Number of times I claimed to be at Ground 0 helping clear the rubble: 0

Number of times Trump claimed to be at Ground 0 helping clear the rubble: at least 2. Possibly more.

Got a link? I heard him on the phone with a reporter saying there had to be explosives because those towers were too strong to be brought down by fires, but I never heard him say anything about being at ground zero. If he did, I've got no reason to doubt him.

He did on Monday. Here is the entire speech from a Fox news feed. I've skipped the first 5 minutes of the speech as it's a lot of Opening Statement Blah Blah Blah along with a statement about the Garlic Shooting.

https://youtu.be/gbAza-rCo5o?t=302

He makes the claim at 5:30ish. The link should pick up at 5:01ish.

He also claimed to have "helped a little bit" to clear the rubble on 18th of April, 2016 during a campaign rally. Angelo Carusone captured the moment on his phone and posted it on Twitter.

Here's a news article from the Independent covering the same claim from that night: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-i-helped-a-little-bit-with-clearing-911-rubble-a6991761.html

Apocraphly, Trump has made that same claim many times in private conversations. There is 0 evidence to support this.

On 9/11 he did 2 TV interviews claiming to have hundreds of men down helping to clear the debris. There is no evidence to support this claim.

He also claimed to be able to see people jumping from the towers from his apartment. His apartment is over 4 miles away from where the towers stood.

I don't see any reason to believe he's lying about any of it. He seemed genuinely disturbed by 9/11.

By helping I'm sure he meant managing or consulting some people. I doubt he did very much to get his hands physically dirty for very long, he's not that type, but that's okay. People are best used doing what they're good at.

He lives at the top of Trump Tower right? 4 miles isn't that far from way up there. While staring intently at a catastrophe I'm sure he noticed a few things falling.

Again, no reason to doubt him.

Their TDS won’t allow them to do anything constructive, only cry. They complain when he says the sky is blue.

No, he said he was down there. Shifting rubble. He also said he sent his men there.

There's no record of that.

As much as a media hound Trump is- remember he went out of his way to do TV interviews that day- there's no photographic or eye witness accounts of him being anywhere near Ground 0. Or anyone employed by him.

He also claimed he lost 100's of friends in the attack.

There are no photos of him at any of the funerals.

Again, media hound and he's not jumping in front of 1 camera at all those 100's of funerals? The same guy who called into a radio show THAT DAY to brag about how one of his towers was now the tallest building in New York. That guy all of a sudden gets camera shy?

He's a liar.

You're not capable of admitting it but you know it. Inside you know he lies like breathing. You know he's being lying to you all along. But you can't admit it, because admitting it would mean you've been played for a sucker.

And no one likes to admit that.

No one.

Lol very dramatic conclusion.

Not posing for cameras at a funeral? Sounds like a man who knows what respect is.

No records of he or his men at work? I doubt people were worried about paperwork for several days after 9/11.

I know he lies. Everyone lies. Some way more than others. Trump is keeping his campaign promises so I can overlook him pretending not to know the crowd was chanting "send her back".

My parents lied to me all the time because they knew attempting to reason or explain things to my ignorant child mind was pointless. They still did what they believed was best for me.

It's about the content of the lies and the reason for the lie when it comes to politics. Trump is the most honost liar of any political figure ever. He does what's best for the country unapologetically.
