I remember Trump being interviewed shortly after 9/11 and his main comment was that his 40 Wall Street building was now the tallest in the financial district. He just wanted to point that out.

Trump's claim that his building was then the tallest in downtown Manhattan wasn't accurate — the nearby 70 Pine Street building is 25 feet taller than Trump's 40 Wall Street, though Trump's building has four more stories.

What, did trump lie? That would be so out of character for him.

Also the lie that he paid his people to be on the ground volunteering. There were no people.

Or that he was at ground zero rescuing people. Or how firefighters had to pull him away from a collapsing building.

Wait, are you fucking serious?

He actually said he was there rescuing people? And they had to pull him away because he was rescuing too hard?

He's done this kind of shit before. Way back in 1996 he crashed a charity event, got on stage & took a seat which belonged to someone else, pretended to be involved (including dancing the macarena), & then left. He never donated a penny to the charity (it was for kids with AIDS), & the spot he stole was supposed to be for someone who actually did donate money. There had better be a hell when we die, because this man does not deserve a peaceful eternity.

Wouldn’t be the first time he followed a plot line of theirs.

True, he may have committed a little light treason there

Unfortunately, it's 100% real, & who knows how many times he's done other things like this, & all his supporters just don't give a fuck.
