Answers:
- Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa
- To what extent will you attack Bill Clinton's history of infidelity, impeachment, and so on as you campaign?We need to elevate the tone of this campaign. I'm not going to continue digging into these old issues.
- 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?The American people are sick and tired of hearing about Clinton's emails.
- 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?We've both changed our opinions about things in the past. Let's be judicious about the attacks that we make.
- What do you have to say in response to allegations that your Trump University used a number of unethical practices?It's a minor civil case, pursued by a few disgruntled people for political purposes. Most people were very satisfied with Trump University.
- Do you plan to repeat the rhetoric you used about Mexican immigrants when announcing your campaign?I probably won't use the word “rapist” again. But I will, you know, remind people that Hillary Clinton was saying she was “adamantly against illegal immigrants”. What made her change her mind?
- 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?This has been misunderstood from the first day. All I'm calling for is for us to not send unqualified hacks to negotiate our trade deals. I love trade.
- 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.
- Will you stand by your calls to keep all Muslims from entering the United States?I never meant that I was going to keep all Muslims from entering the United States. All I meant, was that we can't have people coming here with possible ties to ISIS until we figure out what's going on.
- 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?At this point, it's hard to have any faith that the media will moderate these debates in an impartial manner. I will buy a half hour of time on every major network and make my case directly to the people.
- 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.
- Protests at a Trump rally in Oakland, California degenerated into a riot last night, with extensive property damage and at least one death. What are your thoughts?I've reluctantly decided to stop hosting large public rallies until we can figure out what's going on.
- What is your position on the abortion issue?I'm a pro-life candidate. Very pro-life. I think only if a woman is in serious danger should she be able to receive an abortion.
- Do you support the Supreme Court ruling in 2015 which struck down any prohibition on gay marriage?I can't support it. You know, once upon a time we actually had a legislature in this country which debated the laws and made these kinds of decisions.
- How concerned are you about the $17 trillion debt that the United States currently owes?Barack Obama has reduced the deficit of this country by over half since his first year in office, and I will do anything I can to continue his policies.
- What steps will you take to reduce or increase spending as President, per your priorities?We're going to crack down on waste and fraud. There's a terrible amount of bad stuff going on out there.
- What is your take on the Black Lives Matter movement?I believe that black lives matter. I fully support this group in their objectives. They are the civil rights group of our time.
- What measures should be taken to make college more affordable?College administrators are skimming an unbelievable amount of money off of the federal government, and they're using student aid to drive up tuition. It's a terrible thing, really.
- 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?I haven't really thought about it. Let's just stick to what we're doing.
- Are there any personal attacks you would like to throw at Bill and Hillary Clinton over the next few months?Is it any coincidence that the Clintons had Chelsea during the roughest part of Bill's political career? The people of Arkansas were beginning to figure out that there's no love in Clinton relationship. Just a naked ambition for power, that's all.
- What message will you emphasize as you accept your party's nomination for President of the United States?I will emphasize that I am self-funding and independent from special interests. Then I will document to the last detail who Hillary Clinton has taken money from, and what she did for them. Can you say Goldman Sachs?!
