    [–]Sup3rKyl3LA 2921 points2922 points2923 points  (120 children)
    Mr. Trump, you've been on record saying the "war on drugs" has failed. The "war on drugs" has cost the US hundreds of billons of dollars over decades. Building the wall is one way to stop the crossing of hard drugs into our country, but as some states have shown legalizing marijuana or medical marijuana has lead to tax and tourism revenue. Under a Trump administration, what will the federal stance be on recreational marijuana/medical marijuana and is there any possibility of legalization for much-needed revenue?
    [–]sub_redditsARMY 632 points633 points634 points  (46 children)
    I second this question.
    As a combat veteran, I have found marijuana to be extremely helpful for me when dealing with anxiety and depression from PTSD.
    I tried to get help from the VA but they weren't able to provide me with much care, other than putting me on anti-depressant drugs (which I did not want to take).

    He deleted them because this is a Trump AMA and not a Trump-Milo interview. All of Milo's questions were at the top, he deleted some so other peoples questions could get answered.
    EDIT: From the mods: "We agreed mods could only get one question - we really want the community to get their questions answered. We're relaying community questions containing the same topics to Mr.Trump to keep the questions - but so more people get an answer. Hope this makes sense, guys!"

    Mr. Trump,
    Reports estimate that 90% of US media is owned by 6 companies. The US mass media has fused into a gross alliance with big business and big government as this election has shown more than any other. The dishonest media is rigging our democracy with a radical agenda that divides Americans and causes nothing but sensationalism and hatred at the expense of the USA. They are killing our country for ratings and profit, with impunity.
    How will you, as president, tackle this protected class of media elites without stepping on the first amendment rights of average Americans?

      Mr. Trump, on behalf of /r/asktrumpsupporters we would like to ask you the following questions:
      Question 1: We firmly believe Hillary will try and steal this election through vote fraud, especially given recent events. What is your campaign doing to ensure that we have a fair election?
      Question 2: What role should NASA play in helping to Make America Great Again?
      Question 3: How do you feel about WikiLeaks? Does it change your opinion on Snowden?
      Question 4: What is your opinion on Net Neutrality?
      Question 5: Has your campaign ever gotten any ideas from the_donald?
      Thank you for taking the time to join us today and we look forward to continuing to Make America Great Again with you.
      Sincerely,

        1 - Voter fraud is always a serious concern and authorities must be vigilant from keeping those from voting that are not authorized to do so.
        2 - Honestly I think NASA is wonderful! America has always led the world in space exploration.
        [–]PorkSquared 61 points62 points63 points  (6 children)
        Hi Mr. Trump!
        2 - Honestly I think NASA is wonderful! America has always led the world in space exploration.
        Can you elaborate a bit on this? It would be great to have a POTUS that actually pushes NASA and America's private space companies to be great(er) again. China is quickly catching up, and will eventually overtake America in space if we don't act.

          Dear Mr. Trump,
          My name is William, and I am a Nuclear Engineering student at North Carolina State University. The Democrats have treated nuclear power horribly. Nuclear power struggles to compete in the market because of unfair subsidies placed on solar and wind energy by the Democrats. Many of our plants have been shut down, and many more are expected to close in the next 20 years. The Democrats have opposed the construction of new plants, which would create many high paying jobs in construction and engineering, because they believe nuclear power is not safe, even though there have been no deaths from over 60 years of nuclear power in the United States. I want to be a part of America’s nuclear future, but I am worried about finding a stable job with all these obstacles.
          Do you support American nuclear power? What are your thoughts?
          [–]NatejitsuNC 38 points39 points40 points  (5 children)

          [–]shitpostsonthetoilet 155 points156 points157 points  (6 children)
          Piggybacking off of this (very important) question, I am a PhD candidate in Bioengineering. In my line of work, I frequently encounter situations where federal regulations limit scientific advancement. For example, the Freestyle Libre is a new glucose monitoring system for people with diabetes that makes several important advances over existing systems. The Libre is built by an American company, designed by American engineers, and legal to purchase pretty much anywhere in the world besides America.
          I've noticed that our healthcare plan calls for reducing barriers to market entry such as those faced by the Libre.
          Could you expand a little on what exactly you would change to bring America back to the forefront of medical science?

          Mr. Trump,
          Everyday, when I leave my Manhattan office, I stop to have a friendly talk with our front desk/security manager, Larry. Larry is an African-American man in his early 50’s, a lifelong democrat, and of the true “salt of the earth” character that makes this city and, indeed, this country, great.
          For the past few months, Larry has talked almost exclusively about the election and routinely expressed fear and doubt about you as a candidate. Today, however, for the first time, Larry said that he “liked how Trump sounded today” and now thinks "this guy could win”.
          Mr. Trump, if you were to speak to Larry, a working class African-American man in his 50’s, what would you tell him as to why he should vote for you? I promise I'll pass it along to him tomorrow.
          Also, are we having the victory party in front of Trump Tower in November?
          Thanks, and MAGA!

            America has a proud tradition of stealing the most brilliant and talented people from countries around the world for ourselves. Albert Einstein, Wernher von Braun, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Melania Trump... the list goes on and on. In recent years, however, H-1B visa abuse has become rampant.
            A program meant bring truly exceptional talent to America has been twisted by globalist politicians and corporations, allowing low-cost, short term labor to steal jobs from everyday Americans and take everything they learn back to their home countries. Will you curb H-1B abuse and make sure visas are going to people who want to become American, stay American, and make America great?

            I have put forward a detailed plan for H-1B reform to protect American workers which can viewed on the immigration paper on my website. My plan is the exact opposite of Crooked Hillary Clinton.
            [–]TexSC 174 points175 points176 points  (11 children)
            Specifically this portion:
            Increase prevailing wage for H-1Bs. We graduate two times more Americans with STEM degrees each year than find STEM jobs, yet as much as two-thirds of entry-level hiring for IT jobs is accomplished through the H-1B program. More than half of H-1B visas are issued for the program's lowest allowable wage level, and more than eighty percent for its bottom two. Raising the prevailing wage paid to H-1Bs will force companies to give these coveted entry-level jobs to the existing domestic pool of unemployed native and immigrant workers in the U.S., instead of flying in cheaper workers from overseas. This will improve the number of black, Hispanic and female workers in Silicon Valley who have been passed over in favor of the H-1B program. Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities.
            Requirement to hire American workers first. Too many visas, like the H-1B, have no such requirement. In the year 2015, with 92 million Americans outside the workforce and incomes collapsing, we need companies to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed. Petitions for workers should be mailed to the unemployment office, not USCIS. "

            Mr. Trump, it's truly an honor.
            What are your thoughts on electronic voting machines and the potential for election fraud? It is well-known that the two major manufacturers of electronic voting machines in the U.S. —Dominion Voting and H.I.G. Capital—are supporters of Hillary Clinton and donate to the Clinton Foundation.
            I believe this represents a conflict of interest unprecedented in U.S. politics, and the only potential threat to your candidacy. Do you have plans to shine light on this issue for the rest of the country?

            During your rapid fire Press Q&A this morning, you mentioned the hundreds of days it's been since Hillary's last press conference.
            What do you think is/are the reason(s) for Hillary refusing to hold any press conferences for such a huge amount of time?
            follow up,
            Do you think Hillary will attempt to decrease the number of times she has to debate you like she did to Bernie during the Democratic Primary, or even avoid debating you altogether like she's avoided press conferences altogether this year?

            Crooked Hillary Clinton will not do press conferences because she cannot explain her illegally deleted 33,000 emails, or her disaster in Libya, or her role pushing TPP (which she would 100% approve if she got the chance), or her support for a 550% increase in Syrian refugees, etc.

            Mr. Trump,
            As a Police Officer and Iraq War Vet, I want to personally thank you for showing so much incredible support towards law enforcement officers and military personnel. It means a lot!
            My question: If (when) you’re elected to be the POTUS, what will you do about the Fraud, Waste and Abuse in the military? As a 10 year veteran of the armed forces, I can assure you that BILLIONS of tax payer dollars are wasted due to the unnecessary red tape and hoops the military must jump through to accomplish their mission(s). I’d rather see those billions be invested into our nation’s infrastructure! What will you do to ensure this happens?
            Bonus Question – I’ve emailed your campaign and my states Republic party representatives to figure out how to get involved in your campaign to turn my blue state red and I’ve received no response! Is there someone I can reach out to? I want to do everything I can to support you to ensure we can MAGA!
            Bonus Statement – Your children are very articulate and impressive speakers. I hope they consider getting involved in politics. They would represent the US very well. Extremely impressed by them.
            *edit - Hijacking all these upvotes to say THANK YOU to everyone who is showing Police Officers support in these devastating times right now. We LOVE you and we APPRECIATE you for being so wonderful towards us!
            [–]panty_hamsters 53 points54 points55 points  (9 children)

            Mr. Trump, as a self-employed young American, my health insurance costs have skyrocketed under Obamacare. Paying close to $300 a month with a $6,000 deductible is a challenge as I try and grow my business. What will you do as President to ensure that myself and others can not only enjoy the security of having health insurance, but also afford to keep it?
            [–]the-realDonaldTrump45[S] 1610 points1611 points1612 points  (269 children)
            One of the first things I will do is to repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare. I will put forward an amazing new plan, which will include many reforms, such as letting people buy insurance across state lines, increasing choice and competition, and bargaining for better, cheaper drug prices.

            Mr. Trump, as a veteran and former employee of the NSA, I find the revelations that the agency focused on American citizens to be appalling. When I served (‘98- ‘02), we were specifically instructed NOT to target Americans and if any were involved in our data collection, we needed to contact the appropriate agency (FBI/Local law) and abort our mission immediately. What are your thoughts on the policies set that "allowed" for Americans to be secretly monitored, and what steps will you take to ensure security without compromising the rights of the American public?

            Mr. Trump, My husband will leave for his 6th deployment early next year. We recently found out that they will deduct from his paycheck his BAS (Basic Allowance for Subsistence…$368 monthly). He will not get paid combat pay, his pay will be taxed. He will receive Family Separation Pay ($250 monthly).
            This means that my husband’s check will be $108 less monthly while being overseas, then it would be if he were back home, not missing our 15th wedding anniversary, our son’s 11th birthday, and countless other events. What are your plans to help rebuild the military so those that volunteer to keep this country safe can deploy knowing that their families aren’t having to worry about money or safety? I’m excited to see you on Friday in CS, CO! Army Wives for Trump! MAGA!
            [–]soulassssns 39 points40 points41 points  (5 children)
            Losing money on deployment? That sucks! I too lost BAS while deployed but since I am Navy other pays would kick in during deployment to offset it. I received Flight Deck pay (Navy Aviation rate on an Aircraft Carrier) FSA as well as Sea pay and of course tax free while in combat zones. So I would actually make more money while deployed.
            I have never heard of someone getting less money.

            Mr. Trump, I’m very excited to see you as our 45th President of the United States and I truly believe this will be the case. Your views, while strong, are what this country needs to steer us away from an otherwise bleak and ‘politically correct’ future.
            My question to you is: As President, how will you handle Edward Snowden? Do you still truly believe he’s a traitor to the American people or do you see how he’s been able to expose just how totalitarian our federal government treats our Citizens’ privacy?
            Thanks so much for doing this AMA with us today!

            Mr. Trump,
            I am a computer programmer and H1Bs are a near and dear issue to me. I initially started supporting you because you seemed to be the only candidate that actually care about this and understand that there is not a real shortage and that companies are abusing them to replace American workers for cheaper labor (I.E. Disney). You haven't spoken much about H1Bs recently and it was not part of your speech during the RNC. Could you share your plans on how to handle H1Bs and corporations that abuse them?
            Also, not a question but as a father of two young daughters I just wanted to thank you for your strong and reasonable position on immigration from countries compromised by terrorism. You give me hope for a safe America in their future.
            Thanks and lets MAGA!

            Hello Mr. Trump,
            I am currently an undergraduate college student. In recent years, free speech on college campuses have quickly become an issue. Political discourse is dominated by liberal-minded thinkers and colleges have become increasingly hostile towards right-leaning students like myself. We have seen this madness with the student protests in Mizzou and Yale last year. My concern is that we might be seeing the start of a disturbing political trend. Some of these students will be our future politicians and I’m afraid that our civil liberties will be compromised in the future for the sake of political correctness. My question to you is what can you do as president to help mitigate the growing polarization in our country, especially in environments like college campuses?

