Donald Trump: 9/11 report excerpt will reveal Saudi Arabia's 'profound' role in the attacks

Source: Los Angeles Times

Donald Trump weighed in Tuesday on the reemerging debate over 28 pages of redactions in the 9/11 commission report and said he thinks the excerpt will show that U.S. ally Saudi Arabia played a significant role in the terrorist attacks.

“We attacked Iraq and frankly by attacking Iraq — they were not the ones that knocked down the World Trade Center,” he said on “Fox and Friends.”

Candidates in both parties, members of Congress and President Obama are engaged in an intensifying debate over whether to release the classified pages, in part because of proposed legislation over whether to allow 9/11 victims' families to sue Saudi Arabia for any possible role in the attacks. While Obama said he plans to wait on his decision until the director of national intelligence finishes a review of the information, lawmakers are pressuring him to declassify it.

Trump said the U.S. needed to release the papers a long time ago.

Trump is an unusual kind of broken clock. When he's right, he's really REALLY right. Wow.

Trump Uses Eric Garner’s Dying Words To Mock Mitt Romney; His Supporters Roar With Laughter

Source: Addicting Info

Republican front-runner Donald Trump decided a visit to New York would be a good time to try out his comedy routine by delivering a stunningly tasteless joke at the expense of a man who had been recently killed nearby by New York police.

“The last election should have been won, except Romney choked like a dog. He choked,” Trump said, before mocking Romney with his hands in a choke position.

Trump shouted “I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe,” mocking the last words of Garner, who died in police custody on July 17, 2014, when officers tried to arrest him for allegedly selling loose, untaxed cigarettes across from Tompkinsville Park.

The moment stunned reporters on scene, but what was perhaps even more surprising was the response Trump got from his fans. Rather than find the idea of aping the words of a man who recently died just a few miles away repulsive, the crowd of Trump-heads roared with laughter. The mockery was the funniest thing they had ever seen.
