Donald Trump Bill O'Reilly interview,
South Carolina Primary
"After the vote in
New Hampshire, there are five viable
Republican candidates: Trump,
Cruz,
Kasich,
Bush and
Rubio. The vote in
South Carolina will be on Saturday
February 20th, and already attack ads are on the air between Trump and Cruz. The race will be intense, as both Trump and Cruz vie for conservative votes and the three more moderate
Republicans desperately try to emerge. On the
Democrat side,
Bernie Sanders must get black votes in order to compete against
Hillary Clinton in South Carolina and
Nevada. He started his campaign for those votes last night, implying that
America unjustly imprisons those who are 'African-American and
Latino.' Sanders says he is a straight-talker, but not on this issue. The truth is that African-Americans make up 13% of the population in the
USA, but commit 37% of all murders. And 90% of black murder victims are killed by other blacks. You will never hear Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton say that.
The Republican candidates will not likely
point that out because it is politically incorrect.
It's much easier to cry racism than address the root causes of violent crime, which are a corrosive culture and the collapse of the traditional family. Most politicians will never tell you the truth about social problems, preferring to pander. Trump and Sanders largely won because they are seen as mavericks, outsiders who will dismantle a corrupt and inept political system.
That's the perception. We'll see what kind of reality both bring going forward."
Returning for another segment, Donald Trump laid out his positions on some key issues, beginning with our trade imbalance with
China. "One reason for this," he said, "is that they devalue their currency. China is the single greatest currency manipulator on the planet, and if they don't stop devaluating we are going to have to tax their goods coming in. Our president doesn't understand this, but I understand it better than anyone." Trump also weighed in on legal marijuana in
Colorado and
Washington. "The book isn't written on this yet, but there are a lot of difficulties in terms of illness. I would really want to think about what to do, I first have to see what the effects are. But I am in favor of medical marijuana." On another subject, Trump reiterated that, as president, he will find a way to deport more than 10-million illegal immigrants.
