Trump visits the “Economic Club of NY”

At the Economic Club of New York, Trump entertains questions. Here is a sample question with his answer:

Q-If you win in November, can you commit to prioritizing legislation to make child care affordable and if so, what specific piece of legislation will you advance?

A-Well I would do that and we’re sitting down you know I was uh somebody we had uh Senator Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka was so uh impactful on that issue it’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about that because look child care is child care it’s couldn’t you know it’s something you have to have it in this country you have to have it, uh but when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to but they’ll get used to it very quickly and it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Uh, those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about including child care that it’s going to take care we’re going to have I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time coupled with, uh the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country because I have to stay with child care. I want to stay with child care but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about. Including growth but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just uh that I just told you about. We’re going to be taking in crillions of dollars and as much as child care uh is talked about as being expensive it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’ll be taking in. We’re gonna make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of it’s people and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people. But we’re gonna to take care of our country first. This is about America first it’s about make America great again we have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation so we’ll take care of it. Thank you, very good question, thank you. [Hearty applause]

Everyone involved in this spectacle should be embarrassed. From the “Club” to the person asking the question to the answer to the Republic Party. Such a total embarrassment.
