Donald Trump mistakenly refers to 9/11 as 7/11 in speech gaffe during Buffalo rally
NY Daily News ^ | 4/19/16 | Alfred Ng

7/11, 9/11, it’s all the same to Donald Trump.

The billionaire — who never visited the Sept. 11 Memorial & Museum in lower Manhattan until months after his campaign kicked off —seemed to have briefly forgotten the date the terrorist attack happened.

“I wrote this out, and it’s very close to my heart,” he said at the First Niagara Center on Monday night during the rally. “Because I was down there and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7/11, down at the World Trade Center right after it came down. And I saw the greatest people I’ve ever seen in action.”

And the fact that you are involved in Politics at all shows how utterly destroyed the system is as you Trident yourself as someone who needs to be medicated. YOU are the reason America is not great anymore.

We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Sorry for the typo establishment Cruzlim. Can’t wait to help fix the problems people like you created and end your gravy train.

So what is the designation “Cruzlim” supposed to mean exactly?

I think it's a shorthand for "Cruzistinian."

The date must be changed to comply with the Will of Trump.

Henceforth, 9/11 shall be known as 7/11. The attack always happened on that day.

Anyone who says otherwise is a liar.

I would rather be a Cruzlim, whatever that means, than a Branch tRumpidian, like you.

You need to fix yourself, which would be a full time job, before attempting to fix anything else, which I doubt you're even capable of.

Clearly, Trump is not fit to be President of these 57 United States.

Just something for the media to make fun of Trump about.
Bill O’Reilly, who hardly ever tweets, also jumped on it like it was a breaking story. Ever notice how O’Reilly likes to talk to Trump like a kid when he’s “interviewing” him and takes nothing he says serious. The next guest up he’ll have a good time agreeing that Trump should “act more presidential” whatever in the hell that is.

How ridiculous and paranoid are you. Ted Cruz (who has made his own speaking gaffes that the Trumpdebaters gleefully pounced upon) did not make Donald Trump say the wrong thing and this is reported in the far Leftist New York Daily News, certainly no part of the Cruz Fan Club.

Your paranoia is showing.

I really like that.

BTW I was there when he said “7-11” but he had that crowd in a frenzy and he just kept going and they let him.
Great time was had by all—except about a dozen or so that had to be dragged out.

If you have ever spoken at length extemporaneously, you would know that those of us who do so, frequently make minor mistakes, such as this. It is no big deal—and certainly not worth losing the spontaneity that speaking extemporaneously provides by reverting to a written text. The audience understands what you mean by the context. I have no idea why you posted this bit of absolute trivia. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3422096/posts
