"We got the highest vote count in the history of the Republican Party."

— Donald Trump on Tuesday, July 5th, 2016 in a speech in Raleigh, N.C.

Donald Trump set the record for the most GOP primary votes ever. But that's not his only record

Trump said he got the most votes in the history of the Republican Party primary system.

That’s accurate. He received 13.3 million votes, beating George W. Bush’s record of 11.5 million votes.

Yet what Trump failed to mention is that he also holds the record for the most votes cast against a primary candidate, and that he’s one
of only a few Republican frontrunners in modern history to have been supported by less than half of the party’s primary voters.

Because Trump’s claim was accurate but missing that context, we rate this claim Mostly True.
