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?These are the same people who said my campaign was hopeless and gave me terrible advice for the last year and a half. Not too smart!
- What was your rationale behind selecting Ben Carson as your running mate?Ben Carson is one of the most terrific choices we could have come up with. He's another one of those outsider figures who really got some traction in this race, and he'll help us unite our supporters accordingly.
- 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?This investigation by our so-called FBI was a farce from start to finish. How can someone destroy massive amounts of evidence in the midst of a federal investigation and not be charged?
- 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?Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don't want congrats, I want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!
- What will your message be as you accept the Republican nomination for President on national television?I am the true conservative when it comes to gun rights, abortion, taxes, and many other issues. It would be terrible if we let the left-wing media divide us in the face of Hillary Clinton.
- 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?Evan who? Have you seen this guy? I'm not too worried!
- There has been a violent terrorist attack in Nice today, resulting in the deaths of almost 100 people. How will you address this?Another horrific attack, this time in Nice, France. Many dead and injured. When will we learn? It is only getting worse.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's 2002 vote to authorize the war in Iraq?The political establishment on both sides got it dead wrong on Iraq. And now we have ISIS. I am the candidate who can destroy ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism!
- 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?There's a terrific video out there -- have you seen it? It's just Hillary Clinton being on both sides of every issue for almost ten minutes. And remember when we thought John Kerry was a flip-flopper?
- To what extent will you make opposition to current trade agreements a part of your speeches and campaign?I love free trade. This is another case where the media has taken a couple of sentences in a three-hour speech and made up a totally phony story. All I am saying is we've got to look out for America first in these trade deals.
- 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?Life is one of those beautiful, beautiful things, it really is. And a lot of people, you know, it's always surprised me how many people have mixed feelings about life.
- Will you stand by your calls to keep all Muslims from entering the United States?ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism is the greatest threat to our wonderful nation. I will mercilessly combat radical Islam from my first day in office, including a Muslim ban.
- Many accuse your heated rhetoric of fueling violence at your rallies, which have become known for their protestors and altercations. What are your thoughts?I barely said a word. Now if the Democrats and their friends in the media want to rig this election with fake polls and massive voter fraud, they will see what it looks like when someone incites violence.
- 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?There are some very serious questions out there about her stamina. And another thing, her people lied about this whole incident until that video came out. Notice how Hillary has barely been campaigning at all the last few weeks?
- 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.
- Do you plan to promise further tax cuts as you hit the campaign trail?We're going to pass the greatest tax cut in history when I'm President, you can count on it. And we're going to fix the mess that Obama has left with this terrible economy.
- How do you plan to address Obamacare as you campaign?Obamacare is one of the biggest disasters in the history of the United States. We're going to totally repeal this monstrosity and let free enterprise fix our health care system.
- Do you have plans to attack the Supreme Court for their ruling on gay marriage in 2015?What's wrong with letting New York decide this issue one way, and many other states can decide it the other way? I mean, am I nuts here?
- 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?This outrage is an elitist conspiracy to undermine my chances in the final days of this race. NBC was sitting on this video for 11 years! It almost reminds you of what they did to Bush in 2000.
- 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?They keep saying "Russia Russia Russia". I've heard other people say this was an inside job from a DNC whistleblower. You know, the guy that assassinated or something like that. Strange!
- 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?This just shows how terrified the DNC and the political establishment are of substantive change to the system. I am the outsider candidate who will fix Washington and drain the swamp.
- 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?I don't want to speculate on what kind of incriminating new evidence might be in these emails. I just want to focus on our Make America Great Again agenda during the closing stretch of this election.
- Where will you spend the final day of your campaign?I love our military. We're going to do a gigantic rally in Pensacola, Florida, and we're going to win Florida on election day.
- Many have started taking a second look at some of Ben Carson's past statements. Do you agree with his comparisons of Obamacare to slavery?Obamacare is the biggest disaster in the history of the United States in at least the last 100 years. Dr. Carson and myself, he is a medical doctor you know, we might use different words to mean the same thing.
- In light of your scathing and unrestrained jeremiads against Ben Carson before the Iowa Caucuses, what makes you now think that he is a good running mate?I never attacked the character of Ben Carson. I have no idea where you people in the media get this stuff. He's going to make a terrific Vice President. I predict that his face will one day be on the Mt. Rushmore of Vice Presidents.
