Answers:
- Your use of Twitter has garnered outsized attention in your run for the Republican nomination, but some advisors are leery of your erratic tendnecies on that site. How will you proceed?I'm the best thing that's happened to CNN since the Gulf War. If I stop tweeting for a couple of weeks, they'll run a story about me every hour asking why!
- What was your rationale behind selecting Mike Pence as your running mate?This is a guy with a terrific record in state government, really terrific as Governor of Indiana. A wonderful Congressman you might have heard. And we need experience. Experience is very important.
- The FBI director has handed down a severe criticism of Clinton's email practices while Secretary of State, though he declined to recommend any indictments. Do you have any comment?I'm deeply concerned about this whole episode. We don't know yet whether there was a crime or not, but you can be sure that a Trump Administration will be looking into this some more.
- There was a mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando overnight, perpetrated by a Muslim, resulting in 50 people killed. What is your reaction?What happened in Orlando last right was a terrible tragedy, and our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected.
- What will your message be as you accept the Republican nomination for President on national television?I am self-funding and independent from special interests. Hillary Clinton has taken money from Goldman Sachs, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and many large donors within the United States. Who do you trust?
- In the wake of your nomination, a few anti-Trump conservatives are organizing to cast votes for Evan McMullin as a protest, with an emphasis on the Western states. What are your thoughts?Hillary Clinton deleted 32,000 emails under House Subpoena, along with many other crimes. When people see that I'm the only one who can defeat Crooked Hillary, they will reject this nonsense.
- There has been a violent terrorist attack in Nice today, resulting in the deaths of almost 100 people. How will you address this?As President, in spite of what people in the liberal media say, I will work very closely with our foreign allies on issues of importance. Together we can unite against and defeat radical Islamic terror.
- 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?No matter what she says now, we know Hillary Clinton was a hawk on Iraq, she opposed gay marriage, she loved NAFTA and China, she was anti-illegal immigration, and much more. I don't know how her supporters can trust her.
- Are there any personal attacks you would like to throw at Bill and Hillary Clinton over the next few months?All of the above? This election is a war for the soul of America. There's no attack that I won't make against the Clintons.
- Do you plan to repeat the rhetoric you used about Mexican immigrants when announcing your campaign?We almost had immigration reform. A beautiful deal, except that some radical Democrats wouldn't agree to the border security. But I think they'll see the light once they lose this fall.
- To what extent will you make opposition to current trade agreements a part of your speeches and campaign?You better believe that TPP is dead, from day one of my Presidency. And we're going to be looking into some of these other deals too and we'll be very careful about the trade deficit.
- Will you stand by your calls to keep all Muslims from entering the United States?The media totally leaves out the part where I said the ban should be temporary, until we can figure out what's going on. But they want to paint me as some kind of bigot to further their liberal agenda for America.
- While attending a 9/11 memorial event today, Hillary Clinton was caught on video going limp and being carried into a van, apparently for medical attention. Do you have any comment?The most important thing right now is to remember our heroes from 9/11. I will be making a number of campaign stops these next few days where I mention our veterans, and our other heroes.
- Do you plan to participate in the traditional three debates, between yourself and Hillary Clinton?Believe me, I can't wait to debate Hillary Clinton.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton for the foreign donations she has taken for the Clinton Foundation, often from Middle Eastern sources. Or, also, for her paid speeches from Goldman Sachs?The Russians gave her $2 million. The Saudis, the Arabs, they gave her a lot. Millions from the Bank of Switzerland and Deutsche Bank. It's all about the charity, right?
- Do you plan to promise further tax cuts as you hit the campaign trail?I want to see us pass a gigantic tax cut for the middle and the working class. That's really where the focus should be -- we've got to get everyday Americans spending again to make this country great.
- Do you stand by your statements that there will be absolutely no cuts to Social Security or Medicare under a Trump Administration?We're going to take care of people when I'm President. Absolutely no cuts to Social Security and Medicare. We have millions and millions of people relying on these programs.
- How do you plan to address Obamacare as you campaign?We need to be talking more about a massive infrastructure bill, and putting our factory workers and our coal miners back to work.
- A video surfaced of you describing how you tried to seduce a married woman, and how you can generally kiss women or "grab them by the pussy". 14 women have also stepped forward to accuse you of assault. What is your response?I said some things in a private conversation that I shouldn't have, but think about what's at stake in this election. And think about all the times that Hillary Clinton helped her husband abuse and silence women.
- A leaked transcript from Wikileaks shows Hillary Clinton saying in a closed-door speech at Goldman Sachs that she is "center-left, center-right" and that she supports "open trade and open borders". How do you respond?No wonder she was working so hard to cheat Bernie Sanders out of the nomination. She's the Goldman Sachs candidate, folks, plain and simple.
- A leaked transcript from Wikileaks shows the Clinton campaign working with members of the DNC to collaborate against the campaign of Bernie Sanders in subtle but definite ways, such as the sharing of some debate questions before a primary debate. How do you respond?If you're a Bernie supporter, you should be outraged by this manipulation of the democratic process. It looks like the fix was in for Crooked Hillary from the day she started running!
- James Comey, FBI Director, has made a late announcement that additional emails have surfaced in Hillary Clinton's case, thanks to an investigation into Anthony Weiner. What are your thoughts?From the start, it's incredible that Hillary Clinton was even allowed to run. We're just fortunate that this news came out before the election. Can you imagine?!
- Where will you spend the final day of your campaign?The pundits might say this is crazy, but we're going to visit Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. I think I can do four, maybe five rallies in one day. Maybe six.
- Pundits have started questioning the so-called Pence Rule, based on your running-mate's refusal to dine alone with a woman. What are your thoughts?I understand some of the issues with this. Nobody respects women more than I do, but at the same time, I have an absolutely tremendous amount of respect for Mike Pence.
