Answers:
- Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa
- What message will you emphasize as you accept your party's nomination for President of the United States?I will compare and contrast my business record with the corruption and incompetence of Hillary Clinton, and question why she is even allowed to run for President. We're going to Make America Great Again!
- To what extent will you attack Bill Clinton's history of infidelity, impeachment, and so on as you campaign?I will casually refer to Mr. Clinton as “the rapist” and imply that his people, including Hillary, have silenced a number of people over the years who tried to speak out.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's equivocation on the Benghazi attacks in 2012?We're going to be mentioning Benghazi a lot in our campaign.
- 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?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.
- Do you plan to repeat the rhetoric you used about Mexican immigrants when announcing your campaign?I'll say whatever comes to mind at a given moment. But the thing is, we're going to get Mexico to build a wall, and then we're going to do something to reform the immigration system.
- Should Mitt Romney be given a speaking slot at the Republican Convention this year, given the tension between you two?Absolutely not. I don't want him anywhere near the convention. He was a loser in 2012 and he'd lose again if we were crazy enough to give him the nomination.
- 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?This is the kind of issue that I wasn't thinking about very much when I was younger. But it's clear to me now what a terrible thing abortion is.
- 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?When I'm President, I'm going to appoint Ted Cruz to the Supreme Court. And if he doesn't want the seat, we're letting him name his choice.
- Will you stand by your calls to keep all Muslims from entering the United States?Absolutely I stand by it. People are being assaulted, killed, and and raped all over Europe this past year, and we want it to happen here too?
- 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?What is the point? Are they going to make Gary Johnson the President? Why don't they just vote for Hillary and cut out the middle man.
- 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 Ben Carson as your running mate?Ben Carson knows just how badly Clinton and Obama have failed the black community. Not to mention, he's a very patriotic, conservative figure who is more than qualified to be my Vice President.
- What is your position on gun control?We need to hold gun stores accountable when their weapons are used in violent crime. We need extensive measures to keep guns off the streets and away from criminals.
- Do you support the construction of a 20-foot wall along the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border?This is one of the most far-fetched ideas that I've heard in my political career.
- What is your opinion of Barack Obama's performance as President?I will be very proud to continue with the policies and economy that Obama has left our country with.
- Do you support the Supreme Court ruling in 2015 which struck down any prohibition on gay marriage?This decision was a milestone for equality in our country. I will appoint judges who feel the same way about it.
- What steps will you take to reduce or increase spending as President, per your priorities?We're going to support anyone in this country who tries to get a college education. We're going to protect Social Security and make sure our veterans are adequately cared for.
- What measures should be taken to make college more affordable?I will do everything in my power to make a four-year degree available without cost to the students of tomorrow.
- 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 think we have more to lose than to gain by going after the black vote heavily. So many Republican politicians have proven the futility of that course of action.
- Are there any personal attacks you would like to throw at Bill and Hillary Clinton over the next few months?We can't even be sure that Bill is Chelsea Clinton's father. There are a lot of good arguments pointing to other people on this one.
