The original Washington Post article by Mr Kovaleski said that authorities in Jersey City "detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river".

Since Trump's claims about Muslim Americans celebrating 9/11, the reporter has said he does "not recall anyone saying there were thousands, or even hundreds, of people celebrating".

---------

The press has lied, because Trump never said there were thousands or hundreds of Muslims celebrating the destruction of the World Trade Center. He only used an analogy to indicate the term "tailgate" used by the The Washing post reporters signified there were far more than two such Muslim celebrants.

What is a good lie or two among friends. Trump does not make fun of handicaps. Trump makes fun of liars.

Exactly how did Trump mock him? I don’t for minute think Trump mocked his physical disability.

I saw Trump’s Myrtle Beach speech and he mentioned that article from the Post and the author. I think all he said was how they are acting like they never even wrote the piece. If he mocked that guy it was only in reference to the guy disowning his own story nothing else.

I bet Trump, like most of the rest of us, have no idea about any physical problems. Another Lying Hit Piece.

I would normally say that Trump is making a mistake defending this. It is true. There was film and it was on TV at the time. I saw it and it was said in the film that it was in Jersey City and Paterson. By defending he would seem to be making the error that Republicans always make and that is to defend against leftist charges and thereby validate them and make the charges the whole focus of the campaign. With Trump, I don’t know. He will probably just get more fans with it.

Really? Unlike his false claim, there is actually video of Trump saying this:

"Hey, I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering."

“...launching into an apparent impression of Mr Kovaleski, waving his arms around with his hands at an odd angle.”

Apparent? That looked like any impression of a panic’d human I’ve ever seen. Stammering and spastic.

The dishonesty is so transparent, the MSM do us a remarkable service with this negative marketing campaign, I mean “reporting”.

It’s so typical of the Left to use some member of a minority group to mount an attack while cowering behind their minority status as a weaseling means of blocking any return fire. The leftists began to obviously play this BS game during the 2008 Presidential Election, and they’ll keep on doing it until it stops working.

The MSM has lied for decades about Republicans, it’s just that Trump has captured the attention of the folks and he has a direct way of reaching them. Twitter works for him, because he uses it against those that try to sideline him. The folks are pissed off at any establishment...MSM, GOPe, and DC insiders.......the list goes on. Trump is not on that list, he is one of the folks. The elites can’t contain him. It’s refreshing to watch.

Sorry BBC, we here in the colonies don't discriminate against the disabled. All lying, slimy reporters are treated the same.

I have watched ten or a dozen or Trump’s speeches all the way through.

Trump ALWAYS does that spastic thing, and makes that identical face when he is ridiculing dishonest or stupid people.

This is a manufactured “gotcha” based on previous knowledge of this Trump style of ridicule. Someone realized that Trump could be maliciously framed by this.

This is that dreary leftist trick of making someone toxic, trying to get people embarrassed and cowed into not wanting to be associated with the target.