            Mr. Trump,
            I was born in the United States, have no criminal background whatsoever, and have no ties to any terrorist organizations. However, the US government still collects my texts, emails, call logs, etc. through the NSA. Do you believe this information helps fight terrorism? Why or why not? Do you believe this violates my Fourth Amendment right against warrantless searches of my property?
            Thanks and MAGA!

            Mr. Trump,
            I'm a legal immigrant and a US citizen for the past 10 years. My entire family was so happy to finally see someone talking about the illegal immigration issue seriously on the national stage.
            Obviously the most glaring problem is the nearly open Mexican border, but I want to know if you have plans to deal with the other avenues used by illegal immigrants. For example, nearly 500k people overstayed their temporary visas in 2015. That number is sure to increase massively once the border routes are cut off.
            What are your thoughts on dealing with this issue?

            I was wondering, since you think most of the mainstream media is biased and incompetent, if you follow any independent news sources, like Breitbart or Regated, that have stepped up to cover your campaign more accurately?

            Hello Donald, my question concerns NASA. I feel NASA is an important program to keep the United States competitive with the rest of the world. They are under constant fear of being defunded, and we are using the Russians for rides to ISS. Can you clarify your stance on NASA?

            To the untrained eye, if often seems that your actions as a candidate are very off-the-cuff and unplanned. However, many here have perceived a very intricate methodology to many of them, with a great deal of them revealing hidden depth as time goes on, or casually subverting the untrained mind into patterns of thinking that lead them to question their long-held beliefs. This “4D Chess”, as we refer to it here, has confounded your opponents throughout your campaign, most recently leading Hillary Clinton to reveal that her emails may have sensitive information in an illegal fashion.
            How much thought do you put into these complex and nuanced words and actions? Do you have to make an effort to plan them, or do they just naturally come to you?

            Mr. President Trump, sir. His Nimbleness. 2017-2025, His Golden Lionself. Thank you for gracing us with your presence.
            My question is about:

            WAR ON DRUGS

            The war on drugs has been a total disaster, particularly the war on marijuana. Colorado has seen great success with legalization and regulation of recreational weed. History teaches us that prohibition only makes things worse by creating black markets. "Medicinal" weed would only serve to make billions for the pharmaceutical industry/lobbyists. Do you agree or disagree? And how would you tackle this issue on a federal level?
            [–]KayJustKay 493 points494 points495 points  (13 children)
            Mr Trump,
            I am a legal immigrant who is currently awaiting his green card. I came here through the L then later E visa. I refused to use the H system (though it would have been cheaper and easier) as I see it as morally bankrupt and severely harmful to both the economy and the job market of America.
            Do you intend to overhaul the H1 system and what will you do to the current biased visa system to encourage more immigration from developed nation to bring in educated workers who intend to commit to America?
            Also, on a completely non rational point, as a Scottish American, I hope your YOU smash it.
            Cheers

              Mr. Trump,
              As a manual laborer I have seen repeated mass layoffs/terminations of staff that were born here, only for the jobs to be filled with the cheapest immigrants management can find.
              My question to you as someone who's seen our blue collar jobs go from middle class Americans to our factories going overseas and the ones remaining getting filled with the cheapest labor they can find.
              What do you see as the future of blue collar work in America?

              2.)What is your opinion on term limits for congress?
              3.)Will we be able to pay, let's say, $75 to have our name etched onto the wall to help cover the costs?

              **Mr. Trump,
              Reports estimate that 90% of US media is owned by 6 companies. The US mass media has fused into a gross alliance with big business and big government as this election has shown more than any other. The dishonest media is rigging our democracy with a radical agenda that divides americans and causes nothing but sensationalism and hatred at the expense of the USA. They are killing our country for ratings and profit, with impunity.
              How will you, as president, tackle this protected class of media elites without stepping on the first amendment rights of average americans?
              PS: I went to your Houston rally, it was burning and I was one of the last ones in but it was worth it to see you speak, thank you so much! MAGA!**

              Knowing how corrupt Clinton is, and how this extends to almost everyone who associates with her, in combination with the huge amounts of funding behind her from her shady owners, I believe this to be a real threat and it would be the only scenario in which you would lose the election to her.

              I’d like to address the elephant in the room and say that you LIED sir! You told me I would get tired of winning and I’m NOT EVEN CLOSE!
              My question is related to nuclear energy: I’ve watched nearly every rally but I haven’t seen you mention nuclear energy too much. What do you think about aggressively building nuclear plants in this country so that we can be completely energy independent?
              Also, I’d like to say, from the bottom of my heart, that we’re with you. When you said that “we’re a team” during the convention it felt genuine. I hope you know that we’re with you 100%. We ARE a team. We’ve got people at this very moment manually going through the DNC e-mails looking for felonies, we’ve people manually looking through Hillary’s e-mails, we’ve got people analyzing and mapping out all the connections of the Clinton Foundation, we’ve got people posting and sharing your tweets everywhere - everyone is doing their best to get you into the Whitehouse.

              Good Evening Mr. Trump,
              Air Force Officer here. The proposal by the Senate Armed Services Committee, and championed by Sen. McCain, would drastically cut Basic Allowance for Housing for our Active Duty troops of all branches.
              Many young Airmen that I have talked to would seriously consider leaving the service if these cuts were made.
              Our troops are relatively under-compensated compared to their civilian counterparts, especially in non-combat roles such as contracting and engineering.
              The politically correct culture now has infiltrated the Armed Services, and frequently acts as ankle weights for those in leadership. It keeps good ideas from being shared and acted upon and penalizes troops for very small missteps.
              Mr. Trump, my question to you is, what is your plan to support and retain the fine folks serving in our military?
              V/R,

              Hello Mr. Trump. Over the past few years, the future of space exploration has come into question with the cancellation of the Space Shuttle, the rise of new aerospace companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin, and the race to Mars. Additionally, NASA and its latest project, the Space Launch System, have been criticized as inefficient and wasteful because the program is costing billions while being delayed for years.
              What are your thoughts on the current state of the private space industry? What are your plans as president for NASA, especially in regard to the question of its current role in space exploration?

              President Trump, thank you for doing this AMA. My question for you is regarding your stance on NASA and space exploration in general. I know Newt Gingrich feels strongly about this topic, and I hope you may have spoken about it because the scientific revolution involved in the exploration of space in the past century are perceived as one of those details that made America Great in the first place. As president, would you favor increasing the budget for NASA? Would you help and collaborate with private companies such as Spacex to achieve their goals, such as colonizing Mars in this case?
              [–]earlymusicaficionado 285 points286 points287 points  (8 children)
              Mr. Trump,
              I am a family physician. Many physicians are becoming increasingly frustrated as we watch government regulations and mandates invade the physician-patient relationship, to the detriment of healthcare. Insurance and hospital corporations have been just as damaging for the same reasons, chasing out the traditionally independent physician, and eroding physician autonomy. How will you return control of medicine in the United States back to the physicians, so that we can spend more time treating our patients, and less time being mired in red tape?

              My family legally immigrated to this country and we are all voting for you. We think that immigration is a very important issue and we want everyone coming in to follow the rules just like we did. However, the legal immigration system is currently a mess and encourages illegal immigration. What is your plan to reform the legal immigration system?

              You’ve expressed your support and appreciation for police.
              What would say to a young college student like myself who is considering a job in law enforcement, but might have been discouraged by the recent attacks on police?

              We will always stand with and support our nation's amazing police. There is nothing more honorable then serving your community and your country as a law enforcement officer. My administration will protect those who protect us. Thank you to all the incredible police officers in our country tonight.

              I don't know what Mr. Trump will say if he replies, but I for one am in the same boat as you. Don't be discouraged, the silent majority of citizens are always on the police's side. You just don't see it because they aren't rioting or looting or hurting people. And I'm sure everyone important in your life supports you too.

              As president what will you do about the blatant censorship from powerhouses like google who "coincidentally" remove negative things from search suggestions for the candidate (Hillary) that they support? And pushes negative articles about candidates they don't like?
              google is almost monopolistic in how much power it has and can sway many people intentionally on any subject. We have proof as google's Eric Schmidt pumps money into startups that are helping Hillary.

              MIGA - Make the Internet Great Again!
              America's internet costs more and does less than in many other countries. We used to be first. Sad.
              We stopped being first when the free market got destroyed for American Internet. Consumers used to have choices. ISPs used to have competition.
              You know the great things that free market capitalism can do. But we need a free market for that to happen. The ISPs have local monopolies or duopolies that have strangled the free market. I have seen two proposals for fixing this:
              1) Separate ISPs from the "last mile". The companies that physically connects you is separate from the companies that provide service. This way, even if you only have one (i.e. cable or fiber) connection, you will still have access to multiple ISPs (providers). This strategy has been used successfully in the alcohol industry. See the three tier system. This would restore competition and the free market.
              2) Regulate ISPs as a utility and force them to wholesale services to competitors. This will also create competition. For examples of wholesale services providing competition see the cellphone industry's MVNOs. Also see the Telecommunications Act of 1996 which required the telcos to allow competitors access to their local lines at regulated wholesale rates.
              We know competition is the answer thanks to Google Fiber. When Google Fiber comes to town suddenly the incumbents can offer faster speeds and lower prices.
              Personally, I prefer option 1 as it gives the government the least power while restoring the free market. There also may be other options I am unaware of.
              American voters are very dissatisfied with the poor service and high cost caused by a lack of competition.

              Hello Mr. (future) President!

              I have 3 topics I would love to hear your thoughts on! Feel free to answer all or some!

              Space Exploration

              What are your thoughts about America’s future in space exploration and what role will the Trump administration have in it? Assuming budgeting allows it,
              • 1) Would the Trump government be open to expanding manned or unmanned American space exploration?
              • 2) What about projects like the Orion spacecraft?
              • 3) Would work towards a Mars (or another moon) mission be accelerated?

              Breaking up Trusts

              Do you have any plans for antitrust laws? In the past, America had laws aimed at preventing a small number of hands from pulling the strings of very large monopolistically competitive corporations. These companies, such as Rockefeller’s Standard Oil, crushed competition and held far too much power. So, then president Roosevelt enacted antitrust laws to break up these monopolies as best he could. Today, we have multiple monopolistically competitive corporations that are far bigger than Standard Oil ever was and hold far more sway over the public psyche than any of the monopolies of the past ever could. The essence of Capitalism is healthy competition so,
              • 1) As president would you consider bringing back real antitrust legislation against monopolistic companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc? They have no loyalty to any nation and many are run by megalomaniacs that will do anything to line their pockets. They may be private companies but they provide a public service.
              • 2) Would you consider enacting antitrust laws against media conglomerates such as News Corp? A few men and their friends control a massive number of media outlets all over the world and they get to decide the narrative. Would you be willing to support bringing back legislation that limited the number of media outlets that one person/group could be allowed to own?
              • 3) Your campaign has pointed out that The Washington Post has been used by Jeff Bezos of Amazon for political purposes. Would you be willing to support independent journalistic integrity by restoring past legislation restricting the owners of big businesses from using their own media holdings for their own political/financial purposes?

              Cybersecurity

              This is an issue that is not very well know or discussed by politicians because it doesn’t provide much political capital with voters, but it is nonetheless very important to our national and personal security. Chinese (and others) hackers routinely hack American companies involved in science, research, and engineering and steal technologies developed by them. Our government does little to prevent this. Many companies collect and store personal data from customers and don’t enact proper security protocols to maintain its privacy. Just look at the DNC and Crooked Hilary!
              • 1) As president would you support legislation defining some sort of security protocols that companies would be obligated to follow to insure the security of their data?
              • 2) Do you think methods like personal encryption make us safer from malicious individuals (or governments) or do they make us unsafe by preventing law enforcement from doing their job?

