Addressing a campaign rally Monday at airport in Avoca in battleground Pennsylvania, Trump called situation “very dangerous, and I mean dangerous, physically dangerous.”

He argued that “you can’t extend dates” and claimed - without evidence - that cheating goes on in Democratic stronghold of Philadelphia.
