Donald Trump went off on Twitter over his upset that President Barack Obama won the election, however, he later deleted parts of his Twitter rant and commented on why so much attention has been drawn to his political statements. 

The business mogul called the election "a total sham and a travesty" and said the Electoral College was "a disaster for a democracy." He also added, "The phoney electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation."

When it was announced that Obama won the election, Trump tweeted "Well, back to the drawing board!," "our nation is a once great nation divided" and "the world is laughing at us." He then encouraged a "revolution in this country."

On Wednesday, he deleted the comments that called for a revolution and the one incorrectly stating that Obama had lost the popular vote. He tweeted on Wednesday that the election was "the Republicans to win," but that Mitt Romney had not been able to connect with the voters and to get him the 270 Electoral votes he needed. 

NBC anchor Brian Williams read some of Trump's Twitter posts on air, saying he had "driven well past the last exit to relevance and veered into something closer to irresponsible."

"The Apprentice" host also tweeted on Wednesday in regards to Williams, saying, "[Williams] knows that I think his newscast has become totally boring so he took a shot at me last night...Wouldn't you love to have my ratings?"

He then wrote on Facebook "Amazing, various celebrities were far harsher than me with political statements--- but media doesn't care about them. It is a great honor to have the media so focused on my statements when they don't cover others."

Two of Trump's most recent Twitter posts on Wednesday included the following: "The stock market and US dollar are both plunging today. Welcome to @BarackObama's second term."

"Millions without electricity across NY & NJ. The media has covered for Obama's massive failure. Can you imagine if this was another Pres?"

Trump was known for endorsing his Romney support and in October he challenged claims that Obama was born in the United States and eligible to be a U.S. president. He offered the president $5 million for a charity of his choice if the democrat would present his college and passport records indicating his place of birth. The president did not comply.