              Bonus

              What do you think about /r/The_Donald?
              If you haven't figured it out, this subreddit consists of a lot of young folks and the immaturity clearly shows. What are your thoughts?
              Thank you for doing this AMA. MAGA!
              [–]Birdorcage1USA 307 points308 points309 points  (2 children)
              Mr Trump, never did I think we would have a major candidate running for president who was opposed to globalist practices such as NAFTA, TPP, and open borders. Could you expand upon when you first began to be skeptical of these ideas, and what lead you to being pro-American sovereignty? Would a Trump Administration place the United States Constitution above any international agreement, including the UN Charter?
              [–]QasaurSWE 363 points364 points365 points  (22 children)

              Mr. Trump,

              You stated on Twitter during the primaries that auditing the Federal Reserve System is something that you deem necessary and is something that you could get behind. You may also be aware of the policy of extensive quantitative easing (money printing) that has been pursued by Janet Yellen, the Federal Reserve, and indirectly by the Obama administration as a way to "restart" the economy after the 2008 financial crisis.
              However, we all know that the economy has barely recovered (if at all, just look at the employment and production figures), and there are some economists (who are not affiliated with the Federal Reserve, of course) who believe that the policy of quantitative easing which has inflated the money supply by over 440% since 2008 has made the situation even worse (inflated the bubble) and may be the foundation of an even larger economic crash and depression in the near future. These same economists believe that centrally planning our money supply through the manipulation of interest rates and the money supply will always end like all other times where government has attempted to plan and coordinate a complex market - in total disaster.
              With all this being said, my question to you is the following:
              With the Federal Reserve being a common denominator in major financial and economic crises in the past and present, what is your opinion on the monetary policy currently pursued by the United States and what do you think should be done about the Federal Reserve, if anything at all?
              Thank you!

              Hello Mr. Trump,
              Have you ever visited /r/the_donald or other pro-trump online communities for ideas? We have seen tweets that contain similar wording to a comment that was made here or elsewhere hours before the Tweet was sent out. We have also seen memes and the "Can't Stump The Trump" video that you have Tweeted before. So my last question is do you think your social media presence has impacted your popularity amongst young voters.

              Dear Mr. Trump,
              Thank you for taking time out of your extremely busy day and life to come here and answer some of our questions! It's very much appreciated, and this transparency you're bringing is one of MANY reasons I've jumped on the TrumpTrain!
              I'm a disabled American, who's been unable to work fulltime in over 6-7 years. I have a very debilitating stomach disease which prevents me from enjoying the basics of life, such as eating or sleeping. After years of going through pharmaceutical products in hopes that something will help(nothing has), I've found the one thing that's been able to truly help this 24/7 pain, cannabis/marijuana.
              My question for you, Mr. President; what are your plans for the legalization of cannabis, whether medicinally or recreationally? Are you going to hinder the current progress made by almost half the country(who currently have either medicinal laws or full recreational laws on the books) https://i.sli.mg/PoTdNp.jpg or will you help propel this new lucrative business opportunity for our country into new heights?
              Take Colorado for example, https://i.sli.mg/U73Stu.jpg in one year since legalizing cannabis, their economy is booming better than ever, there's more money for the school systems, crime rate is down, traffic fatalities are down, the drug cartel's revenue is down, and even opiate deaths are down! https://i.sli.mg/2owZaa.jpg Imagine this type of growth for the entire country!
              Even a new poll out today shows that positive interest in Cannabis Legalization is increasing in not only everyday Americans, but Republicans as well https://i.sli.mg/DEVGYs.png
              And the best part about this wonderful plant which helps me get some semblance of a life? It has never, EVER killed anyone from an overdose, it's literally impossible to die from using this plant, no matter how much you take https://i.sli.mg/2ca8Fr.png
              Will you help push for legalization of cannabis as President?
              I know that on the list of priorities in this country, with ISIS threats and disgustingly horrible attacks happening in the Western world almost everyday, with a crumbling infrastructure, with many Americans not having fulltime jobs(me included), with even more jobs being sent away overseas to other countries, etc etc, I know that legalizing this plant may be on the lowest end of the spectrum of priorities. But for me, and many other sick Americans who rely on this plant, this issue is as important as life itself.
              Thank you so much for your time in doing this AMA for all of us, thank you for taking the time to campaign around the country and giving the silent majority a voice, we all know you never had to do this, so thank you for stepping up when the time was right to help MAKE AMERICA GREAT AND SAFE AGAIN!

              Hello, Mr. (Future) President!
              In a 1988 interview with Oprah Winfrey, you said you wouldn't run for president unless "Things got so bad, I could never rule it out completely." My question to you is, what was that seminal moment? The exact moment when you could no longer sit on the sidelines and watch America continue to go down the tubes.

              How confident are you that Hillary will actually debate you? I think it would be a glorious thing to behold, but she's not stupid and I can't see any benefit for her. I can easily see her finding excuses to refuse a debate. (Such as "Until Trump apologizes for xyz, it's obvious we can't discuss things like civil adults." etc.) What do you think?

              Mr. Future President Trump
              I know you will have much to do in the oval office and far greater problems to resolve, but could you please reform our Copyright & Patent laws?
              The duration of copyright makes authors works end up in the ownership of big corporations who only exploit them for profit, the expiry date is ludicrous (time of author’s death + 70 years) and it was never supposed to be that long.
              The first Copyright Act was in 1790, it was only for a term of 14 years, with the right to renew for one additional 14 year term should the copyright holder still be alive. Ever since then big corporations did everything they could to extend the expiry date (biggest example is the CTEA of 1998, amici curiae economists in court against the CTEA said that it was highly unlikely that the economic benefits from copyright extension under the CTEA outweigh the costs) and now they stifle creativity in favor of profit for them as owners.
              The duration of copyright is not compatible with today’s economy and the laws were not made with the Internet in mind.
              As for patents, many companies claim patents for inventions they have not even made yet or ever will. Because of this there are many patent troll companies that hold patents ransom, blocking attempts at making an invention and set back many other legitimate companies from technological progress just so they could earn undeserved profit.
              There might be many more intellectual property laws that do not function as they were originally intended, I wish that these problems could be looked at as right now they only serve big corporations, stagnate technological progress and stifle creativity.

              First of all, I want to thank you for being such an energizing candidate. You have single handedly changed the right wing political field in a way nobody has since Ronald Reagan. You are the first candidate i've had the opportunity of voting for and I couldn't be more happy. Here are my questions:
              Has your stance on whistleblowers and internet neutrality changed at all after having seen the good that can be accomplished by organizations such as WikiLeaks?
              Would you consider reviving the Fairness Doctrine to counteract the collusion and bias that have clearly infected America's mainstream media?
              Will you change anything about the presidential primary process to make it less of an uphill battle for future non-establishment candidates?

              Both Bernie supporters and Trump voters discovered how corrupt our two-party system is. It took a billionaire TV star and strategic mastermind to defeat the GOP game while Bernie succumbed to the carrot and stick of the DNC and Crooked Hillary. When you are President, what will you do to reform the crony U.S. political system so that real Americans will have a chance to serve as, and vote for, elected officials who actually care about our country?
              [–]fitzrays 140 points141 points142 points  (5 children)
              Mr. Trump, you have run an exceptional campaign that has highlighted the corruption of "Establishment Politics" during the primary process. This was further exemplified this week by wikileaks publishing emails that highlight the internal corruption at the DNC (possibly leaked by a disgruntled DNC staffer).
              Sadly, we all know this corruption reaches much, MUCH deeper within the government itself and that many government workers are afraid to speak out since they risk severe repercussions.

              Would you consider creating an independent taskforce (and strengthening whistleblower laws) to allow government workers to submit evidence securely and confidentially in order to help eliminate corruption across all aspects of government?

              Mr. Trump,
              Our political process is broken. The Democrats cheated Bernie. The Republicans played many dirty tricks against you. Many cooked politicians have easy elections in safe districts with no competition. Americans feel trapped by our two party system. Campaign donations enslave politicians.

              Thank you for spending the time to answer our questions tonight.
              You have been vocal about your desire to potentially audit the Federal Reserve. Do you see this as a high priority for your first few years in office? To that end, do you have any specific steps in mind at this stage of your campaign? As President Trump, will you consider enlisting the help of former Congressman Ron Paul in an advisory role to accomplish this?
              Thank you for running and thank you for putting America first. Make America great again.

                Mr Trump, you’re a builder experienced with reviving troubled government projects, why are infrastructure projects in America so universally plagued with cost over-runs and delays? What can be done from the federal level to improve the rate of on-time and on-budget completion?

                Hello Mr. President. Donald J. Trump.
                Some people predict the many jobs will be terminated due to the advancement of machinery and robotics running domestic and foreign factories. How do you plan on help creating jobs to replace the lost of manufacturing jobs when the industry itself is becoming less human dependent?

                Hello Mr. Trump,
                You correctly predicted Britain's vote to leave the European Union. What are your thoughts on the "Brexit aftermath" so far and the new prime minister, Theresa May? How do you think British and American relations will be under your leadership?

                How can we manage to get the wall built to secure our country?
                Most of the land along the Mexican border is owned by private citizens. When the fence approved by President Bush in 2006 was built, the federal government tried using the power of eminent domain to get a hold of border-land, but ended up suing hundreds of families after they refused to sign away their rights to the land. How will we overcome this obstacle?
                Another problem: A 1970 treaty prohibits building anything that may cause obstruction of normal flow of the Rio Grande. Because of this and other reasons, the border fence was built considerably inland, leaving American land and citizens south of the border - unsafe. In some places, treaty obligations and river flood zones would require the wall to be built well into the US.
                These problems face our border-wall plan. How can we overcome them?

                President Trump, the great people of Colorado have earned a huge growth in there economy and a lower crime rate because of legalization of marijuana. Would you consider legalizing marijuana at the federal level, to use that revenue for improving inner city schools, infrastructure, and etc?

                Mr. Trump,
                Third Party candidates are tipped to have a much larger role in this election, with Governor Johnson on the edge of getting into the Presidential Debates, the first third party since Perot.
                What are your thoughts on the role candidates like Governor Johnson will play in this election? Do you believe they will play a large role?

                    Mr. Trump, I know that you have met (and presumably were friends with) Crooked Hillary Clinton in the past so my question is: How is Crooked Hillary really like when cameras are not around? Is she really the way she is described in the book "Crisis of Character"?
                    [–]Tennoji-hs 253 points254 points255 points  (15 children)
                    Dear Mr. Trump,
                     
                    I'm a big fan of yours and want to praise you for many things, but out of respect for other people's questions, I'll get straight to my own:
                     
                    Edward Snowden leaked US secrets to the world and endangered national security by doing so. However, some people argue this is ethically justifiable by ulterior motives. Sometimes the system is so crooked that you need to do something drastic to straighten it out again. Snowden tried to fix the problems he saw via legal ways first and only resorted to illegal ways when the system failed him. I understand you value loyalty a lot and what Snowden did was very disloyal to the US. But in some way it also seemed very loyal to the American people.
                     
                    Do you believe what Snowden did can ever be justified, for instance if he had opened the people's eyes to the corruption running rampant in the Democratic Party?
                    How would you treat him if he were to return to the US, legaly of course, under your presidency?
                    Would you agree that what Hillary Clinton did with her e-mails was in many ways worse, since her motives were purely egoistic?
                     
                    Kind regards and good luck in all your future endeavours,
                    Tennoji

                    Hello Mr. Trump, as you may know there are a lot of young Bernie Sanders supporters out there who have become disillusioned by both the conduct of the DNC and by the policy positions of Secretary Clinton (many of these Bernie Sanders frequent this site). What is the most important thing you would like to convey about yourself and your policy positions to the people who voted for Bernie in the primary but are now considering either staying home or voting third party in November?

                    Mr. Trump,
                    As a student at the University of Michigan, I was sadly unsurprised when students called the police after seeing chalk slogans in your support on campus. Such reactions are the pathetic results of a college culture now seen across the U.S. in which students are encouraged to feel safe rather than challenged and truly educated.
                    Do you believe that we should work to eliminate this new trend? If so, how and why?

                      QUESTION: What steps can be done to combat the national debt, approaching $20 trillion, and leave a visible impact? A balanced budget, cutting fraud, reducing abuse will help lead to shrinking it over time, but realistically, that would take decades. What else can be done?

                      Hello Mr. Trump. I'm 29 years old, registered Libertarian and have voted that way my entire life. I feel closely aligned with what the party stands for, and am passionate about it. However, this election I am starting to think that, while I think a Libertarian candidate is what's best for America long term, that you may be what America needs right now. I also feel like you care about this country so, so much, and you want what's best for it. This is a difficult decision for me, because on the issues I seem to either firmly believe or strongly disagree with what you have to say. I think you may be the best possible candidate for our economy, but I do fear some of your international policies,
                      I know that I am not the only 3rd party voter that feels this way. So my question to you is, what do you say to people like me who are on the fence about voting 3rd party(Johnson/Stein) or for you?
                      Thank you very much for doing this AMA.

