, according to CNN, had obtained a media pass from the Trump transition office, called for Clinton to be “waterboarded.” Another threw an empty water bottle at CNN reporter Jeremy Diamond, calling him “trash.”
