Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump said Wednesday morning while he’s confident he can unite “much” of the party around his candidacy, the remaining critics who don’t want to get on board can hit the road.

“I am confident that I can unite much of it. Some of it, I don’t want. There were statements made about me that those people can go away and maybe come back in eight years after we serve two terms,” Trump said during a phone interview on the “Today” show. “

He continued: “Honestly, there are some people I really don’t want. I don’t think it’s necessary. People would be voting for me, they’re not voting for the party.”

The billionaire also said while he had heard rumors that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was considering leaving the race, the senator’s Tuesday night exit surprised him.

While the two former rivals haven’t spoken on the phone yet, according to Trump, the presumptive nominee said, “I would certainly be expecting to be talking to Ted” soon.
