Weird. I just found something Trump "wrote" for Time Magazine in 2007.

I remembered this story from years ago. For no particular reason, I thought of it and looked it up. I found this surprisingly coherent tribute to a true hero and my eyes nearly bugged out of my head when I saw who wrote it (well, an aide probably wrote it under his name).

This was shortly after he got into a ridiculous public feud with Rosie O'Donnell. He was craving some good press, I suppose?

I remember when I first heard about Wesley Autrey and what he did on Jan. 2, 2007. It was an astonishing act of bravery and selflessness, and the fact that he was so matter-of-fact about it made it even more so. I knew then I wanted to help him and his family, and I was pleased that he agreed to come to my office to meet me and receive the $10,000 check I had for him. I wanted to meet a hero. What I met was a very unassuming man who felt what he did was simply the right thing to do. It was that simple to him. In reality, it was anything but simple. In case you're not familiar with his story, Autrey, 51, was waiting for the subway in New York City when a young man suffered a seizure and fell onto the tracks. A train was coming into the station, and Autrey knew the man would be killed, so he quickly jumped onto the tracks and covered the man with his body. Autrey does construction work, and he has good instincts about confined spaces. He realized there might be a chance of survival if he could keep the man still until the train passed. It passed over them with inches to spare, so close that there was grease on Autrey's cap from the train.

I have great respect for construction workers, and Wesley Autrey is a great example of why I do. They work hard, and every day requires courage. Autrey automatically became an influential person by merit of his extraordinary bravery, which I hope will encourage and inspire other people to follow his example.

2. It's this type of stuff that tells me he has

dementia. He couldn’t write one of those sentences now.

5. He could not write one of those sentences then. That's why he had a ghost writer nt

3. Probably written by Maggie Haberman's mother. nt

4. I concur. It's from a publicist. Paying $10,000 for the public goodwill is CHEAP.

It’s image-building. Remember, he was preparing for another publicity run for office at the time.

Like a celebrity endorsement, the good deed rubs off the brand.

8. JrDump got choked up driving by Arlington National Cemetery...

...all the rows and rows of memorials made him think of how much his dad had given up to be pee-resident.

Makes me choke up to think of them, for different reasons.

11. If it can be described as coherently written, Trump didn't write it. Have you read his tweets?
