Trump on 9/11: He Got This One Right

“But I don’t recall hearing the kids say ‘Burn America.’ If anything they were probably saying Burn something, but not burn America”, she said.

“So we’re leading in New Jersey big, we’re leading in Texas big, we’re leading in Ohio, beating the hell out of this guy (Ohio Gov. John) Kasich, who’s awful, bad debater, terrible”, Trump said.

“We made history today”, Scott said. “I think what he’s doing is exaggerating”.

Vaughn said she thought that was the end of it, but it wasn’t.

Further, he told Trump that “if he wants to have our ear as a community, to at least tone down the rhetoric some kind of way, tone it down”.

“I saw it at the time”. “I don’t know anything about the flyer”.

Pullings, who has not endorsed Trump, wanted to clear up the fact that a majority of the pastors share his views despite Trump’s campaign promoting otherwise. “That’s when his staff interrupted and said, ‘Why should he, why this why that, ‘” Couzens said. But he continued, “I would be very hesitant to give a number”. “This was a get-played moment”, Vaughn said. “They were celebrating that the towers came down and some of the kids in the housing development got really upset about it, and they came in and did a pretty good job of beating them up”. The event even led to some dust-ups on Twitter between ministers.

In another tweet, Trump posted a video of WABC radio host and Guardian Angels founder Curtis Silwa references cheering following the 9/11 attacks. Parson said he was in “total support” of Trump. “No one was angry or upset or anything of that nature”. He also backed supporters who tackled a Black Lives Matter protester at a Birmingham, Alabama rally.

“So they’re going to influence their congregation”, explains the BOND leader, “and if those people go with Trump, not only is it over for the Democratic candidate, it’s over for the Democratic Party”. He then added, “we voiced concerns that were sensitive to the African-American community”. Despite rumors, Thomas said the pastors asked for a private meeting with Trump. Should you say thousands were? No.”.

Among several polls regarding voter preferences for minorities back in September, Trump had anywhere between three and 25-percent of the black vote.
