Donald Trump on 9/11: "You Will Find Out Who Really Knocked Down The World Trade Center"
Real Clear Politics ^ | 2/18/16 | RCP

Posted on 02/18/2016 8:38:36 AM PST by gridlock

At a Wednesday morning campaign event in Bluffton, SC, Donald Trump takes his relitigation of the Bush administration's record on 9/11 and Iraq to the next level, seeming to imply that we don't currently know who "really" committed the 9/11 attacks.

Trump says if he is elected: "you will find out who really knocked down the World Trade Center."

"It wasn't the Iraqis," he explained. "You may find it's the Saudis."

"They have papers in there that are very secret," he also said, referencing the 28 still-classified pages of the 9/11 commission report. "But you will find out."

He sounds like Rosie O’Donnell which is why I don’t understand why they’re not the best of bud.

He wasn’t president, and was hindered by the lack of being able to blink his eyes like Jeannie and making it so. Obviously.

I wonder if he becomes president will he become more orange or less orange?

The crazy Uncles in the closets of our great supposed friends the Saudis of course, but that is not said because our government feels we need them.

Who Really Knocked Down The World Trade Center

Human nature did.

What are the moral ideological principles Trump has in mind for conserving the framework of governance, constituted by America's founders, to constrain that nature and "SECURE THESE RIGHTS" from those who game it for profit?

The Donald could say that he personally knocked down the TC and his fans would come up with some reason that it was a good thing.

IIRC, Ms Jaime Gorelick was on the 9/11 commission. An obvious conflict of responsibility since she was, as Deputy AG, responsible for erecting the ‘wall’ between the CIA and FBI before 9/11.

This bitch later went on to reap millions of dollars and bonuses as a head in Fannie Mae along with cohorts Franklin Raines and James Johnson at Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, respectively, that ushered in the crushing debt, equity loss and indebtedness the taxpayer continues to be responsible for the aftermath of the mortgage debacle that ushered in Obama.

If he can come up with this, why didn't he ever find any of Barack Obama's life documentation.

Because there isn't any!

That war was all about controlling WMDs in order to prevent them from falling into the hands of terrorists.

Actually WMD's was just one of the items listed in the IWR (Iraq War Resolution), there were 9 items IIRC.

From Global Research:
While the United States is close allies with Saudi Arabia and Qatar, it is well established that the chief financier of extremist militant groups for the past 3 decades, including Al Qaeda, are in fact Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Do you suppose Trump is MIHOP or a LIHOP?

>> Daddy and son were way too close with that backward regime.

Consider that relationship in the context of what Ike tried to war people about:

But 9/11 was not one of them.

But here is Trump saying we invaded Iraq because of 9/11.

What up with that?

I think Trump is correct. The Saudis had much more of a role than what was ever considered by Bush admin. Daddy and son were way too close with that backward regime.

You are lying. /s
