Analysis | A brief history of Trump making 9/11 about himself

Over the years, President Trump has used the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to push falsehoods, attack political opponents and credit himself.

A trip down memory lane, if you like: Trump justifies holding a rally in Illinois after an attack on a synagogue in Pittsburgh by telling a lie about the World Trade Center, NYSE, and 9/11.

I'll never forget this story of Canadian friendship on 9/11.

Gander, population 10k, opened their tiny airport to hundreds of grounded flights and took care of 7k Americans on 9/11.

On 9/11, a tiny Canadian town opened its runways and heart to 7,000 stranded travelers

Thirty-eight planes carrying thousands of passengers landed in Gander, Newfoundland. The town’s response was astonishing.

And here's Trump in Shanksville, PA in 2018.
Still embarrassing.

And here's Trump on the campaign trail talking about literally clearing rubble at ground zero after #september11

(I know it's shocking but...this is a lie.)

And here, Trump says he was down at World Trade Center/Ground Zero with first responders.

PS: This, too, is a lie. In fact, he did a photo op down there.

Once.

Do you remember who *was* at the World Trade Center/Ground Zero on 9/11?

That's right. The email lady.

Here's Trump talking *on 9/11*, while the towers were literally still falling down, about how his building is now the tallest one in Manhattan.

And here's Trump lying about how he saw "thousands and thousands of people" (he means Muslims), CHEERING on #September11 while watching the #twintowers at the World Trade Center fall.

"We have 100 men down here..."

Has anyone ever spoken with *any* of the "men" Trump is referring to here? No? Because they don't exist.

Also, stepping out of a limo 1/2 mile away from ground zero and giving an interview doesn't count as "helping". https://twitter.com/TheClearCider/status/1304377661930733568?s=20
