President Trump lied again about 9/11, claiming today that "I was kinda a 9/11 first responder." Eighteen years have passed and he continues to peddle falsehoods about that tragic day. What follows are sone truths:
The morning the towers fell, Trump didn't rush to the scene. He rushed to get on TV to brag that he now owned the tallest building in lower Manhattan
Trump also claimed he saw Muslim crowds in New Jersey cheering the NY terror attack; there is absolutely zero evidence this occurred; he also claims he lost “hundreds of friends” on 9/11 (he provided only ine name) and that he helped clear rubble afterward
Trump also stiffed 9/11 charity efforts - after promising that he would contribute
And as President, Trump - incredibly - has quietly made you and your family less safe by gutting post 9/11 security programs - that help detect and prevent terrorism involving weapons of mass destruction (first reported in L.A. Times)
