After much cajoling from Bill O’Reilly, Donald Trump said that [crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore] and [crscore]Marco Rubio[/crscore] were his biggest challengers but, “Who has my experience? I mean, nobody has ever done what I have done.”

Appearing on Fox News’s “The O’Reilly Factor” on Wednesday, Trump did his best to keep his cards close to his chest and he acknowledged that a candidate with a background in politics would be his biggest challenge but there are “things they don’t have.”

Granting that both Cruz and Rubio have been elected to public office, Trump suggested, “They don’t have my experience certainly.” 

I have created tens of thousands of jobs,” explained Trump. “I have built a company that’s worth many, many, many billions of dollars. It’s a great company with very little debt, tremendous cash flows, and I deal with people from all over the world. I deal with countries from all over the world. Who has my experience? I mean, nobody has ever done what I have done.”

O’Reilly responded to Trump suggesting, “Nobody with credibility is saying, ‘Look, Trump couldn’t handle the work.'”

Trump, evading O’Reilly’s statement added, “I was standing next to Rubio last night, we got along fantastically well. He is a nice guy and Ted has been fantastic. I have a lot of good relationships that you wouldn’t even believe. And you know last night, standing on that stage, people that you would think are not getting long with me or we don’t get along with, you know, we have actually some pretty good relationships. It would be surprising to people.”
