During a speech at the Pentagon on the 18th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Pres. Trump said he 'vividly' remembers first hearing the news on that morning in 2001.
President Donald Trump shared the most detailed account of his actions on the morning of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
He went on to say his view of the attacks was shaped by more than just news coverage -- but what he saw with his own eyes. "Soon after, I went down to ground zero with men who worked for me to try to help in any little way that we could. We were not alone. So many others were scattered around trying to do the same, they were all trying to help," he said Wednesday.During a campaign stop in Columbus, Ohio, in November 2015, Trump also said he was in his Manhattan apartment, but he went further Wednesday and said he could see people jumping from the towers.
"I've never seen anything like it -- the devastation, the human life that's been just wasted for no reason whatsoever. It is a terrible scene. It's a terrible sight. But New Yorkers are very strong and resilient, and they'll rebuild quickly," he said in that 2001 interview.
