In a video posted at Twitter, Republican presidential candidate and front-runner Donald Trump was asked what he would do on his first day in the White House, the real estate mogul answered,
“The first thing I’d do in my first day as president is to close up our borders, so that illegal immigrants cannot come into our country. We have tremendous problems. We owe 19 trillion dollars. We don’t know what we’re doing. Everything is falling apart. People can come into our country, but only legally. I will close up those borders.”
Trump also answered a few more questions such as what would be his priorities would be as president, Trump said he would bring down heath care costs, “strengthen the border,” bolster the military and “take care of our veterans.”
When asked for advice on how to be successful in business, Trump said, “you’ve got to love what you do more than anything else,” and “never, ever give up.”
The video was part of a Twitter event organized by the Trump campaign for voters to ask questions. Trump then got this question from Silence DoGood:
@realDonaldTrump, will you forgo the presidential salary if elected? #Drump #Election2016 #AskTrump #Politics
— Silence DoGood (@Modern_Do_Good) August 29, 2015
His response was straight to the point although he had to throw a little NFL football information in there at the end but most got what he meant.
“I won’t take even one dollar. I’m totally giving up my salary if I become president,” Trump said in a short video posted to his Twitter account as part of a question-and-answer session at Twitter’s New York headquarters.
