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?This is a guy with a terrific record in state government, really terrific as Governor of Indiana. A wonderful Congressman you might have heard. And we need experience. Experience is very important.
- 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?Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don't want congrats, I want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!
- 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!
- There has been a violent terrorist attack in Nice today, resulting in the deaths of almost 100 people. How will you address this?As President, in spite of what people in the liberal media say, I will work very closely with our foreign allies on issues of importance. Together we can unite against and defeat radical Islamic terror.
- To what extent will you attack Hillary Clinton's decision to set up a private email server in her home, while Secretary of State?The FBI really covered for Crooked Hillary on this one. We will be asking, "Where's the indictment?" every day in my speeches, and on social media.
- 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 Hillary Clinton for her changing views on gay marriage, criminal justice, illegal immigration, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or other issues?No matter what she says sometimes, we know Hillary Clinton is weak on national security, supports open borders, radical social change, and probably gun confiscation while we're at it. I don't know how the American people can trust her.
- Do you plan to repeat the rhetoric you used about Mexican immigrants when announcing your campaign?I was using "rapists" as a figure of speech. But I will, you know, remind people that Hillary Clinton was saying she was "adamantly against illegal immigrants". What made her change her mind?
- 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'm probably the most pro-life individual, maybe ever. And you know, one of the big issues in this election is the judges. Very important issue.
- Many accuse your heated rhetoric of fueling violence at your rallies, which have become known for their protestors and altercations. What are your thoughts?You know, this is hard for me. Really it's not something I usually do, I'm very against it. But this one time, I am willing to apologize for what I said a couple of times. Emotions were heated, and I may have helped push a couple of individuals over the line.
- 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?Believe me, I can't wait to debate Hillary Clinton.
- What is your position on gun control?Read my lips. There will be no new anti-gun legislation when I am President.
- 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're going to repeal and replace Obamacare under my Administration. And under my new plan, people are going to get unbelievable health care like they've never seen before.
- 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?They keep saying "Russia Russia Russia". I've heard other people say this was an inside job from a DNC whistleblower. You know, the guy that assassinated or something like that. Strange!
- 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?This just shows how terrified the DNC and the political establishment are of substantive change to the system. I am the outsider candidate who will fix Washington and drain the swamp.
- 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.
- 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?Maybe if Bill Clinton and some other people I can think of would have followed this common-sense recommendation, their lives would have been much simpler.
