Trump’s Claim That Firefighters Carried Him to Safety After 9/11 Is Disputed

Date:

Donald Trump has claimed that firefighters carried him to safety shortly after the September 11 terrorist attacks in New York City, a statement that contradicts documented accounts from that day. Contemporary records, including archival media broadcasts, show that Trump was in Midtown Manhattan at Trump Tower during and immediately following the collapse of the World Trade Center towers. While Trump made public appearances near Ground Zero in the days following the attacks, public records and first responder testimonies provide no evidence that he was present during the collapses or required evacuation by rescue personnel.

  • Donald Trump claimed that firefighters carried him to safety following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in Lower Manhattan.
  • Archival broadcasts from September 11 show Trump conducting telephone interviews with news outlets from Trump Tower, located miles north of the World Trade Center.
  • Historical records and photographic evidence show Trump visited the Ground Zero area several days later, but do not show any record of him being rescued or evacuated by first responders.
  • Observers and fact-checkers have noted this is one of several conflicting statements Trump has made over the years regarding his presence and activities following the 2001 attacks.

  1. That video of him at ground zero is total BS! I was a ground zero rescue worker 3 days after 9/11 and you could not be near ground zero without a respirator. In fact you needed a respirator weeks after the attack, so Trump yet again is a LIAR!

  2. Just a few days ago when Trump cancelled attending 9/11 memorial because he would not be allowed to speak, many including me, joked that he should be allowed to speak. And he would tell us how he rescued people from the rubble with his bare hands

  3. I can't believe that the lefty media is wasting time trying to prove that his strory is false. The main thing is, it happened. An unprecidented terrorist attack on the American people we will never forget.

  4. I thought Trump was saved from the top of the tower by a Pegasus decked out in stars and stripes and that he personally lead the war against terror and that he killed Osama and, and, Nobel Peace Prize, and, and . . .
