Donald Trump Hosts Largest “Ask Me Anything (AMA) Reddit” in History

During a flight between Pennsylvania and Ohio candidate Donald Trump hosted an AMA Reddit. A social media engagement opportunity for people to write in questions to the popular site Reddit, and have candidate Donald Trump answer them directly:

...

Trump has been an Internet phenomenon since announcing his candidacy in 2015, and Reddit has served as a kind of hot spot for dialogue about his ideas for his fans. Trump, who was flying from an event in Scranton to an event in Toledo during the session, was delayed at the start of the event, and replied to questions slowly.

He touched on issues of the police, visa reform, the Affordable Care Act and voter fraud.

“Voter fraud is always a serious concern and authorities must be vigilant from keeping those from voting that are not authorized to do so,” Trump said in response to a question about the potential for rigged voting machines in November.

Several users expressed concern that the media and government were colluding to interfere with Trump’s campaign, and block him from winning the presidency. Trump said that he was concerned about the “dishonesty of the press,” and praised “new media” as a way to get out the truth.

Cool that he did that. I would have asked is Hillary his boss and, if so, how well does that job pay?

I respect that this site is pro trump but I am perhaps the tonic that helps the gin go down. I feel a repeat coming of that awful moment when the dingleberry was anointed, appointed, whatever. I was reading brave new world revisited at the time, and Huxley wrote that when a candidate is sold to the masses in the same way a deodorant stick is, that country is done. Well, we’ve been done a while now. I would love an honest answer to the question, and know I’ll never get it explicitly. But the proof is in the pudding, so, I’ll know when the results are in. My old bet is still standing with zero takers. For all the talk nobody wants to put their money where their mouth is. $100 says Dawg wins. Now that we are thoroughly divided by race, sex is next, and Trump isn’t right for the role.

Our views are strengthened by being challenged, Iron sharpens iron, Etc.

I hate the Dawg. Doesn’t mean I don’t see how the acts are progressing, and where this all is preordained to end up. The writers are not that good.

Hope I’m wrong. But if I’m 86’d it’s a proof that I’m right.

Even though the Reddit front page is supposedly determined by a popularity algorithm, the Trump thread never made it to the top despite having tens of thousands of votes and being by far the most active thread on Reddit at the time.
The algorithm, i.e. Reddit moderators, removed it from the Reddit front page entirely and promoted an obscene anti-Trump drawing with much lower popularity to #1.

answer to your question - no, Trump is not for sale and the only thing he’s ‘marketing’ is the steel of cold, hard truth

cryptology is a rusty subject for me, so if you can spit out what you are really getting to, in conversational English, please do so

as to iron sharpening iron:

Iron can only sharpen iron under two conditions: both are identical in composition (carbon content) AND one is heated and one is not
or
One Iron has a different composition (carbon/impurities) than the other and the stronger one can sharpen the weaker one but not vice versa

Yeah, which is why you predicted Trump would get this far. Which is why Obama came out of nowhere and beat her. Which is why they had to dodge a vote to get her in in her own convention. Which is why they have to constantly stack the polls and throw everything they have against Trump 24/7 and he laughs at every one of them. Which is why she spends millions and sinks in states where he doesn't spend a dime and rises.

"Preordained" my @ss. You don't know squat. You're a paid FUD shill, and you're not even good at it. Get lost.
