KATE SNOW (HOST): The slogan is “Make America Great Again.” As someone who believes in Donald Trump and is working for him, what do you want that America to look like? What America are you talking about when you say “Make America Great Again” like it was before, what era are you looking back to?

MARK BURNS: Well, you know, I'm not gonna -- again, I'm no political pundit. I'm a pastor whose simple message is bring the love of God to this world, bring this country back to God, bring God back to this country. But the kind of America I would like to see is one that do give reverence back to god. Number two, where there's an economic boom, where people have jobs, where like Mr. Trump said yesterday over 59 percent of African-Americans are unemployed. They are unemployed. They don't have jobs. We have to -- and when you don't have jobs, it creates a frustration that no oozie, no gun could ever stop. When someone can't feed their child, or they can't pay their mortgage, that becomes an issue.

And so Donald Trump knows I'm not going to tap dance for your vote, but I'm going to deal with the issue that's going to really bring change to your community, and that is to bring jobs back to this country, make it really difficult for companies like Carrier to leave and go to Mexico, but to keep them here in America. You're not going to leave America, take the jobs with you, rape us so to speak and then profit off of the hard working people of this country without having jobs. Mr. Trump knows that is the real issue that is plaguing the social problems of this country. So, we're not going to tap dance, tiptoe, walk on egg shells, focusing on feelings. We're going to focus on the facts.
