- To what extent will you attack Bill Clinton's history of infidelity, impeachment, and so on as you campaign?I am really hoping to keep this campaign focused on the issues, but if Hillary wants to use this "war on women" nonsense, I reserve the right to call her out on it, along with Bill.
- 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.

- 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".

I am the outsider candidate who will fix Washington and drain the swamp.
