Donald Trump on Biden: ‘I Wonder Why He Didn’t Speak’ for 9/11 Anniversary
Breitbart ^ | September 11, 2021 | CHARLIE SPIERING

Posted on 09/11/2021 3:44:20 PM PDT by conservative98

Former President Donald Trump visited with police officers and firefighters in New York City on Saturday and questioned why President Joe Biden decided not to deliver a speech to recognize the 20th anniversary of 9/11.

“Biden didn’t even speak today! He went to all three places and he didn’t speak,” Trump said. “I wonder why he didn’t speak”:

The former president visited the precinct to thank officers for their service, spending much time criticizing Biden’s disastrous exit from Afghanistan.

“He turned victory into a total embarrassment; I say the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country,” Trump said.

The former president said he watched some of the other speeches from 9/11 but noted that no one was talking about Biden’s failure.

“They’re trying to do speeches without mentioning what happened over the last two weeks, and that’s a very hard thing to do,” Trump said.

He accused Biden of surrendering to the Taliban in the war for political reasons.

“I think he wanted to run because he wanted to look good today,” he said, pointing to the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

I think they know they messed up with the divisive angry Covid speech he gave on Thursday and his incident where he just wandered off from the podium on Friday at some school while his wife was speaking. He is an idiot, but his handlers or at least intelligent and can see what is happening.

I wonder if some of the hackling he has gotten recently in the chance at sports stadiums factored into this decision by his handlers.

Yeah. He's not allowed to speak out in public. Only in a controlled setting like at the White House or at his home in Delaware.

I wish that Trump could have risen above taking a shot at Biden on this 20th anniversary of the WTC destruction.

I agree. It's red meat for the base and people would eat it up at a rally. But talking to fireman at a memorial for their fallen comrades ... he should have kept comtemporary politics out of it.

Then again, Bush equated 'right wing extremists' (uniparty code for "Trump Supporters") with Al Queda and ISIS today. So I guess there is no place that can avoid this stuff these days.

Given what this anniversary is about I think Trump should have been silent. He can go back to criticizing biden on 9/12.

Nope.

He was just interviewed by Gutfeld on Fox and said that there should be NO Mandate.

It is very odd the sitting US president would not publicly speak on the anniversary of 911. To the best of my knowledge for the last 19 years they have always made a speech.

Had he spoke, I don't think he would have been heckled - not out of respect for Biden, but out of respect for the solemn occasion that was being observed. His handlers, however, did not want to take a chance on him going off script and saying God knows what if anyone did say anything while he was speaking.

Bidens mentally incompetent and has been even before he ran. Everyone who voted for this dingbat also knew it.....and they’re all responsible for for putting this corrupt and completely dysfunctional people in office. Including Congress for allowing it.

“ Biden would have said the first responders were terrorists
Bush did today, at least any of them that are conservative.“

He sure as sh!t did. They all did. The whole gang Same line. Harris. All of em.

Bush wouldn’t go near WTC where he promised 20 years ago he would fix this.

People say it’s gone, the resolve. They didnt see The fire guys today Trump just 20 seconds at the firehouse.

Everyone with different sets of facts. And all the dictators up there getting broadcast via media yammering about how bad Americans are. Bush, Harris, H!, blah blah blah.

And Trump shows up inside a firehouse uniting the fire and police. No camera jus someone’s cell phone one minute and all the alternate media audience will know about it. Lots of love a thirty second bite.

Deplorable New Yorkers (best of the best)

What are you people talking about?

You think the firefighters don’t see that 20 years after Bush promised us through them at that pile that he would take care of this and 20 years later at the commemoration Bush is no where near after this illegitimate administration and the pentagon gave the victory back to the enemy plus weapons and ammo. And Bush Never said a word?

You think that every single person in NY is a disgusting lukewarm amoral uninformed democrat voting wimpy lemming

Look at that video of trump and just stop

George W. Bush, what you should have condemned today was Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan surrender where Americans and allies remain hostages, and the grave national security situation in which he left our country; or condemned Obama, for his release of 5 of the worst Taliban terrorists on the planet, 4 of whom are now running the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. But he didn’t have the guts to do either. And too bad he didn’t condemn the violent extremism our nation experienced all last summer.

Still not a peep from DJT on the Biden vaccine actions that I have heard about. It seems that can only mean that DJT supports them. Why isn’t he out there condemning them?

Come on, Rev. Trump just spoke on it and said Biden is only promoting mandatesniw to get people to stop talking about the most incompetent withdrawal from a war site in history.

Well if that is all he said then it is quite meaningless. He needs to condemn it in the strongest words. Yet we all know this is one of the bad things about Trump. He loves those vaccines.

Because as the illegitimate potus, Biden would have been booed and heckled.

Precisely. There s a video on Twitter of Biden in NY today running over to sweet talk a child in the crowd and a bunch of people are calling him a disgrace for Afghanistan and one keeps telling him not to sniff the kid.

In New York City.
