Rudy Giuliani forgets about 9/11
In 2010, Giuliani repeatedly said that the US saw “no domestic attacks under Bush”.
Giuliani added, “They all started when Clinton and Obama got into office”.
The contention also willfully forgets the 1993 World Trade Center attack as well – an attack also carried out by “radical Islamic terrorists”.
The mixups have raised concerns about a bump seen on Giuliani’s head recently, but the Daily News points out the former mayor similarly said there “no domestic attacks under Bush” in 2010.
He did not mention the terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001 in NY, when more than 2,900 people died. But he didn’t lie so egregiously as he did today, reflecting what appears to be a clear agenda of the Trump campaign: distort the truth and lie about history as much as possible until you yourself believe it to be true.
Giuliani has made his career off the deaths of those 2996 people who died on 9/11. We don’t want this war, they do. They do. And they didn’t start it even in 2001.
But while his phrasing was misleading, no, Giuliani did not rewrite history to delete the worst foreign attack on US soil since the War of 1812.
“While Donald Trump was building a reality TV show, my brother was building a security apparatus to keep us safe”, Bush said, ignoring the 2,996 people who died on september 11.
In the same speech, Rudy told the OH crowd that they were about to be greeted by their own governor. Pence is not governor of Ohio-that would be John Kasich-but the governor of Indiana.
Rudy Giuliani stands up for Trump – again.
“The World Trade Center came down during your brother’s reign – remember that”, Trump charged during a February debate, after his former opponent repeated the line.
In 2010, on USA morning talk show Good Morning America, Giuliani claimed: “What he [Obama] should be doing is following the right things that Bush did – one of the right things he did was treat this as a war on terror”. “If Donald Trump was going to say something like that, he’d say something like that”.
