Trump Touts His Competency Versus Bush 43: ‘World Trade Center Came Down During His Time’
Breitbart TV ^ | 10/16/15 | Pam Key

(snip)

Exchange as follows:

STEPHANIE RUHLE, host: In order to be the president of the United States, you have to be a leader. We have not seen your soft hand. We have seen your offense, but George Bush had to stand in front of America after 9/11, Barack Obama did after Sandy Hook. Help us understand who Donald Trump is as a man. I need to know that you will make us feel a safe and you will make us feel proud.

TRUMP: I think I have a bigger heart than all of them. I think I’m much more competent than all of them. When you talk about George Bush—I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time.

RUHLE: Hold on. You can’t blame George Bush for that.

TRUMP: He was president, OK. Blame him or don’t blame him, but he was president. The World Trade Center came down during his reign.”

I'm sure those comments make Alex Jones aficionados very, very happy right about now (particularly considering how the son of their icon Ron Paul is doing in the polls)

It is fact it came down during GWB’s reign. Other than that, I blame the Saudi’s that we hold hands with and suck up to.

Why is that?

I did not take it that he means Bush caused the attack happen in a false flag way.

Trump's comment about Bush was quite mild compared to what he said about Obama in the same interview.

"If you look at Sandy Hook, those people are still begging for help. It is a disaster all over the place. Government has proven to be a disaster during the Obama Administration. What we need a leader. We do not have a leader."

Exactly. This is a lame attempt by the media to get conservatives who know the truth angry.

Bush let his Saudi pals who funded the attack fly home while Americans were grounded.

Right! Since the vast majority of the 9/11 attacker’s were Muslims from Saudi Arabia, Bush really took it to the Saudi’s and shut down Islam as a world military force! And the Bushes had nothing to do with the Clintons after that because they were so mad at Clinton for missing the cues. Eventually, you realize that it is a Uniparty of elites that are bent on world dominance and who think they can use Islam as the “enemy” to do fool the sheeple into accepting that.

I’m not surprised, considering liberal Donald Trump has said Bush was the worst president ever and Clinton his favorite of the past 4.

That’s not good. I am troubled with his healthcare stance, and things like this. Overall, have been impressed. Things like this are little tiny red flags.

He did let Saudis fly out.

I take it to mean that had we had someone competent in the White House, like Donald Trump, then 9/11 would never have happened. I'd say that's the height of arrogance but with Trump it'd just be redundant.

You are a bit behind the times. Liberalism isn’t liberal anymore - it is now conservative if Trump says it. Planned Parenthood does good things and Trump will defund “the abortion part.” “Universal Healthcare” is now a good thing, in addition to praise of Canada’s single-payer system. Kelo v. New London Connecticut was once believed to be one of the worst SCOTUS decisions from the modern era - now it is a good ruling. Calling for powerful Federal agencies to sensor your critics is good - shows “guts.” Lecturing “You conservatives” that we’ll “just have to get used to it” when comes to the government “taking care of everybody” is also good.

Could go on, but you get the gist. If you don’t support these things, you are now an establishment stooge hoodwinked by or working for the GOPe.

“It is fact it came down during GWB’s reign. Other than that, I blame the Saudi’s that we hold hands with and suck up to.”

What I blame Bush for is that he decided to go after Sadam instead of those “fat f—ks” in Saudi Arabia, and for all this “nation building $hit!” It is quite likely that the seeds of 911 were planted during the reign of Slick Willie the First, but when I think of all the blood and treasure “W” pi$$ed away, I get livid. He stirred the ME “hornet’s nest,” and handed “clean up” to an illegal half-breed. We all now see just what a mistake all of it was.

Trump stated a fact, a true fact that 911 happened on W's watch, what the hell is wrong with stating a damn fact?

The World Trade Center came down during his reign.

I hope that Mr. Trump doesn't intend to "reign" over his "subjects" if elected. I suspect that he is just being Trump, but "term" would have been a better choice of words.

How do you twist that into an Alex Jones like statement? I’m curious.
