Answers:
- Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?Ohio and Pennsylvania
- What message will you emphasize as you accept your party's nomination for President of the United States?I am calling out the leadership class on their failures, and because of this many lies have been spread about me. I support legal immigration and a safe zone for Syrian refugees, but you'd have no idea if you were listening to the folks in the media.
- To what extent will you attack Bill Clinton's history of infidelity, impeachment, and so on as you campaign?We won't say anything about this, except when Ms. Clinton attacks us. We will bring it up in that case as a counterattack.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's equivocation on the Benghazi attacks in 2012?A lot of Republicans made themselves look pretty silly over this issue. We have plenty of over things to bring up.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's decision to set up a private email server in her home, while Secretary of State?Whenever Ms. Clinton implies that I'm unqualified to serve as President, we will immediately ask what was going on her brain when she installed this server?
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's 2002 vote to authorize the war in Iraq?This invasion was one of the biggest disasters in the history of the United States. We're going to dredge up a lot of memories about this before our campaign is through.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton for her changing views on gay marriage, criminal justice, illegal immigration, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or other issues?Hillary Clinton has been on both sides of so many issues it's pathetic. I'm not going to give a speech between now and November where I don't talk about her views on Iraq, gay marriage, illegal immigration, criminal justice, drug policy, free trade, and so much more.
- What do you have to say in response to allegations that your Trump University used a number of unethical practices?I will apologize about this whole mess. And I'll ask where Clinton's apology is for the email server, the war in Iraq, the dead ambassador in Benghazi, and so many other issues of importance.
- Should Mitt Romney be given a speaking slot at the Republican Convention this year, given the tension between you two?If Romney is willing to endorse me and give a speech supporting me, we can let him into the convention hall.
- To what extent will you make opposition to current trade agreements a part of your speeches and campaign?Bill and Hillary Clinton have thrown millions of American jobs away. And also, a lot of these were jobs that African-Americans could be doing right now, which is why unemployment is so terrible in that community.
- Do you still hold a pro-life position on abortion? What do you have to say about previous incarnations of your views on that subject?I think we can do everything we can to discourage abortion. But I'd say it depends ... if we're talking about making abortion illegal then that's a different story. You can be pro-life without saying it should be illegal.
- What do you have to say to conservatives who doubt your commitment to their cause in this election? Do you have any grand gestures to make?What grand gesture? I'll just remind them that Hillary Clinton is going to be President if I lose.
- Many accuse your heated rhetoric of fueling violence at your rallies, which have become known for their protestors and altercations. What are your thoughts?You know, I said a few things at the beginning of 2016 for rhetorical effect, and I didn't mean for so many people to take them literally. I should have known that the press would be looking for any excuse to discredit an anti-establishment candidate who doesn't take money from Washington lobbyists.
- In the wake of your nomination, a number of prominent anti-Trump Republicans are organizing to cast votes for Libertarian Gary Johnson as a protest, with an emphasis on the Western states. What are your thoughts?My conservative credentials are beyond all question. It's really just sour grapes, and not accepting the will of the Republican voters in the primaries which is driving this.
- Do you plan to participate in the traditional three debates, between yourself and Hillary Clinton?Winning a nationally televised debate with Hillary Clinton will be the greatest experience of my life.
- What was your rationale behind selecting Chris Christie as your running mate?Chris Christie has walked the walk as Governor of New Jersey. I'm going to work with the best people as President.
- While giving a speech today, Hillary Clinton suddenly stopped speaking and appeared to briefly faint. A Secret Service agent supported her, and she came to and quickly finished the speech. Do you have any comment?I'm amazed that Clinton has even been allowed to run. But you know, she's had health issues in the past. It's a huge risk to elect her this fall.
- What is your opinion of Barack Obama's performance as President?I'm proud that we were able to elect an African-American as President in this country. I really am. But we need to focus on the future now, and not on what may have gone right or wrong the last few years.
- Do you support any type of comprehensive immigration reform, and if so, to what extent?I'm not opposed to comprehensive immigration reform. We just need to build a wall first, and deport the people who have no right to be in the United States.
- Do you support the practice of fracking? What is your overall view on energy policy?I love fracking. We need to do anything we can to support it.
- What is your position on the European Union? Do you believe that countries such as the United Kingdom should exit the Union, given the current problems?The European Union has been a complete disaster, and I can't blame any country, especially the United Kingdom, that would want out.
- What is your take on the Black Lives Matter movement?I support African-Americans in this country and I oppose police brutality. But these activists are a different story. There have been some very hateful things said, and they are tied to a number of riots that we've seen.
- What measures should be taken to make college more affordable?We need a more balanced trade situation, so that we have jobs available to people at all levels of society. We've really done a disservice to the white and African-American working class over the past twenty years.
- To what extent will you connect the dots between the Clintons' support of free trade and tough sentencing, and the huge unemployment in the black community?We're going to be putting out 2-3 tweets a day about how the Clintons have failed the black community on trade and immigration and criminal justice. We have an opening to do much better than Romney or McCain did with this group.
- Are there any personal attacks you would like to throw at Bill and Hillary Clinton over the next few months?Any story we can get, let's throw it out there. We're going to go with the tactics that have gotten us this far.