                      Hi Mr. President! It’s an honor to have you here! I just have a couple of questions.
                      *How does it feel to go from being a fringe candidate on a stage with 16 other people to being the man single-handedly reinventing the GOP?
                      *What policy can we expect concerning NASA? Will you help us be first not only in trade but in scientific progress too?
                      *With rumors of voter fraud surrounding the Democratic primaries, how can we make sure the general election stays fair?
                      Thank you so much in advance, and best of luck beating Crooked Hillary!

                      My question to you is in what ways will border states like Arizona, Texas, and California begin to see economic improvements after the wall is built? Having lived in a border state for most of my life so far, it's hard to picture what they would be like with a REAL protected border.

                      Thank you for doing this AMA. This has really been an exciting campaign season and I was so excited to see you will be doing an AMA right here on /r/the_donald These are the questions I have, feel free to answer as many or as few as you would like.
                      1. How do you feel about doing debates on networks that have proven to be colluding with the DNC / Hillary Campaign? Will there be any push to ensure the debates are more fair?
                      2. In the future debates do you plan on bringing up older issues that the media seems to ignore, such as the speech transcripts or the lack of recent press conferences?
                      3. Why do you believe your movement has gained such a tremendous following online?
                      4. You have said before that you plan to deport the illegal immigrants currently in the United States, but many have criticized the difficulty of this task. Once president would you consider a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants currently in the country if they meet certain criteria?
                      5. What is your favorite food at Raising Canes?
                      On a side note, would you consider tweeting the link to the Clinton Cash documentary; after watching this today I believe it is extremely important for all voters to be aware of this.
                      Finally, as an Ohioan I strongly believe this state will vote Trump in a landslide. Thank you again for granting us this opportunity; MAGA!
                      EDIT: Mods please tell me /u/the-realDonaldTrump will be joining this subreddit's mod team!

                        It seems like during the campaign you have used the strategy of creating pejorative nicknames for your rivals and heavily promoting them. Is this something you have used in business and do you plan on continuing to employ it if you are elected and interact with foreign leaders?

Will Ivanka become a integral part of your administration and spokesperson for women's rights in our country? And possibly the first female President 8 years from now?

                          Dear Mr. Trump
                          Do you think you can shut down the massive H-1B, L-1, B-1 visa scams which have been going on for 25 years and has completely obliterated the US tech worker families (and US families who depend on US tech worker spending)? These visas are mathematically absurd and are bad for both US workers AND immigrant workers.
                          The total losses for "just the US tech workers" over the last 25 years is approximately $12 Trillion. That is not a typo. These visas are a "massive worker ponzi scheme" (i.e, replace older workers (i.e., workers over 35 years!) with younger H-1B, L-1, B-1 workers for the last 25 years).
                          NOTE: TISA (a small part of TPP) is even worse and it is H-1B, L-1, B-1 on steroids.
                          These are the links for your staff (Please talk to Senator Sessions. His (and/or his staffers) math is VERY GOOD and he knows these visas are mathematically absurd and it cannot work and is bad for ALL WORKERS i.e., both US and immigrant workers). A small limited immigration is not a problem, but the H-1B, L-1, B-1 math is absurd.
                          The title that the author chose for this book should perhaps convey the information clearly. “Sold Out: How High-Tech Billionaires & Bipartisan Beltway Crapweasels Are Screwing America's Best & Brightest Workers” https://www.amazon.com/Sold-Out-Billionaires-Bipartisan-Crapweasels/dp/1501115944

                          US tech workers are frustrated and leave the industry in droves and/or forced out and end up on long term unemployment. The following US census bureau report might help understand this systemic issue. http://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2014/cb14-130.html

                          Mr. Trump,
                          Thank you for fighting the good fight. Your historic presidential run has been an inspiration to me. I am a mid-thirties middle class American whose goal in life is to provide for his family so that my children can grow up in a better place than I did. Working in the IT industry, one of the biggest challenges to that goal is H1-B visa abuse. Your tough stance on this solidifies my vote.
                          However, another big threat I see is the outsourcing/offshoring of back office jobs to other countries. I’m not just talking about IT support and call centers. Recently, I’ve seen entire accounting and even HR departments being sent overseas for no other reason than to provide more value to an already healthy stock price. Do you have anything in your platform to address back office offshoring?

                          Mr Trump,
                          As a high school student who has had a strong disdain for common core education and is horrified at the thought of a Clinton presidency, I'd like to know what specific changes you would propose to our faulty education system?

                          With the concern of climate change increasing among many Americans and many (and I mean many) conflicting reports from the media regarding your stance on the issue, can you tell us what is your official position (or opinion) on climate change?

                          Mr. Trump, it is an INCREDIBLE honor to have you answering questions tonight! I've supported you even when there were 17 candidates running!
                          I'd like to ask a simple question if I may. Do you think the American Government needs to be more transparent with it's people? I know you believe that we need to stay unpredictable to take out the bad guys (ISIS,) but sometimes I feel that our government hides FAR too much from us.
                          In light of the recent email leak showing how corrupt the DNC is, do you think you would try and expose the corruption in our country and create a more open government for our people?

                          Hello future President Trump! This question is about both the public and private sectors of the space industry.
                          First, what are your thoughts on NASA and the budget of NASA? Do you believe that with better management NASA could accomplish more with its 19+ billion budget, or do you have something else in mind about NASA.
                          Secondly, what are your thoughts on the private sector of the space industry(SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, Virgin, etc.)? Many have said that the future of space is not in government agencies but in corporations? Do you believe so and how would you encourage the growth of the private space industry as President?
                          Thanks! November can not come soon enough!

                          What do you think about the current Internet infrastructure of America? I believe it could be better and greater, however the Internet service providers (ISPs) cannot or will not upgrade it. Is there anything you could do as president to make it great again?

                              Good evening Mr. Trump, I am a big fan of yours from across the pond.
                              Unlike Barack Obama and Crooked Hillary Clinton, who tried to scare the British people with obvious lies and fear-mongering, you came out in support of Brexit - a movement which in many ways echoes the sentiment of your presedential campaign. So..
                              1 - If you are elected president, will you strenghen the 'special relationship' between Britain and the USA which has been severely undermined under Obama?
                              2 - Does the Brexit vote give you a sense of momentum that this is a movement across the western world away from globalism and back to the basic principles of sovereignty and fair trade?

                              Mr. Trump,
                              This will probably get buried but in case it doesn't, I have a few questions:
                              1. Do you have a plan to end corruption in politics? You speak a lot about it and it's clear how corrupt things are. Would you work to change funding laws so that politicians wouldn't be able to be bought?
                              2. Do you have any plans or ideas on how to end the incredibly biased (borderline corrupt) news networks?
                              3. I remember seeing a statement that you made years ago (~2000) that the war on drugs was a complete failure and the only solution is to legalize everything in order to remove the black market and thus the criminal aspects of drug abuse. I thought that was the best approach I've ever heard. Do you still stand by this or do you have other tricks up your sleeve?
                              By the way, thank you for standing up for our country. I think any other billionaire at your age would have just enjoyed his retirement but you're giving up a lot to fix our country. It is inconceivable to me how much energy you have and how selfless you must be to do that. You inspire me to work hard every day and give me hope in this country's future (for the first time in my life). Thank you so much.

                              Mr. Trump,
                              I am an industry computer software engineer. Hillary has spoken of creating a Manhattan project to break encryption. The necessity of encryption technologies is paramount in today's hyper-collaborative world; cybercrime is rising and taxpayers are losing a lot of money in losses from insurance and online credit card purchase frauds. We as a nation have tried to restrict keysizes for encryption developed in the United States and we are still dealing with the clean-up from old machines and software implementations that are still online, performing mission-critical tasks in industry, that are still susceptible to stupid attacks that allow us to exploit the same weak encryption we sponsored to harm international, and more importantly, American-owned businesses. These kinds of downgrade attacks are plentiful here is another, and making encryption globally unsafe will cause a rise in cybercrime by increasing the risk of doing business online both domestically and internationally. The philosophy of compromising this brilliant field of research and security over an argument of essentially, "we don't want the bad guys to have it", imposes a horrible precedent that can open our doors to more national security threats than before.

                              I'm not an US citizen but here are few questions:
                              1. Have you ever considered including Poland in the Visa Waiver Program?
                              2. Will you make Ben Carson Secretary of Health?
                              3. Are you planning to decrease Nuclear Arsenal?
                              4. Do you think that Russian membership in NATO can be possible?

                              Have you seen the Clinton Cash documentary or read the book? When you are elected president will you have the FBI and the DOJ investigate and prosecute Bill, Hillary, and all those involved for campaign finance fraud, money laundering, wire fraud, and election fraud?

                              Hi Mr. Trump,
                              Your activity on social media has been essential in influencing millions of voters who otherwise may not have participated in this year's presidential election. Do you plan on continuing this activity as president, and do you foresee social media as a viable platform for "official" correspondence with the American people?
                              P.S. - Thank you for your tireless efforts to Make America Great Again. Regardless of this election's outcome, you have forever reshaped the landscape of American politics for decades to come.

Many in the dishonest media say that your tax plan will create a larger deficit, but fail to report that your tax plan would be implemented along with a massive reduction in government spending. What reductions in government spending do you plan on making?

                              Mr. Trump,
                              Whistleblowers don't get enough protection in this country. Edward Snowden was wrong to endanger American lives, but he did expose agencies that were being kept from the public. We've all seen how Julian Assange is exposing the Crooked Democratic Party -- his reward is exile. We need whistleblowers to expose corruption.

                              Will you do anything to protect whistleblowers?

                                Mr. Trump, what are your thoughts on the continuous terrorist attacks in Europe? There has been an attack every day for the last 5 days.
                                Why can’t the Democrats put political correctness behind them and realize enough is enough? Innocent people are being killed and the media doesn’t seem to care.

                                Mr. Trump,
                                1. I noticed that occasionally, ideas or concepts that were discussed on this page were picked up by your team shortly after they were posted here on /r/The_donald. Do you or your team keep an eye on this page for inspiration at all, or was it just coincidental.
                                2. I graduated college in 2009 and was welcomed by a cold job market, after struggling for year working menial jobs, I eventually gave up working "jobs", channeled my inner Trump, got a real estate license, and started putting all of those funds toward what I wanted to do. Radio. I started my own podcast, that was quickly picked up by a local FM radio station. We reached the front page of reddit with our previous Donald Trump episode, and I was wondering if you, Donald J. Trump, would be willing to come on our little show for a short interview about how a presidential race is somewhat like a sporting event (our show is sports related), and how you developed your drive to be the best at all you do.
                                Thank you for your time Mr. Trump.
                                Edit: a phone interview or Skype interview would be more than acceptable. We would also fly to wherever is convenient for you if need be.

                                Thank you SO much for doing an AMA with the community here. It means SO much to ALL of us! I would be so honored to hear your response to either of my questions as they mean so much to me and for the success of our movement.
                                Republican candidates historically struggle to appear compassionate and relatable to Americans in exchange for dry policy speeches that many Americans can't connect with. What will you do to showcase your love and devotion towards ALL Americans, and defeat the Democrats' FALSE narrative of a divisive, hateful, bigoted, and self-interested Republican candidate and party come November?
                                And the second:
                                Historically, Republicans have done a poor or absent job reaching out to typically Democrat constituencies and campaigning in Democrat districts. How will you reach out to heavily-Democratic groups such as women, and the black, Hispanic, and LGBT communities, and what will you do to change the perception and outreach efforts of the Republican Party to be one of inclusion and prosperity for ALL Americans?
                                I also have a personal question:
                                I am an American with a learning disability; I am on the autistic spectrum/have Aspergers' syndrome. This makes it challenging to socialize, network, and have initiative in life which are critical to career advancement, but our education system and our workforce fails to adequately recruit, train, and accommodate disabled workers. What will you do for Americans with learning disabilities in regards to our education system and finding gainful employment in our competitive workforce?
                                I also want to thank you for sacrificing yourself for this country. I know it must be tough to endure the vicious and extreme character defamation you've had to endure. It means SO much to ALL of us that you would risk your fortunes and your reputation to Make America Great Again! We love you for it, and thank you again!
                                I hope you come to Wisconsin again soon. I'd love to have a chance to meet you!

                                Hi Mr Trump, I am a gay supporter that is 15. I have a very simple question.
                                What will you do to help low income families like mine?
                                My grandfather died almost a year ago and now it's just me and my grandmother (who severd in the Air Force) and we're broke by the end of every month, if not 2 weeks prior. I agree that welfare needs to be limited in some cases, but how will that work in families of a retired elder (who is 75 years old) and a child who can not yet work.

