The TRUMP GIRL
特朗普女孩

燕山大学刘立军宋葳编写

PARTS OF THE TRANSCRIPT

QUESTION 1: Why did you support Mr. Trump?

And then, there was this guy. He talked about all the issues we are facing, all the problems. OK, that's normal. Every politician does that.

Then, something extraordinary happens -- he said how to fix them. And you know, that is amazing, no politician ever said how to fix them.

QUESTION 2: Does anybody in your school against you for supporting Mr. Trump? What did they say to you?

Lots of kids in my class do. Mostly the six graders do a lot, you know.

But then they say, oh, it's the Trump girl! Stuff like that. But you know, I don't let it get to me.

QUESTION 3: What are the major problems you see in this country?

Immigration. You know, I love immigrants if they come here legally. LEGALLY! I don't like the word illegally. I like legally.

If they're not gonna do that, we have to put some precautions.

Education. The teacher's union controls everything.

And I heavily support school choice.

QUESTION 4: Did your parents get you involved in politics?

I told her to vote for Trump, she needs to vote for Trump. She didn't listen to me. That's okay. But now, after the primary, she realized the mistake she did.

QUESTION 5: What do you want to be when you grow up?

I'm gonna graduate from Penn State University, be in the army for 5 years, be a police officer, be a homicide detective, be a detective, be a private investigator.

I will have the hobbies like egyptologist and astronomer. And then I will retire, become a judge. And then, if the country really needs me, I will run for the president.

QUESTION 6: How do you run for president?

I don't know the way I'll run for president, because I don't know what the politics will be like when I grow up. Maybe, something will change.
