Trump: 9/11 Way Worse Than Pearl Harbor Cuz ‘Great People’ Were Killed, Not Just Soldier

On Monday, Donald Trump made a quick stop in Buffalo to get one last dig in at veterans before the New York primary. In a speech meant to pander to what he referred to as “New York values,” Trump declared that 9/11 was the worst attack in our nations history (and he remembered not to call it 7/11 this time).

Still, it wouldn’t be a Donald Trump speech without him finding the most callous and horrible way to say something. So he was quick to clarify that 9/11 was worse than Pearl Harbor because civilians died, not just military.

“This was the worst hit that our country has ever taken, worse than Pearl Harbor, because when they attacked Pearl Harbor at least it was military. This was civilians. These were great people. Everybody in this room practically knew somebody that died or somebody that was horribly injured during that terrible day.”

1. I think that's more akward than heinous (ack I'm defending Trump). nt

2. Think of the repercussions if any other politician said something like this.

Trump is getting away with comments that would get other candidates crucified. I can't wait until this brain-dead egomaniac is off the stage.

3. What he said about McCain was worse.

This too shall pass.

4. Clearly the idea that "regular" Americans might know soldiers is a foreign concept

I mean, military service is for poor people and other losers. Am I right?
