Trump claims that after 9/11, "I went down, I was building a building in New York, and I went down there very shortly thereafter -- the following day, you couldn't go down the same day -- and we worked long and hard"

Donnny boy was on live TV bragging that his building was now the tallest in NY. He forgets that we actually exist and watch the bs he’s spouted for 25 years. @jd-vance-1.bsky.social @whitehouse-47.bsky.social @jaketapper.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social
I was at work on a call w my BF when the 2nd plane hit & I screamed. When I said there was a 2nd plane, he said to leave work, he was turning around from Fort Lauderdale & would pick up the kids. He said it was terrorism and downtown would not be safe if there were cells in South Florida activating.
Well, he did go down there a few days later--and apparently lied even back then that he had "his people" helping clear the rubble. bsky.app/profile/chri... He's been telling this lie for 25 years, and there has never been any evidence supporting his claim. www.newsweek.com/fact-check-d...
Paywalled, but might be useful (The Washington Post fact checker, 2019): www.washingtonpost.com/politics/201...
Another way to verify would be through the WTC Health Program that monitored people exposed to the rubble in the aftermath: www.cdc.gov/wtc/eligible... If he was there as long as he said (and certainly his workers), eventually someone in that group is making a claim for health related issues.

Just like King Richard named all the toilets in the kingdom “John”, so too should the next POTUS name all federal toilets #Trump Only fitting for a narcissistic bastard who wants his name on everything youtu.be/FUAQkNVdQNg?...
I was 10 blocks away when the World Trade Center was attacked with a bomb in 1993. NYPD told Guiliaini don't put the emergency command center in a place that is a target. Giuliani ignored them. He used to use the command center at 7 WTC for sex with Ms. Nathan, I had friends who worked in City Hall.
Trump's pal made things worse. He stored diesel against code at 7 World Trade Center, that building burned/smoldered for months, large black ashes in the air. Electric cables were run on the street. Trump did shit downtown. www.nytimes.com/2008/01/26/u...
Canal St. (I wrote Chambers, Chambers is further south). I remember the checkpoint on Canal Street near the post office. I showed my driver license (which had my address, that was further south) to a NY State Trooper so I could get home, that was more than a month after the attack at that checkpoint
The only thing Trump did at the time was call in to brag that he now had the tallest building on Wall Street as reporters fawned over him as a "visionary". www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcKl... bsky.app/profile/atru...
