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 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?We will be asking, “Where's the indictment?!” every day in my speeches, and on social media.
- 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?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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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, you suddenly stopped speaking and appeared to briefly faint. A Secret Service agent supported you, and you came to and quickly finished the speech. Do you have any comment?I'm out here thirteen hours a day. These media insinuations and so on... they are very bad people.
- What do you make of recent news that Bernie Sanders has declined to endorse a candidate for President?He's probably concerned about associating his name with a felon. I would be too.
- In a hearing today, a New York judge has set the trial date for the Trump University lawsuit to August of this year. Do you have any comment?This entire case is a farce from start to finish. It's a minor civil case.
- What actions would you take in Syria to help stabilize the situation there, and to combat ISIS?The idea that there is a moderate opposition in Syria is fantasy. Every side is terrible, and we'd be best served to pull back from the entire fray and let it play out.
- Do you support the recent nuclear deal between the United States and Iran?This deal is a completely asinine joke. We still owe Iran $150 billion if we change our mind. We just give them the money.
- 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.
- How concerned are you about the $17 trillion debt that the United States currently owes?This is absolutely obscene, and it's not going to keep growing when I am President.
- 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.
- 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?!