                                1) How do you plan on practicing for the debates with Crooked Hillary? (Do you even need to considering you can't stump the Trump)
                                2) As a father of five children myself, and relatively (to the average American) of some means (I'm a project manager turned division of a company manager) how the hell dId you raise your children to be that amazing?

                                Hello Mr. Trump,
                                In the past 7 months, we've had mutliple major terrorist attacks occur in the US. All of these attacks resulted in the deaths of many US citizens, and have instilled fear into the American people. We all know who is causing these attacks, and what their motives are, but the media chooses to ignore the truth in order to further push their globalist agenda. We have Obama in power, cabinet members, so many people, yet no one wants to stand up and say who is responsible for these chaos except you, and your supporters. We know it is radical Islamic terrorism, but the media insists that they can't "untangle the motives" of the terrorist. What is keeping the people that are supposed to keep us safe from recognizing what is causing this chaos? Why can't they be honest? Is it simply political correctness at play or is it something more?

                                  Mr. Trump,
                                  A question about growing our economy-
                                  How can we have 6% growth in GDP when we have a fiat currency with unlimited inflation potential? How can we hold inflation down as the economy grows during your presidency?
                                  Thanks!

                                  Mr. Trump, I can't imagine how valuable your time is and we appreciate you taking a moment to be with us, it's truly an honor! You're the Maestro of this symphony-- we're trying our best to keep pace with your high-energy!
                                   
                                   
                                  My question is simple: Once you're at home and out of the public eye, how do you get comfy? Do you own a pair of slippers?

                                  Mr. Trump,
                                  I am concerned that the anti-gun movement is gaining traction recently. How will you protect the full and complete second amendment rights of Americans from those who seek to erode our Constitutional rights?

                                    Hello future president Trump,I was a strong Bernie supporter from the start but after seeing the corruption of the DNC and his DISGRACEFUL endorsement of Hillary nearly gave me a brain aneurysm so now I look to you to lead our country back on the right path. My question is what is the crucial action that must be taken in order to wipe ISIS off the planet and end their reign of terror?

                                    Hi Mr Trump, Do you know about the openly gay conservative pro Trump Breitbart reporter Milo Yiannopoulos and his college campus tour and recent Twitter ban? If so what do you think about him and/or his permanent Twitter ban and would you ever consider using him in any way for your campaign?

                                    Mr. President Trump, I'm a lifelong fan and current supporter of you this election. Thanks for doing this AMA on this wonderful forum.
                                    Unlike many at the impressive age of 70, you have immensely high energy that is just incredible to witness for all of us.
                                    Today in the morning I saw your news conference in Doral, Florida and just a couple of hours later you're at a rally in Scranton, Pennsylvania with no visible sign of fatigue whatsoever.
                                    Not to mention your healthy appearance at an age where many look frail and weak. (your hair is immaculate too)
                                    What is your secret to this high energy superiority of yours? If I am even half as energized as you when I reach your age, I'll be more than happy.
                                    Yours truly, LucidThump

                                    What do you think about private prisons for eligible inmates and having a program that puts them to work in the community or learn skills such as welding, plumbing, repairing streets, building houses, etc? They could be paid a wage that they can bank for release and learn new skills in order to hit the ground running.

                                      President Trump, it has become apparent over the past year of your campaign that one of the most treacherous obstacles to American liberty and safety is mainstream media. Your instincts at managing media are inspiring. What advice do you have for other aspiring Conservative/America-1st Nationalist leaders who must navigate the hostile and biased treatment from journalists & reporters?

                                          Soon to be elected President Donald J. Trump, it is a truly an honor sir. I have been with you since day 1 and you have inspired me and millions of others to take back our country. It is clear that most Americans now believe that the system is rigged for the political elite. As President, what do you think are the best ways to fix the special interests and foreign control over our government? Also, what is your message to Independent voters on the fence and Bernie supporters who are hurting and eager for campaign finance reform? Thank you!

                                          I'm a black college student from Florida currently attending UCF, I was wondering about your take on the accusations of racism that have been thrown at you by the media and your opponents. I personally don't believe you to be as they say, but it would be interesting to know what you and your campaign plan to do about these accusations in the general election

                                          Mr. Trump, I first want to thank you for doing this AMA, and thank you for everything you have done for our country already. You're my inspiration, I've read your book, "The Art of the Deal" and it is fantastic.
                                          So to my question. As small business owner who manufactures everything in the USA, as well as the son of 2 wonderful small business owners themselves, What is your plan with IRS audits and shakedowns?
                                          My parents just went through a 3 year shakedown from the IRS which at the end the IRS found absolutely nothing. Though my parents didn't have to pay any fines or anything, all of the accounting and lawyer costs were so massive that they almost made my parents' business go under. It's horrible that the government themselves came and almost destroyed my parents business even when they did nothing wrong.
                                          Any comments on this subject would be great!
                                          Thank you Mr. Trump

                                          Hello Mr. Trump! I am a big fan from across the globe, Finland! For quite some time I have seen tremendous violence and other attacks being committed by unintegrated migrants that have arrived to Europe in great and ever increasing numbers. And it seems that the entire leadership of Europe had gone insane, they ignore and excuse these terrible acts! And then they ask for even more migrants, despite the previous ones being a huge burden!
                                          The biggest and one of the only political forces calling this out is you, Mr. Trump. And the media is so dishonest, they hate you for saying the truth so they must try to stop you, but they must also lie because you have reasonable policies! And this isn’t only happening in the US, the media is dishonest everywhere, in Europe especially!
                                          My question is, if (or when) you become the president of the USA, will you use your political power to try to be a positive influence for us Europeans as well? If so, how do you plan to help?

                                          Hello Mr. Trump and welcome to /r/The_Donald.
                                          In an interview 20+ years ago with Oprah Winfrey you said you would only run for President if things got "really bad" in the US.
                                          Knowing that my question is what was the event (the straw that broke the camel’s back as they say) that made you realize things were now "really bad" in the US and it was time to run for President?

                                          Outside of spending literally thousands of hours at this point spreading your message and arguing against the lies that have been spread about your campaign (to the cost of quite a few friends and family, sadly!), what can I (and everyone else here) do to take a more official position in helping your campaign? I'd love to do more.
                                          Thank you, and let's Make America Great Again!

                                          First I would like to thank you for taking the time to come visit our DomReddit and answer some of our questions. As you have stated in many different interviews and speeches, you are interested in the power of the states against the Federal Government. Whether it is gay rights, Common Core, or even gun laws, you have consistently stated that you believe the individual States should be able to decide what they want. My question is how exactly will the Trump administration move such powers from our overpowered Federal Government back to the individual State?
                                          Thank you for your time.

                                              Are there any lessons or major events that influenced your current campaign from when you were looking to be the nominee of the Reform party?
                                              Also, my Dad is an 80 year old veteran that lives in Oakland. He wears his Make America Great Again hat everywhere he goes. He tells me more often than not that he met the nicest people that all have positive things to say about his hat and your candidacy. November is going to be a landslide and the Trump Train has no brakes. My Dad and I can't wait for you to come back to the Bay Area for another rally. Thank you, Mr. President!

                                                Hello Mr. Trump,

                                                This question has a few parts. Excuse me if it's lengthy, but many of us here are wondering these exact questions. Thank you for taking the time today. Can't say Crooked Hillary would do the same.. MAGA
                                                 
                                                1st Do you plan on bringing up Hillary's involvement during her time in the administration, where they allowed Russia to purchase ~20% of our nation's uranium mining assets, by allowing the direct government purchase of the private North American company Uranium One?
                                                Over this same span, they were taking in Millions to the Clinton Foundation from Russian quasi state-owned investment banks. Here is a source.
                                                 
                                                2nd In this new digital era, touchscreen voting machines have the ability to subvert the will of the democratic process at the whim of a covert hack, and possibly even by a single programmer. What are your thoughts on the possibilities of electronic voter fraud through malicious programming? Do you think paper ballots should be used instead, to ensure the ability to have a physical recount if necessary?
                                                 
                                                3rd Do you think the Justice Department will investigate the recently leaked media collusion issues, as well as censorship coming from Google, Facebook, Twitter and the like, and attacks against you specifically coming from Google this morning? There are many examples here on reddit in our coffers including two really bad ones this morning. Here are a couple. One , Two
                                                 
                                                4th Would you consider asking Hillary what she thinks the motive might have been for the murder of DNC staffer Seth Rich, who died last week in Washington DC right before the Email leaks? Or is that a no-touch?
                                                 
                                                Thank you for coming here and answering our questions! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

                                                President Trump,
                                                Can you promise to look for any methods to help states that have fallen victim to "gunpocalypse" style highly restrictive laws? Such as California, New York, Minnesota.
                                                Thanks

                                                Mr. Trump, Do you believe that Bernie Sanders should sue the DNC over the internal bias against him that cost him the nomination? This question is not in support of Bernie, I merely wish to know Mr. Trump's opinion of the the spineless idiot and his actions.

                                                Hey Mr. Trump,
                                                I'm a 23-year old transgender woman from small town NH. I remember you dropped by the red arrow diner back when NH was still holding its primary and it made all the local papers.
                                                For a long time now the Republican party has been known for its outright hostility towards most lgbt folks, but I've also noticed you've been largely silent on the subject. Could you take a moment to clarify your position on already existing legislation that's been passed this year, as well as what (if any) plans you have to keep transgender Americans like myself safe if you're elected president?
                                                Thanks.

                                                Mr. Trump:
                                                First, I just want to give you my utmost thanks for doing this. As a younger, first time voter, I saw the media go from loving you, during the horrible attack on our country on September 11th, to launching a slanderous campaign of misinformation and hatred towards you. I live in a pretty left state and it disgusts me how many people think Clinton isn't all that bad, or sanders still has a shot.
                                                1. Today, if a fair election were held, it's clear you'd come out on top. Further down the road, I think it's safe to say the same, but the operative word is "fair". Given the rampant corruption in the DNC and the terrible lack of principles on Clinton's part, how do you plan to defend yourself against tampering with votes?
                                                2. I haven't heard a strong plan for college and healthcare from you. I'm 100% with you but I have a LOT of friends who are teetering between voting independent and voting you, and college and healthcare is THE deciding factor for them. What would you like to tell them?
                                                3. Many, many years ago, there were a few interviews, specifically between you and Oprah I believe, during which you were asked about a political run. You responded you wouldn't like to be president, but if it came down to it, and America reached a point of corruption and debt, you would consider it. Is that what made you decide to run? If not, could you explain the process?
                                                4. What are your plans for the BLM movement's alleged plans with Loretta Lynch to institute martial law under Obama? Do you think there's any legitimacy? If so, how do you plan to combat that?
                                                5. How do you feel about Twitter (censoring Milo; also how do you feel about Milo), Google (censoring you when searching "presidential candidates"), and Facebook (blocking outbound links to wikileaks), among others? Are you for a free internet?
                                                Feel free to answer these questions selectively if you don't want bad net from some of them.
                                                Thank you for your time!
                                                EDIT: When you posted a caricature of a anthropomorphic frog with your hair next to an American flag and a trump sign, did you understand the implications?

                                                Thank you Mr. President for doing this AMA!!!!
                                                I know you are extremely busy, but please answer my question if you can, I do not care how long it takes for a response!

                                                Question: How do you plan on revitalizing the dying private practice medical industry and helping small business doctors?

                                                There is a massive doctor shortage in the US. Nearly 50% of private practitioners have closed their doors since Obamacare was rammed through. Because of the ever increasing costs and regulations, doctors went from making ~ 75 cents on the dollar to now ~ 15 cents. They also have every decision second-guessed by bureaucrats who never even went to medical school.
                                                By 2025, it is estimated the US will lose over 100,000 doctors. Every doctor I speak to advises potential medical students NOT to go into medicine! Applications to medical schools have decreased drastically over past 3 years. A lot of potential doctors do not see the personal cost/benefit of practicing under socialized medicine. Less than 50% of recent Mayo Medical School graduates plan on practicing medicine!
                                                It’s hard to convince someone to sacrifice 8+ years to be a doctor, when they can just go to law school for 3 and make 10x the money.

                                                Indians should hate her for Clintons trying to influence indian politics through their evil front Clinton foundation.

