      I find it so disappointing to see this type of attitude from you and other commenters. The billionaires of America love this great nation and simply want to enjoy their vanity campaigns without any of this cheap 'gotcha' nonsense of asking direct questions about things like policies or positions. Why did Krystal keep asking him about that? Is she in love with him or something???? Was really weird to witness. I watched the full interview and by the end I had absolutely no confusion about where he stood on literally everything they asked him about. At long last, America has a chance to vote for an authentic, unscripted man of the people who truly cares about ALLl Americans. And I hate to bloviate but I must add: Krystal's questions were incredibly violent and disrespectful, plus I find her incessant nagging for answers to be highly problematic. This is a teachable moment for her and I hope she reflects on how she fumbled this interview and how she can improve her skillset moving forward. She's lucky she didn't try this tacky nonsense on Mitt or Jeb... they wouldn't have stood for that kind of funny business.

      Yeah, to do well in an interview like this, you just tell people what they want to hear. Political candidates that do well are the ones that are fake. They give all the right answers before being elected and then do none of it after.
      Sometimes the answers we want to hear aren't the best answers.

      For some issues, it may be more effective to split the questions between generations. Example: Social Security? (Boomers/some Gen X) "Should we cut SS?" / (Millennials and under) "How long will they have to work?".......Millennials don't care about SS because they won't have it.

      I think their main issue is the fact that they're unnecessarily rich as opposed to rich. And conservatives want the opportunity for hard work to be paid off and get rich. That's why they're right wing. Ultimately, the right wants a certain level of standards for each citizen as well as capitalism.

    Yikes. He's my governor and this was painful. I even *sort of* worked *for* him. After he sold Great Plains to Microsoft, I worked at Microsoft in Fargo,. He had an office at the end of the hall and ate in the cafeteria with us. All that said; Come home Doug. It's not going to happen.

    Imagine putting yourself through college on a chimney sweep's wages today. These are the people against relief. Pull that ladder up faster.
    Edit - I said that really early in the video ... and then he hit the nail in the coffin acting like its even possible to do what he did today for any reasonable amount of people.
