Answers:
- What message will you emphasize as you accept your party's nomination for President of the United States?I will promise to the convention floor that I am a true conservative on gun rights, abortion, taxes, and many other issues. It would be terrible if we let these issues divide us in the face of Hillary Clinton.
- 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?Whenever Ms. Clinton implies that I'm unqualified to serve as President, we will immediately ask what was going on her brain when she installed this server?
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's 2002 vote to authorize the war in Iraq?Whenever Ms. Clinton implies that I'm unqualified to serve as President, we will immediately ask what was going on her brain when she voted for the war in Iraq?
- 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?This is definitely going to be part of our campaign, along with many other things.
- 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?Bill and Hillary Clinton have thrown millions of American jobs away. And also, a lot of these were jobs that African-Americans could be doing right now, which is why unemployment is so terrible in that community.
- 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.
- 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.
- What actions would you take in Syria to help stabilize the situation there, and to combat ISIS?We need to send American troops to Syria to eradicate ISIS once and for all.
- 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 fully support gay marriage, but I'd like to see every state make this decision for itself.
- Do you support the recent reopening of relations with Cuba?I'm glad that we have reached out to Cuba, but I would like to have seen a little more insistence that they liberalize their country first.
- What are the next steps that the United States should take to combat global warming?We need to encourage a healthy economy in general, so that green businesses can obtain the investment that they need to innovate.
- What is your position on the European Union? Do you believe that countries such as the United Kingdom should exit the Union, given the current problems?We've all seen the issues with the European Union, and it obviously hasn't been perfect. But I'd hope that any country consider things very carefully before they decided to leave.
- Do you have plans to take in more than the current level of 10,000 refugees per annum from the conflict in Syria?You know, Steve Jobs was a descendent of Syrian refugees. We're screening these people very carefully and we can certainly afford to take in more than 10,000.
- Where will you spend your final day of the campaign?Florida
- 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.
- There has been a coordinated, violent terrorist attack on London today, resulting in the death of at least 100 people. How will you address this?This is another case of radical Islamists attempting to destroy the values that we stand for. We have to admit that a huge part of Islam is at war with America and the western world, and we continue to have far too many people who are looking the other way.
- 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.
