Discussion: Oops: Trump Mistakenly Refers To 9/11 As '7-11' (VIDEO)

He watched. That’s important! If he hadn’t watched the whole thing, who else would tell Americans the truth about what happened seve-, uh nine-seve-, uh, that day? If wasn’t there watching to see it all happen, you might not know! And the way our media is so unfair, really, you probably wouldn’t even’ve heard about it.

I have to imagine there are eyewitnesses and someone has to have a vivid memory of seeing a personage so famous, so vast, so important, so orange amid all that gray dust…

Funny, I never heard that one. I’d always heard them use it to claim that Obama was dumber than W and/or a foreigner who doesn’t know anything about America.

“I’m pointing at you, Lyin’ Ted.”

WHY would he say 47 states? Really…just asking.

First of all, he was spent, had been on the road a long time with little rest. Here is the video, as well as the always competent snopes breakdown


He started to say 50 states, but then realized he had one more mainland state after Oregon, and he also realized (and said) Alaska and Hawaii were not on the agenda. So he had been in 47 states, but since he had started to say 50, he said 57. No big deal, but that’s what he said.

That’s why to me this particular Trump story means nothing. If you mix up your kids names, it does not mean you don’t know their names. We all have done stuff like that. I can however see it being problematic if you are making love to someone and call them the wrong name. That’s when an honest mistake can really cost you…
