Journalist: You were recorded talking about grabbing women by their pussies. Can the American
people trust you to respect women and their rights?
Trump: "Listen, nobody respects women more than I do. NOBODY."
Journalist: "What is your position on climate change?"
Trump: "We just can't know for sure that humans are responsible for the changes in weather - or even if there are any changes. Top scientists have shown me cutting
edge research, you better believe it."
Journalist: "You won't release your
tax documents, your companies have
gone through multiple bankruptcies, and you were only able to start your company because your
father gave you a
7-figure loan. What makes you 'an exceptional businessman?'"
Trump: "I got a very modest loan - which I repaid in just a couple years - and turned it into bie-yons of dollars."
Journalist: "You have not given us any proof that your assets are worth billions. And if your company really does have billions in assets, does your company also have billions in liabilities?
Trump: "I would not he running for president if my company was failing."
Mom: "You smell like smoke and I found a lighter in your
pocket yesterday when I did your laundry. Are you smoking cigarettes??"

Dad died from lung cancer, I would
never risk my life to smoke. Nobody respects their body more than me. NOBODY."
Mom: "YOU WILL NOT use Trumplogic while you live under my roof. You are my
son and I do not have to tolerate that kind of bullshit."