                                                Good morning Mr. President,
                                                My question involves legal immigration to the USA. I married my wife in November 2014. I am a natural-born US citizen, and she is from and was living in South Asia at the time of our wedding. After we were married, I worked on getting all the information needed to the appropriate offices (USCIS), and it took TWO YEARS for her to finally get the chance to come be with me here in the USA.
                                                There were no issues with my application, the problem was the bureaucracy. After a document was sent to the Department of State, or DHS, they would acknowledge receipt, and then it would be six months or longer until any further action was taken with no support or explanation of what the cause of the delays were. This process grows longer and longer for immigrants to come to the USA lawfully, while it seems illegal immigrants are given instant access to the country, and provided with government programs for which legal immigrants are unable to obtain, e.g. medicare or food- stamps. When you are elected, what will you do to improve the legal immigration process to make sure that immigrants who are qualified to enter the country are able to come and reunite with their spouse or family without unduly long delays? Also, what will you do to make the prospect of coming illegally less appealing to potential illegal aliens, or once they’re here, how can you ensure once they are sent back they do not return?
                                                Thank you Mr. President,
                                                My wife and I are rooting for you, and you had my vote since the Arizona primary. MAGA

                                                Really good question. We have to start another K1 petition because we weren't informed about the deadline by my consulate, and now it's too late to gather everything we need.

                                                  Mr. Trump,
                                                  I propose to you, during your presidency, a monthly get together where 6 to 8 citizens of this great nation are chosen via random lottery and are invited to voice their concerns over dinner at the White House. This will be a great way for you to not only keep in touch with the American people, but also keep citizens active and excited about what is happening in their government. It can be likened to a more intimate fireside chat where you can get invaluable feedback from the people you will hopefully be representing come 2017. After seeing so much special treatment towards celebrities and other high profile guests during the current administration, it would be outstanding to see some average, hardworking Americans invited to the White House. The White House is the peoples house. It is a symbol of our country, and perhaps one of the most influential buildings in human history. I hope that you will be our tenant come this January, as we are drawing up eviction papers for the current tenants right now.
                                                  Thank you Mr. Trump for your time,
                                                  A Concerned Citizen.

                                                  Inviting members of the public to the White House was a great tradition started by Thomas Jefferson and lasted until 1885. Definitely a nice way to get regular folks more engaged with their leaders.

                                                  Mr. Trump, in what ways does political correctness by our leaders weaken us as a nation, and as president, how will your no-nonsense approach to discussing our most difficult problems help make us stronger?

                                                    Thank you so much for doing this AMA, Mr. President! I have three questions I would like to ask you:
                                                    1) When did you first settle on using President Reagan's 1980 campaign slogan "Make America Great Again"? Long before you announced you were running or leading up to the announcement? An absolutely brilliant choice given the immense number of similarities you both share. Button for reference http://i.imgur.com/5hs2skW.jpg
                                                    2) Do you think Ivanka Trump will ever run for president? After her speech at the RNC, I would love to see her become the first female president of this amazing country!
                                                    3) Will you ever get tired of winning?

                                                    Hello Mr Trump What's your stance on H1Bs?

                                                    Mr. Trump, as a software engineer who's been in the industry for 15 years with a bachelor's degree in computer science, I have a question related to the high tech industry. The H-1B program is supposed to help fill the void of qualified tech workers, but from personal experience it feels like more of a way for companies to commoditize the labor force and buy it for a cheaper rate.
                                                    What is your opinion of the H-1B visa program?

                                                    I am a fan and supporter of yours from Hungary. The Hungarian PM, Viktor Orban endorsed you last week, a first from a world leader. What are your feelings and opinion about his endorsement?
                                                    Thanks ahead for the answer and good luck on November 8th!

                                                    I have 2 questions:
                                                    1. I think that one way to make America great again is to improve the American education system and to help out teachers, would you agree with this?
                                                    2. Can you clarify your thoughts on global warming/climate change?

                                                    We all saw how much Governor Kasich liked to eat on the trail.
                                                    What is your favorite kind of pizza and what's the best place for pizza in NYC?
                                                    What type of cuisine do you enjoy eating the most?
                                                    Thank you.

                                                      Mr Trump, congratulations and thank you for all that you inspire. Space Exploration has been making tremendous strides providing hope and knowledge to the international community. NASA eliminating their shuttle program was a tough but necessary decision to avoid destroying their current budget. Their honesty to face when they were wrong is exactly how we expect agencies to operate. You are clearly the man who will be able to clean up waste, fraud, and abuse in our country but how do you plan on rewarding the agencies who remain responsible and efficient through difficult times? Specifically those based in science and discovery.

                                                      There is no reason for us to have a socialized space program. The future of space exploration will be a bright one if we end subsidies for companies like Boeing and SpaceX and let them complete across atmospheric and orbital boundaries.

                                                      Chris Hadfield (famous Canadian astronaut) said the shuttle program was garbage and Russia's program is way safer and more efficient. He goes to great length to explain why the Russian space shuttle Soyuz is better. Also note, pretty much the entire world helps Russia/USA with the shuttles and the shuttle technologies, so even though it is primarily a Russian shuttle, the best minds from all over the planet have contributed to it and it's numerous successes. You can read his book to learn all about it!

                                                      Welcome President Trump!
                                                      I started a little Trump Museum to drive my liberal friends crazy! It includes my 4 rally signatures, thank you!
                                                      • 1. How deep will The Greatest Wall go underground?
                                                      • 2. You graciously signed my $500 Bill in San Diego and my friend's $1000 Bill and Gold bar! What has been your favorite item to sign at a rally? https://youtu.be/oiB-G6mCCo4
                                                      • 3. Would you ever travel into space once space tourism is viable and very safe.

                                                      THANKS! all signatures were gotten by myself! I got up EARLY every day to get those at three different rallies! I hope Trump sees it, he will definitely remember signing the $500. Two INCREDIBLE pieces of American history coming together.. He also signed it the day after he hit 1237!

                                                      That is awesome! What did President Trump say? I can't make it out in the video.

                                                      IDK, Still cannot figure it out. I believe he says, "here was here wednesday" because two days before, at the Anaheim Rally, I held a conversation with Trump and he signed two of my hats and my friends $1000 as shown here in Dan Scavinos post https://twitter.com/DanScavino/status/735575755174748160.

                                                        If so will you post to both @realDonaldTrump and @POTUS?

                                                        Mr. President,
                                                        First, we are thankful for you taking the time to bless us with this opportunity. For many of us, this is the only place we can openly express and discuss our support for you without fear.
                                                        Many of your supporters are the silent majority. We are threatened with violence as well as destruction/vandalism of our home and vehicles if we publicly express our support. My husband and I both wanted to attend a rally but it was made clear that we could not do so safely, especially not with our 2 year old without fear. While many of the rioters at these events have been known to be paid, many others are not. They have demonstrated violence at the mere idea of you being a candidate. My husband and I are both veterans and discuss history and politics a bit together and one thing we fear are these same people after you are elected.
                                                        My question is, do you also worry about riots and violence from these same extremists immediately after you are elected and do you have a plan of attack for it if so?
                                                        Signed, Anxiously Awaiting You To MAGA.

                                                        Great question. There will be riots, i'm sure, but I think they'll be very short-lived. The anti-Trump folks are LOW ENERGY.

                                                        Further, and maybe more importantly, do you expect the corrupt establishment to intentionally damage the economy and push propaganda about how terrible the beginning of your presidency is, and do you have a plan to combat it?

                                                        Hello!
                                                        In your speech at the RNC you referenced a desire to build the railroads of the 21st century. I’d be interested in hearing from you on what types of projects you have in mind when you said this.
                                                        I’d also like to take the opportunity to outline one of my own suggestions.
                                                        To summarize the benefits of the proposal upfront:
                                                        • can be completed within 2-3 years (less than one term in office)
                                                        • costs up to $30 trillion but generates $18 trillion in revenue per year upon completion (costs are very, very conservative high end estimates as you will see later and ~$5T is more reasonable but I don’t want to oversell)
                                                        • at the end of 4 years, you have a net profit of $6T plus $18T in revenue every year thereafter
                                                        In other words, in your final year as president you can:
                                                        • pay off the national debt
                                                        • cut taxes to 0% across the board
                                                        • maintain all government spending without any further taxation
                                                        • start cutting a check to every American every year for $50,000
                                                        The project outline:
                                                        • Launch 100,000 tons of material into GEO using the Falcon Heavy at a cost of $1000/kg for total rocket costs of $100 billion
                                                        • This 100,000 ton of material is used to build a capturing device for payloads sent into space with a rail gun (the simplest idea, but not the best, is to think of it like a big fluffy mattress in orbit - you can hit the mattress with your rail gun payloads to bring them to rest with respect to your target in geosynchronous orbit)
                                                        • To give you an estimate of the railgun costs, high performance maglev tracks cost about $100 million per mile and we need 100 mile long track to keep the gee loading of launches within human survivability. That’s $10 billion, but adding a factor of 10 call it $100 billion for our launch device
                                                        The purpose of this system is to launch 17TW/s of solar power capacity into GEO.
                                                        • Here, I have used NASA’s estimates of material costs from 2012 with an economy of scale gained from 500MW production (34,000 times smaller than the actual scale, therefore grossly inflated costs on a per unit basis)
                                                        • $400 million material costs (solar panels, wireless transmission, mirrors, etc.) per 500 MW translates to $13.6T for 17GW of power.
                                                        To maintain the orbit of our capturing device, we have to provide thrust equal and opposite to whatever is imparted on the arriving payloads. NASA uses 25 kilogram ion thrusters that produce 90 mN of thrust which is the same as requiring 500 second burn time to correct for its own capture. A practical launch sequence for the project is something like this:
                                                        • Send up 500 MW of solar power generation capacity and 25,000 ion thrusters (what 500 MW can power)
                                                        • It takes 50 days for these 25,000 ion thrusters to correct the orbit of the station
                                                        • Every doubling of power output thereafter takes only 50 days and we need 16 doubling cycles to reach 17TW or ~26 months
                                                        Finally, the weight of the wireless transmission capacity is roughly equal to the weight of solar panels + mirrors + structural support, etc., so we need one last doubling cycle to send up the necessary equipment to beam our 17TW of power back down to Earth.
                                                        • The net result is that we’ve paid for 850 million ion thrusters at a cost of $10,000 a piece or $8.5 trillion on top of our $13.6 trillion in solar panels / mirrors / wireless transmission / etc.
                                                        • If you employ 10 million people at $100,000/year for 3 years as part of the project, that costs a further $3 trillion
                                                        • net total is ~$26T
                                                        The global average electricity cost is about $0.12/kwh so 17TW/s power generation is equivalent to $18T in revenue.
                                                        Some practical notes:
                                                        • material costs can be expected to drop ~95% from an increase in production scale factor 34,000 so our material inputs of $22 trillion is more likely close to $1 trillion
                                                        • I’ve calculated thrust requirements based on a vertical launch from Earth, but the more practical design is an angled launch so that our projectile arrives with a substantial portion (90%) of its orbital velocity, thereby reducing thrust requirements 90%
                                                        • We recapture ~30% of salaries paid ($3 trillion) in taxes plus economists put the multiplier effect of infrastructure programs at around 3 which makes them approximately revenue nuetral (i.e. further recapturing 30% of 3x your expenditure) without considering the benefits of the project in the long run
                                                        • we can build an orbital ring to support wired transmission of power back to Earth for less than the cost of sending up wireless transmission capacity
                                                        Therefore the more reasonable cost estimate is something like $1.1T (material) + $1T (GEO capture device + railgun launcher) + $3T (human labor at high salaries) but all of this should be considered revenue neutral due to stimulative effects.

                                                        If you’d like a much more detailed take on this project or other ideas, feel free to contact me via PM.

                                                        Wouldn't this crash the energy market with seemingly infinite energy?

                                                        No, it just expands the scope of what is economically possible.
                                                        Just as one example - think about the massive amount of energy you need to recycle things for example. We dump stuff in landfills because it is cheaper to dig up new raw material than to recycle old stuff. When you raise the energy throughput of the economy with projects like this, you can solve almost every major going concern in the world today.
                                                        What you'll get is sustained 20% GDP growth. I don't want to belabor the point, but just consider the fact that GDP is more tightly correlated with energy consumption per capita than the actual number of jobs! Pretty incredible right - the number of people working isn't the strongest variable determining how much we're producing.

