Donald Trump made a rare allowance on CNBC on Thursday that he may lose the presidential election, but he said he will not back away from his uncensored style.

"I'm a truth teller. All I do is tell the truth," Trump said on "Squawk Box" in a phone interview. "And if at the end of 90 days, I've fallen short ... it's OK. I go back to a very good way of life."

Trump has previously questioned the integrity of the electoral system, which had some outsiders wondering if he was preparing an explanation for a potential loss.

"I'm afraid the election's going to be rigged, I have to be honest," Trump recently told an Ohio crowd.

However, in his comments Thursday he seemed to be preparing for a loss with a more conciliatory tone.

"I think we're going to have victory, but we'll see," Trump said. "At the end its either going to work or I'm going to, you know, I'm going to have a very, very nice long vacation."
