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?I'm the best thing that's happened to CNN since the Gulf War. If I stop tweeting for a couple of weeks, they'll run a story about me every hour asking why!
- What was your rationale behind selecting Sarah Palin as your running mate?The sexist liberal media continues to blame this phenomenal woman for lazy John McCain's implosion in 2008. When I win this election, the failing New York Times will see just how wrong they've been!
- 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 have the utmost respect for James Comey and our terrific agents in the FBI. It seems like Hillary may have gotten lucky on this one.
- 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?Evan who? Have you seen this guy? I'm not too worried!
- 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?Some people under me put this scheme together, and when I found out, I fired them. It's as simple as that. This whole thing is the media trying to set up a false equivalency between myself and Crooked Hillary.
- 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 decision to set up a private email server in her home, while Secretary of State?With adversaries out there like China, Iran, Russia, North Korea, and others -- there are even people just doing weird things in their basement sometimes. She really should have been more careful.
- 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?There's a terrific video out there -- have you seen it? It's just Hillary Clinton being on both sides of every issue for almost ten minutes. And remember when we thought John Kerry was a flip-flopper?
- 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?This is the guy who lost in 2012. He was a loser. And then he gave speeches against me from the beginning. I mean, is this really the kind of guy we want at our convention?
- To what extent will you make opposition to current trade agreements a part of your speeches and campaign?I love free trade. This is another case where the media has taken a couple of sentences in a three-hour speech and made up a totally phony story. All I am saying is we've got to look out for America first in these trade deals.
- Many accuse your heated rhetoric of fueling violence at your rallies, which have become known for their protestors and altercations. What are your thoughts?I barely said a word. Now if the Democrats and their friends in the media want to rig this election with fake polls and massive voter fraud, they will see what it looks like when someone incites violence.
- 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.
- 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.
- How do you plan to address Obamacare as you campaign?We need to be talking more about a massive infrastructure bill, and putting our factory workers and our coal miners back to work.
- 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?It's not often that I feel shame. People who know me can agree. But I am very sorry for the way I acted in this situation, and we can't allow one ill-advised conversation to derail the entire future of the United States.
- 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?If it's really true that Russia collaborated to release this information about Hillary Clinton's private speeches to Goldman Sachs, then I totally disavow and denounce these illegal leaks.
- 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?I am preparing a severe criticism of Russia as we speak, a very very strong criticism I think you'll agree. For seeking to divide us as a nation by releasing this information about Hillary Clinton and her political tricks.
- 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?I don't want to speculate on what kind of incriminating new evidence might be in these emails. I just want to focus on our Make America Great Again agenda during the closing stretch of this election.
- Where will you spend the final day of your campaign?Let's not complicate this too much. The election pivots around Pennsylvania -- we're going to spend the morning in Pittsburgh and the evening in Scranton.
- Some advisors are privately alarmed at the long, meandering, and aggressive stump speeches that Sarah Palin is giving. Do you have any thoughts about reining her in?It's really a ludicrous thing. You have the same people who led John McCain and Mitt Romney to defeat. And now they've given me the same terrible advice for months. We're not gonna change a thing.