                                                        Mr. Trump,
                                                        I'd like to first of all offer my sincere gratitude for sacrificing time away from your successful businesses and beautiful family in order to help Make America Great Again. You are a great man and it's a shame that the corrupt media has to paint you to be such a bad guy.
                                                        My question is: Taking into account the true extent of corruption and lies that Hilary is utilizing to further her campaign, the threat of voting fraud during the general election this November is a real concern that people have been discussing in this subreddit recently. Are you worried about this, and what can we do as Americans to help mitigate it?
                                                        Thank you so much for taking the time to answer questions for us today. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

                                                        What do you think is the reason that liberals such as Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton refuse to use the phrase “radical Islamic terrorism,”?

                                                        Hello Mr. Trump,
                                                        I have loved watching you own the media while simultaneously calling them out on their dishonesty. Do you have any plans for restoring integrity and credibility to the journalism profession once you become President?

                                                        Hello Mr. Trump, I have two questions for you.
                                                        First, do you believe Scott Adams is accurate about your campaign strategy? He thinks that the seeming "gaffs" you make are intentional as to generate free media coverage, saying things that can easily be taken out of context and then corrected.
                                                        Second of all, one thing that I feel has been taken out of context is your statement that we need to "Go after" terrorist families. Many have taken that to mean killing them, wheres I take it to mean you would prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law (And not lose track of them like the FBI did for Orlando shooter’s wife). Would you clarify what you meant here? I would like to have something to reference when correcting people about what you mean.
                                                        I pray that you win this November so you can Make America Great Again!

                                                        Hello Mr. Trump! For most of my life I have leaned slightly Democratic. Like most of the country, the state of today's politics in general has me disgusted. I understand you are a candidate that will certainly shake things up, but the mainstream media has me afraid to vote for you. Can you explain to some of us left leaning voters why we should ignore the media and vote Trump? Thanks!

                                                        Dear President Trump, savior of America, My fiancé and I are in EPS manufacturing on the east coast. We were wondering whether your import tariff system would focus more on individual industries (i.e. China vs European steel), more on individual countries' trade deficits, a flat rate, all of the above, or something totally off the wall? You are testament to the fact that anything is possible. And believe me, you have our attention, respect, and our vote. MAGA

                                                        Hello Mr. Trump. Thanks for taking time out of your busy campaign schedule to answer questions on /r/the_Donald. We are proud to offer our continued support as you nimbly navigate your way to Presidency of the United States. Who would you say is your biggest political influence and why? In what ways has their philosophy helped change or shape your own political views?

                                                        Hi Mr. Trump, thank you for doing this AMA, thank you for standing up against awful free trade agreements, and thank you for standing up to the establishment. Also, congratulations on winning the Republican nomination!
                                                        My questions: As someone who ran for president as an outsider without much prior political experience, what has been the most powerful thing you have learned during this campaign, either about yourself, the country, or the political process?

                                                          We all know what your plan is to make America great again, and we thank you for being here for us.
                                                          My question is this: what can I do to make America great again, aside from casting my vote for you this November?
                                                          A less serious one: do you ever get tired of winning?

                                                          What an honor to have you, the next President of the USA, and the father of the first woman to be President of the USA, Ivanka Trump. Thank you for your time tonight.
                                                          My question is simple as I've seen you make recent comments pertaining to student loan debt. Can you please elaborate on whether your initiatives on the matter include those of us that have graduated with degrees but are still struggling to wipe out our debt having just recently entered the workforce? Or will the program only include those that have yet to or currently are attending higher education institutions?

                                                          Just wondering if I'm going to be groped by the tax man at one end to pay for new school enrollees and tackled at the other end from the debt collector as I'm paying for my own schooling.

                                                          Mr. Trump,
                                                          Unlike crooked Hillary Clinton you have laid out viable America-first policies for fixing the messes that we find ourselves in today.
                                                          How will you overcome public apathy/partisanship, the influence of special interest, Congressional stonewalling and media demagoguery to actually implement your policies?

                                                          Mr. Trump,
                                                          Question highlighted below.
                                                          You gave another epic speech at the RNC, but I have reservations with "the law and order candidate".
                                                          That’s a given seeing as you are running against a criminal, but could you clarify? For example, during Hillary’s last failure in the White House, she pushed the “Tough on Crime” bill. She called her constituents “super predators” and the impact of the bill lead to cases like Ted Cruz prosecuted to the Supreme Court where a man stole a calculator and was sentenced to 16 years. It lead to fatherless children, some nasty policing practices, harsh sentencing for the poor and diverse, and high rates of recidivism: Hillary’s “prison to prison pipeline". This isn’t law and order, but apparently, that’s what it means to Hillary - as long as she isn’t the suspect.
                                                          I understand that Obama has made some terrible leadership decisions in regards to prosecuting certain criminals, and he was just as heartless as the Clintons when it came to prosecuting marijuana. To pander to Bernie supporters, Hillary will apparently “look into” decriminalizing/legalizing marijuana. Being that it had been an issue during their first stay in the White House, while she was a senator, and Head of State, suggests it takes Hillary quite a while to look into it, long enough for 15,000,000 arrests for marijuana to take place.
                                                          As the law and order candidate, what will you do to address America having the world’s highest incarceration rate (apart from Seychelles, population < 90k), thanks, in part, to Hillary Clinton?
                                                          Thank you.

                                                          I'd love to see a response to this one.
                                                          Rand Paul has been explaining the problem of kids being introduced to "the system" and never escaping for years, and as someone currently living in the hood, but not raised here; the crime problem is much more simple in cause, but complex in scope than many of us could imagine.
                                                          Avoiding charges on kids and young adults for actions like marijuana possession, or the loss of a driver's license for not paying child support is often a deciding factor in whether or not these people ever wake up and turn their lives around when they grow out of their early 20s.

                                                          Mr. President, as recent weeks have shown the policies of open borders advocates produced deadly consequences in Europe and elsewhere. Do you have a message for Europeans concerned about illegal mass migration and the terrorism and security issues this process seems to generate ?

                                                            Dear Mr. Trump,
                                                            Your 2016 campaign has been absolutely revolutionary in part due to your business background, branding genius, experience with the crooked media, and tremendous wealth. These are all very unique among politicians. Do you envision future republican leaders as increasingly needing this skill set? In short, do you think your campaign will go down as a phenomenon or as the model for a new political era?

                                                            Mr. Trump, thank you for taking time out to speak with us here. I’ll try and keep my inquiry brief, but my question for you today is related to foreign policy.
                                                            I find it to be very interesting that so many people look at Russia as a problem country that must be dealt with instead of a country that should be at the forefront of leading Europe and Asia. Part of your campaign has touched on doing one of the many things that Obama could not do: improving foreign relations with Russia. In your opinion, what should be done to help strengthen our bond with a country like Russia to make us stronger allies and help work together to bring stability to the Middle East?
                                                            Most importantly, I cannot wait to check the box next to your name in November and do my part to assist you in making this country the gold standard once again.

                                                            When can we expect to hear names of potential cabinet members?
                                                            When you are elected President, would you reconsider having the Department of Justice prosecute Crooked Hillary Clinton?
                                                            And of course, the question we've all been dying to know the answer too, do you, people from your campaign staff, or any of your children lurk among us on this subreddit?

                                                            1) If you had one political leader to choose as your role model, who would it be?
                                                            2) Which french presidential candidate do you support for 2017 ?
                                                            3) What is your position on open-source software?
                                                            4) How do you plan to help lower-income families? Some of them work very hard all year long and still get the minimum wage, which is clearly not enough for them to afford health care and higher education for their children, who represent the future generation.

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            We've heard you talk about the neighbor of the US to the south, what are your views on Canada?

                                                            Under your administration will there be more emphasis on states rights or ability to determine their own stance on many controversial issues such as gay marriage, marijuana, minimum wage. Will you run a small federal government and empower states?

                                                            Mr. Trump, I am German and german media doesn't really report much about the elections in the USA except for anti-trump and pro-hillary propaganda. I would have loved to see Bernie Sanders become the new President of the USA, but since that's not going to happen and Hillary seems to be corrupt and shady, I think the best thing that could happen to the USA is you becoming the new president. My question is, when you are the new president, what changes do you wanna make in the relations between your country, the European countries and the countries in the middle east?

                                                            Gov Pence is very strongly anti-abortion and anti-LGBT rights. Prior to choosing him as your VP, you did not seem to have strong views on these issues, or even more tolerant views than the GOP establishment. How should voters think about your stance on these topics now?

                                                            Mr. Trump, with the national debt rising to over 20 trillion dollars, we can no longer afford to keep putting it behind for future generations to solve. What are your short term and long term plans to address solving this potential disaster.
                                                            Also, is there anything you would like to say to help convince anyone that is on the fence about you, from super strong conservatives who just need a little more convincing, to liberals who just can't stand Clinton but haven't wanted to support you yet?

                                                            So we know Debbie Wasserman Schultz was the co-chair of Hillary's 2008 presidential run where she lost to Obama. So in order to lock down the nomination for 2016, Hillary had to get DWS in charge of the DNC and manipulate it from the inside.
                                                            In order for this to work, they would not only have to get the DNC chair to step down, but recommend DWS for the position. The Clinton's would have to promise something to that person. Something more prestigious than being the head of the democratic party. So what would they get.....?
                                                            According to http://rulers.org/usgovt.html#parties the person who stepped down and recommended DWS was no one other than...

                                                            Dear Mr. Trump, as a WWE Hall of Famer would you be open to be featured in a WWE video game? To be honest i'm kinda surprised it hasn't happened yet. Last years game had the likeness of Arnold Schwartzanegger, and I think the only way to top that is by adding The Man himself.

                                                            Mr Trump,
                                                            There has been tremendous concerns about mrs Clinton's health on the past week.
                                                            We all know she suffered for a stroke , a couple of years ago. But since last year, she has been especially avoiding any stressful situation/ loud situations, as someone afflicted with "le petit mal" would do.
                                                            She hasn't appeared in a public speech for six weeks, hasn't had a press conference in 200 days, is only heard through a through a twitter account she doesn't directly handle and finanally refused to debate Bernie.
                                                            According to whatever intel you have: How sick exactly is Hillary Clinton, and is she physically fit to be president?

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            Thank you for taking the time to do this AMA. I'll be upfront and say that I am not a supporter of yours. That being said, I am very open to reasonable political discourse.
                                                            While I consider myself lucky to have work and a high level of education, I am faced with a number of issues not generally discussed.
                                                            1. Benefits for the self-employed are difficult. Do you support the separation of insurance and employment? And, what steps would you take to ensure those without traditional employment have access to health care?
                                                            2. I am a biomedical scientist-engineer by training. Are you satisfied with the current levels of federal grant funding available? And, what specific plans do you have regarding academic and corporate-sponsored research?
                                                            3. Self-employment taxes are high. What steps will you take to reduce the tax burden of the self-employed? (who pay the highest marginal tax rate)
                                                            4. Despite living in categorical poverty, I did not receive a large amount of federal or private support for my education. This forced me to take on a significant amount of student loans. Income-based repayment has helped, but is not enough. What options do you support for reducing the burden for high capital, low-wage student loanees? Do you support discharge of loans via Chapter 7 bankruptcy?
                                                            5. Most discussions are set around those living in urban and suburban areas. What will you do to support those of us living in rural America?
                                                            Thank you!

                                                            We firmly believe Hillary will try and steal this election through vote fraud, especially given recent events. What is your campaign doing to ensure that we have a fair election? Voter fraud is always a serious concern and authorities must be vigilant from keeping those from voting that are not authorized to do so.
                                                            What role should NASA play in helping to Make America Great Again? Honestly I think NASA is wonderful! America has always led the world in space exploration.
                                                            A program meant bring truly exceptional talent to America has been twisted by globalist politicians and corporations, allowing low-cost, short term labor to steal jobs from everyday Americans and take everything they learn back to their home countries. Will you curb H-1B abuse and make sure visas are going to people who want to become American, stay American, and make America great? I have put forward a detailed plan for H-1B reform to protect American workers which can viewed on the immigration paper on my website. My plan is the exact opposite of Crooked Hillary Clinton.

