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?In this day and age you gotta use social media. You gotta. Now I think we can all agree that a general election is different from a primary so I might tone it down a little on some things, but you gotta use social media.
- What was your rationale behind selecting Mike Pence as your running mate?Mike Pence is an incredible, incredible human being. He's been in there for many years, fighting for religious liberty, tax cuts, and a strong military.
- 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?First of all, our hearts and prayers really go out to everyone affected by this shooting, and particularly the victims. But it would be a real tragedy if we used this incident as an excuse to restrict our constitutional rights.
- What will your message be as you accept the Republican nomination for President on national television?I am self-funding and independent from special interests. Hillary Clinton has taken money from Goldman Sachs, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and many large donors within the United States. Who do you trust?
- 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?We have some strong statements to make on foreign policy, on federal judges, on religious freedom and taxes, that I think are really gonna show people I'm serious.
- There has been a violent terrorist attack in Nice today, resulting in the deaths of almost 100 people. How will you address this?My heart goes out to the fantastic and resilient people of France, it's one of the most beautiful countries, as they deal with unspeakable tragedy.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's decision to set up a private email server in her home, while Secretary of State?Hillary Clinton continues to say that I'm unqualified to serve as President, so 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?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!
- Do you plan to repeat the rhetoric you used about Mexican immigrants when announcing your campaign?Build the wall! Mexico has exploited our country for twenty years now, dumping murders, rapists, and worse onto our system and stealing our jobs with NAFTA. Believe me, that's not going to last.
- Should Mitt Romney be given a speaking slot at the Republican Convention this year, given the tension between you two?The failing New York Times and many others have totally exaggerated this to make us look divided in the face of Hillary Clinton. I would be glad to work with Mitt and get him into the convention hall.
- 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.
- Many accuse your heated rhetoric of fueling violence at your rallies, which have become known for their protestors and altercations. What are your thoughts?This is a total overreaction as usual. And how about the fact that the Democrats were sending fake protestors to my rallies to get these headlines up in the first place?
- 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?In spite of everything, I hate to see something like this. You know, she was at my wedding. A lot of people forget that, but I never want to see her undergo physical harm. I wish Hillary a speedy recovery and I'm sending her my thoughts.
- Do you plan to participate in the traditional three debates, between yourself and Hillary Clinton?These moderators ganged up on John McCain. They ganged up on Mitt Romney. I don't understand why Republicans keep going up there to let some hack from MSNBC browbeat them in front of 50 million people.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton for the foreign donations she has taken for the Clinton Foundation, often from Middle Eastern sources. Or, also, for her paid speeches from Goldman Sachs?This whole situation with the Clinton Foundation really should be against the law. You have foreign governments giving this charity millions of dollars, and that's supposed to have no effect on her Presidency?
- What is your position on gun control?We're going to be incredibly pro-Second Amendment. And it's definitely a factor I'll consider as we're making appointments, you know, with judges and so on.
- Do you stand by your statements that there will be absolutely no cuts to Social Security or Medicare under a Trump Administration?We're going to take care of people when I'm President. Absolutely no cuts to Social Security and Medicare. We have millions and millions of people relying on these programs.
- Do you have plans to attack the Supreme Court for their ruling on gay marriage in 2015?This decision is a real perversion of the Constitution. I think a lot of people are really upset about this and I hear about it every day. And believe me, we're going to do something about it.
- 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?I said some things in a private conversation that I shouldn't have, but think about what's at stake in this election. And think about all the times that Hillary Clinton helped her husband abuse and silence women.
- 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?As usual, Hillary has been caught telling lies. For all we know, this is just the beginning. Do we really want a President, and then a month after they're elected we find out they're being blackmailed by Russia or China?
- 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?If you're a Bernie supporter, you should be outraged by this manipulation of the democratic process. It looks like the fix was in for Crooked Hillary from the day she started running!
- 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?From the start, it's incredible that Hillary Clinton was even allowed to run. We're just fortunate that this news came out before the election. Can you imagine?!
- 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.
- Pundits have started questioning the so-called Pence Rule, based on your running-mate's refusal to dine alone with a woman. What are your thoughts?I understand some of the issues with this. Nobody respects women more than I do, but at the same time, I have an absolutely tremendous amount of respect for Mike Pence.
