Donald Trump's AMA Was 'Yuge!'

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump hosted an "Ask Me Anything" on Reddit on Wednesday night, and it immediately because one of the most popular AMA events in social media platform's history.

Trump received more than 24,000 questions from Reddit users, substantially more questions than were asked for President Barack Obama in 2013. The presidential candidate took the time to answer dozens of questions, which you can see here (warning: some of the comments from other users include vulgar or profane language).

Among the subjects discussed were foreign policy, the economy and tax policy, immigration policy, NASA, education, and his favorite past presidents. He was also asked to speculate as to why his Democratic Party counterpart, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, hasn't held a press conference since December of last year—a span of 236 days.

His reply was classic Trump: "Crooked Hillary Clinton will not do press conferences because she cannot explain her illegally deleted 33,000 emails, or her disaster in Libya, or her role pushing TPP (which she would 100% approve if she got the chance), or her support for a 550% increase in Syrian refugees, etc."

Trump also took a question from a Libertarian who is leaning toward voting for his party's nominee, Gary Johnson, but wanted to hear the Republican nominee's message to those considering a third-party option on the ballot. Again, the response was more classic Trump:

"Americans in every party are tired of our rigged system and corrupt politicians, and want to reform our government so it no longer benefits the powerful at the expense of everyone else. They know I will fix it so it works for them and their families. Hillary Clinton's message is that things will never change. My message is that things have to change, and they have to change right now. We have to change a foreign policy that has led us to one economic disaster after another, and an economic policy that has failed our poorest citizens. We will never fix a rigged system by relying on the people who rigged it in the first place. I am going to return the government to the people. Together, we will Make America Great Again."

For the record, he said his favorite past presidents include George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Ronald Reagan. And, in response to a perhaps-tongue-in-cheek question about getting tired of winning, he said:

"I am never tired of winning, and as your president I will win for you, the American people. I'm with you!"

After the AMA was concluded, Trump posted a photo from inside his personal jet with a laptop in front of him, and included the following message:

"I am off to my rally in Toledo! Had a great time answering questions on Reddit!"