                                                            What is your plan for reducing or removing the influence of money on politics? Keeping Crooked Hillary Clinton out of the White House!
                                                            Mr. Trump, as a self-employed young American, my health insurance costs have skyrocketed under Obamacare. Paying close to $300 a month with a $6,000 deductible is a challenge as I try and grow my business. What will you do as President to ensure that myself and others can not only enjoy the security of having health insurance, but also afford to keep it? One of the first things I will do is to repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare. I will put forward an amazing new plan, which will include many reforms, such as letting people buy insurance across state lines, increasing choice and competition, and bargaining for better, cheaper drug prices.

                                                            Questions Answers
                                                            We firmly believe Hillary will try and steal this election through vote fraud, especially given recent events. What is your campaign doing to ensure that we have a fair election? Voter fraud is always a serious concern and authorities must be vigilant from keeping those from voting that are not authorized to do so.
                                                            What role should NASA play in helping to Make America Great Again? Honestly I think NASA is wonderful! America has always led the world in space exploration.
                                                            A program meant bring truly exceptional talent to America has been twisted by globalist politicians and corporations, allowing low-cost, short term labor to steal jobs from everyday Americans and take everything they learn back to their home countries. Will you curb H-1B abuse and make sure visas are going to people who want to become American, stay American, and make America great? I have put forward a detailed plan for H-1B reform to protect American workers which can viewed on the immigration paper on my website. My plan is the exact opposite of Crooked Hillary Clinton.

                                                            What is your plan for reducing or removing the influence of money on politics? Keeping Crooked Hillary Clinton out of the White House!
                                                            Mr. Trump, as a self-employed young American, my health insurance costs have skyrocketed under Obamacare. Paying close to $300 a month with a $6,000 deductible is a challenge as I try and grow my business. What will you do as President to ensure that myself and others can not only enjoy the security of having health insurance, but also afford to keep it? One of the first things I will do is to repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare. I will put forward an amazing new plan, which will include many reforms, such as letting people buy insurance across state lines, increasing choice and competition, and bargaining for better, cheaper drug prices.
                                                            How will you, as president, tackle this protected class of media elites without stepping on the first amendment rights of average Americans?

                                                            Hello Mr Donald J Trump,
                                                            I am going to be a future educator of social studies (still can't find a job) and as things are right now, today's youth seems to disrespect the teaching profession and it seems that society as a whole does not appreciate America's teachers anymore. Teaching is one of the cornerstones of society and I believe society should pay more attention to it. Better teachers means a better American foundation and future!
                                                            What is your plan concerning America's teachers?
                                                            I appreciate your time to answer.

                                                            Hillary hasn't driven a car since 1996.
                                                            I wish you guys would push this as it shows how disconnected she has from regular Americans.

                                                            You've mentioned that you don't think the government should be making profit from student loans. I currently have student loans through the government and I'm repaying under Obama's income based repayment. My interest rate is 6.75% and my loan balance has only gone up after 4 years of repayment. Will you change the rules so I can refinance at a more reasonable interest rate?

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            I read Tai-Pan about 8 years ago and towards the end I thought we need Donald Trump as president. I'm excited that you are so close to taking the reigns. When the young man rushed you on stage I was concerned. I feel like you need to be placed into a pope mobile or have a force field around you. Please tell us why you should not be placed into a glass cage for your own protection!

                                                            I voted for Bernie in the primaries, but with him out I'm unsure of who to vote for. Hillary's platform is more something I want but she seems like someone who will lie through her teeth to get office. You on the other hand, hold many views that I don't agree with, but seem much more truthful about your plans. Why should I vote for you over Hillary clinton?

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            This isn't a question, but I just wanted to use this opportunity to tell you thank you, and to not give up what you are doing. I come from Youngstown, Ohio, an area that has been devastated by our nation's disastrous trade policies. I was fortunate enough to get a good education and make it to Wall St., but for my family and friends and my community, they were no so fortunate. They are, like you correctly identify, the forgotten men and women in America. They have no advocate and the elites in the rest of the country sneer at them for being backwards, for not having the luck to be born in our nation's upper middle class. For so long they have been waiting on a champion, and now you are fighting for them.
                                                            At times, I imagine you must be tired, that the constant attacks must get to you, that you must want to quit and wish this all away. But on behalf of them, please don't give up Mr. Trump, please keep fighting. Thank you for fighting for them. We're with you!

                                                            President Trump,
                                                            One of the most glaring examples of Obama not being the person he said he was is his excessive and aggressive prosecution of whistle blowers in this country. My question is what are your thoughts on the laws protecting those who expose the corruption and immorality of our government from within? Even if sometimes they will be detrimental to those who work under you.
                                                            Another question I have is we are beginning to structure the future for what we are now calling our Digital Identity. What are your thoughts for the future of what might become a massive part of oneself, I believe we need to fully wrap it in the clothes of freedom in order to protect ourselves from whatever oppression the future brings.
                                                            In addition I agree with you about bolstering our intelligence overseas but I worry about what that means for American's right to privacy. Should an American living inside our country's borders have the peace of mind to know the government is not looking at what we are doing online unless they have been issued a warrant?

                                                            What are your thoughts on milo yiannopoulos? For years now he's been standing up for free speech and cultural libertarianism against leftists. When you become president, will you consider hiring him as press secretary or any other position in your administration?

                                                            Dear Mr. Trump,
                                                            I like your campaign and find your non-PC tone refreshing.
                                                            You've stated that you are pro 2nd Amendment, but I have yet to hear strong views on the 1st and ESPECIALLY THE 4th Amendment from you.
                                                            Mass surveillance is the staple of police states. Our DNI (Clapper) committed perjury in congress and got away with it. I personally consider someone like Snowden a hero that informed us of our government spying illegally on law abiding citizens... just like Assange is informing us now of the nefarious activities of the DNC and Hillary.
                                                            With the Obama presidency we were promised transparency and instead received an administration that prosecuted more whistle-blowers than all other administrations combined while expanding the W Bush mass surveillance programs.
                                                            Would a Trump presidency fight for the rights of law abiding Americans' privacy or would it be pro Big Brother?

                                                            Do you acknowledge climate change?
                                                            If yes, what can we do, as a nation, to combat?
                                                            If no, why?

As much as the media wants to make fun of or denigrate us, we have good people in the Midwest who are waking up to just how much the Dems are leaving us, and how you embrace us. No questions, just wanted to say good luck, I know there are going to millions of people like me voting in a few months, for you. MAGA!

Do you plan on expanding other federal agencies that are spread just as thin, including the Secret Service and the DEA, in addition to ICE? Thank you so much for your time. I was proud to vote for you in the Florida primary and will be surely assisting in your victory in this state in November.

                                                            Donald, regarding your energy policy: will you consider investing in new nuclear designs, such as thorium powered plants? Nuclear had a bad rap, but if the fuel does not produce byproducts that can be weaponized, it can be cleaner than many alternatives.
                                                            Thanks,

                                                            Donald just wanted to stop in and say thank you. I know you won't see this, but your campaign and revolution has breathed a much needed new air into this corrupt system. Thank you for exposing the real frauds for who they are. You give people something to believe in. I believe in our chances with you at the helm.

                                                            Mr.Trump
                                                            My family comes from Hispanic descent. I constantly hear them worry about your campaign, as they feel that they are in danger of discrimination because of the wall. How will you convince Hispanic voters like my parents that the wall will not cause any sort of racism towards them, and how do you plan on winning the Hispanic vote overall?

                                                            Mr. Trump. There is a lot of issues with how children with special needs are served in the public school and for home based services. When you become the president of United States, will you promise to appoint an expert in this field and take parents' opinions on how to built a great system for children with special needs?

                                                            Mr. Trump, I have a less political question for you, and more of a personal curiosity. I was told recently that my Great-Grandmother grew up in the small village of Tong, near Stornaway, on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland, and became very good friends with your mother. Apparently, as I've been told my my grandfather, your mother even asked my Great-Grandmother to come to New York with her, though my Great-Grandmother declined. Did your mother ever speak of a Melba MacLennan?

                                                            Throughout high school I applied to many restaurant jobs only to find out the majority of the kitchen staffs were illegal immigrants. What is your plan for business owners who continue to employ illegal aliens and pay them less than minimum wage in cash, robbing America's youth of employment opportunities? God bless.

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            I am great friends with someone who works in civil service. They have told me that the ineptitude, even at the highest levels, is remarkable. It takes years to fire people, contractors are chosen based on donor status and not qualifications, and there is no imcentive for the them to innovate and work hard.
                                                            What measure and reforms will you put forth on government employees to ensure that our taxpayer dollars are paying the salaries of people who actually do their jobs?

                                                            Hi Mr. Trump,
                                                            My name is Harper Neidig and I'm a reporter for The Hill newspaper in Washington, DC.
                                                            Some questions I have:
                                                            -A couple weeks ago we reported that your campaign solicited donations from foreign leaders as recently as July 12 — two weeks after an FEC complaint was filed by nonprofit watchdogs Democracy 21 and the Campaign Legal Center. What measures, if any, has your campaign taken to ensure that it doesn’t solicit money from foreign politicians?
                                                            -Do you support the criminal justice reform movement in Congress that seeks to roll back mandatory minimum prison sentences?
                                                            -Earlier today you said you hoped that Russia would find and release Hillary Clinton’s missing emails. How do you respond to those who have called this statement treasonous or have called into question your loyalty to the U.S.?
                                                            Thanks in advance for your response.

                                                            Mr. Trump, I am a member of the lgbt community and a very strict conservative. As you might know that is a very tough label to bear. How will you help mold the republican presidency into one that fixes what Obama and the democrats have done for the community. Do you have any plans to correct the damages done (for example the new laws for transgender equality in the bathrooms and workplaces, something very important to me as a transgender person). How do you plan on making the country United under a common goal, instead of what has been done to tear it apart with the so called 'equality' that has been spread by misguided democrats?
                                                            I have serious deep respect for you and how you stood up for us at the convention, and I look forward to a country United under a common goal. Thank you for any responses!

                                                            President Trump, do you plan on visiting San Bernardino anytime? I feel that this city needs unity, there's no sense of pride, there's a lot of rampant crime, and there's political corruption within our city. Many people here just dont care, its a run down city, and even shortly after the December terrorist attack most people just didnt care or treated it as one of the any crimes we have here. I'm just hoping you can maybe bring up these topics and try to unify San Bernardino and all of America. Hispanics for Trump. MAGA.

                                                            Mr. Trump, I'm lucky enough to be born and raised in the same neighborhood as your father, Woodhaven Queens. There's a bar in the neighborhood named "Neir's Tavern" that was founded in 1829 and its the oldest bar in New York.
                                                            It saddens me to see old historic landmarks that have been around for so long get ripped down and replaced with another deli or a T-Mobile store.
                                                            My question is probably not the biggest priority on your list, but would you have any plans on preserving historic landmarks that aren't officially certified (like Neir's Tavern)?
                                                            P.S. I was in the front row at your rally in Poughkeepsie, it was such an honor! Only at a Trump rally do you hear people chanting USA USA USA!

                                                            Mr. Trump, what is your reasoning for not supporting net neutrality?
                                                            Do you really think that ISPs should be able to restrict access to websites that compete with their own services, rather than provide equal access to all websites?

                                                            I think you really strike a chord with undecided voters when you talk about how the system is rigged. What is you opinion of lobbyists and it's role in american democracy?

                                                            I live in NY, and my first memory of you is being near Wall Street and seeing you on the sidewalk (around 1996), I called your name and you waved back! :)
                                                            My question is what is your defense to people who attempt to call you a misogynist? As a woman, I've admired you ever since seeing how friendly you are, and I want everyone to know how their false narratives aren't going to fool us!

                                                            Mr. Trump, This is a question asked by /u/stackingcans who was unable to be with us tonight. What do you plan to do to ensure the polls aren't rigged or compromised? And if evidence comes out they were rigged or compromise, how would you proceed? Thank-you from all of us, sir. You are a scholar and a gentleman :)

I am putting my trust in you to lead us in fixing the problems of our great nation. How can we fix the problems of the Social Security "borrowed funds" that jeopardize the average Americans' retirement planning.

                                                            Mr. Trump, the schools of our nation are often underfunded, sometimes severely. What are you going to do to make sure that all of our nation's schools receive the funding necessary to provide our future generations with the education that they deserve from the best country on the face of the earth?

                                                            Mr. Trump,
                                                            Today you mentioned that students are under tremendous pressure because of student debt. I plan to attend law school next year, but the thought of the student debt I will acquire is terrifying. What are your plans to help students suffering from the crushing debt of college?

As a physician, this is a very important issue. As president, how would you fix our broken health care system?
