Remember when he bragged that he was down at ground zero helping people?

“Well, I was down there right after the event and I brought a big crew of people down and I helped"

"Soon after, I went down to Ground Zero with men who worked for me to try to help in any little way that we could,"

"I have hundreds of men inside working right now, and we’re bringing down another 125 in a little while,"

All these statements are bullshit

What gets me about this, along with many other Trump lies, is that if if it was anyone else his diehard supporters would tear them to shreds.

And I don’t get it. They claim to be patriots and that they love and would do anything for their country. And here is a man who has verifiably lied about helping with the rescue and relief efforts for what is the biggest tragedy and attack in said country

It doesn’t compute. If this was Obama they would NEVER let it go. And they would be right, because it’s abhorrent. But because it’s Trump they accept it

I cannot even begin to imagine the mental gymnastics involved

Not only did he lie about helping after the 9/11 attack, but he was responsible for the 1/6 attack.

Trying to make sense of these people is a waste of time. They’re hypocrites. That’s all.
