MTV video debunks Donald Trump’s claim that Muslims celebrated after 9/11

“And the kids in the housing development came in and beat them up”, he said. “I should’ve communicated to them better”, Scott said.

Trump’s campaign didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

His staff began touting the event last week, saying it would provide a slew of endorsements for Trump’s White House run.

Trump stumbled on religous questions earlier this year when he failed to name his favorite Bible verse and said he couldn’t recall asking God for forgiveness. “We had meaningful dialogue with Mr. Donald Trump”.

“But Mayor Giuliani (who has been tireless and magnificent in this crisis) rightly warned New Yorker-ers that is would be wrong to take their anger our on the city’s Arab and Muslim residents”.

Once the list of those black ministers allegedly endorsing Trump was made public, there was even more skepticism – some from the ministers themselves.

“What Trump saw were news reports on television about people in New Jersey celebrating the fall of the World Trade Center”, Nolte said. “We will see. But I would not sell him short”.

Mr Trump leads the Republican race to be presidential nominee, two months before voting begins in the primary contests.

Pullings, who has not endorsed Trump, wanted to clear up the fact that a majority of the pastors share his views despite Trump’s campaign promoting otherwise. “Nonetheless, Donald Trump says there are a lot of people out there who verified the idea of his story”. Like his claim (lie) that “thousands and thousands” of American Muslims celebrated in New Jersey on 9/11, the entertainer believes that if he just insists upon something enough he can will it into existence, regardless of reality.

“He did not offer an apology in our presence”, Couzens said, “so I don’t know if he plans to apologize in the future, if he will or if he will not”.

The Scavino video shows Rather saying “they got on the roof…to look across – they knew what was going to happen”.

Trump himself said that the meeting was “amazing”.

“I won’t do the debate unless they pay me $5 million, all of which goes to wounded warriors or goes to vets”, he added, as he returned to his usual style, leaving the crowd laughing during his address.
