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?These are the same people who said my campaign was hopeless and gave me terrible advice for the last year and a half. Not too smart!
- What was your rationale behind selecting Ben Carson as your running mate?Ben Carson is one of the most terrific choices we could have come up with. He's another one of those outsider figures who really got some traction in this race, and he'll help us unite our supporters accordingly.
- 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?I'm deeply concerned about this whole episode. We don't know yet whether there was a crime or not, but you can be sure that a Trump Administration will be looking into this some more.
- 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?What happened in Orlando last right was a terrible tragedy, and our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected.
- What will your message be as you accept the Republican nomination for President on national television?I am the true conservative when it comes to gun rights, abortion, taxes, and many other issues. It would be terrible if we let the left-wing media divide us in the face of Hillary Clinton.
- 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.
- In a hearing today, a New York judge has set the trial date for the Trump University lawsuit to December of this year. Do you have any comment?Where is Hillary Clinton's apology for the email server, the war in Iraq, the dead ambassador in Benghazi, the Goldman Sachs speeches, and so many other issues of importance?
- 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 equivocation on the Benghazi attacks in 2012?There have been some interesting investigations into this that the American people should look into. But my focus now, we have the economy, China, and so many of these other issues.
- 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 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.
- To what extent will you make opposition to current trade agreements a part of your speeches and campaign?We've got a lot of issues to focus on and galvanize people. It seems like people respond a lot better, to be honest, they respond better when I'm talking about the corruption of the Clintons. About guns, you know, that kind of thing.
- 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 disagree with Roe v. Wade, deeply to my core. Now there might be a couple of exceptions we can talk about, but I am a very pro-life person.
- Will you stand by your calls to keep all Muslims from entering the United States?ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism is the greatest threat to our wonderful nation. I will mercilessly combat radical Islam from my first day in office, including a Muslim ban.
- 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?There are some very serious questions out there about her stamina. And another thing, her people lied about this whole incident until that video came out. Notice how Hillary has barely been campaigning at all the last few weeks?
- 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.
- 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 plan to promise further tax cuts as you hit the campaign trail?I want to see us pass a gigantic tax cut for the middle and the working class. That's really where the focus should be -- we've got to get everyday Americans spending again to make this country great.
- 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?We're going to do some tremendous rallies in Nevada and Colorado. Some truly unbelievable rallies.
- Many have started taking a second look at some of Ben Carson's past statements. Do you agree with his comparisons of Obamacare to slavery?Whatever you want to say about Obamacare, it won't be around for long when I'm President, believe me. We're going to repeal and replace the Obamacare disaster so fast, it's going to be truly something.
- In light of your scathing and unrestrained jeremiads against Ben Carson before the Iowa Caucuses, what makes you now think that he is a good running mate?I never attacked the character of Ben Carson. I have no idea where you people in the media get this stuff. He's going to make a terrific Vice President. I predict that his face will one day be on the Mt. Rushmore of Vice Presidents.
