_Machine-generated by trump.fm on 2026-09-12T03:08:37.309Z (UTC): a model's reading of the day's posts, not his words. Its psychological terms describe the language, not a clinical assessment of him._

**Ten posts in 46 minutes to prove he was at Ground Zero — then a full night's sleep and a Dallas afternoon of borrowed praise.**

Trump posted twenty times, and more than half landed in one burst on the night before he flew to Dallas. A magazine story had questioned whether he was really at Ground Zero after 9/11, and he answered with ten posts in under an hour — one angry written rebuttal that included a crude personal attack on the reporter, followed by a stack of 2001 news clips and photos offered as proof, almost all with no caption at all. Then he slept a normal night, which is not always the case. The next day, from the Republican midterm convention in Dallas, the mood flipped: a link to a story about old FBI notes, praise for a friendly oil analyst on Fox, a military video about Iran, and a run of tribute films about himself in the half hour before he took the stage. The day's most alarming post wasn't anything he wrote — it was a produced clip he shared that urged Iranians to overthrow their own government.

ě# Daily Digest — 2026-09-09

## 1. Timeline, location, and the shape of the day

**Twenty posts.** The UTC day does not correspond to a single local day, and the distinction matters for every timing inference below. The first thirteen posts were published from Washington, D.C. on the evening of **Tuesday, September 8 (EDT, UTC−4)**, hours after commemorative remarks on the Ellipse. The remaining seven came from **Dallas on Wednesday, September 9 (CDT, UTC−5)**, where he opened the first-ever Republican midterm convention at American Airlines Center that evening.

Reconstructed in local time:

| Local | Posts | Content |
|---|---|---|
| 8:37–9:23 PM EDT (DC) | **10** | 9/11 presence rebuttal — one written post plus nine wordless exhibits and self-reposts |
| 10:24–10:25 PM EDT | **3** | Endorsement and primary-recap graphics, ~60 seconds apart |
| *(9h 35m off-platform)* | — | — |
| 7:00 AM CDT (Dallas) | 1 | Flynn/FBI link (`ts_117240971806030051`) |
| 8:41 AM CDT | 1 | Phil Flynn oil segment (`ts_117241367309466443`) |
| *(4h 48m gap)* | — | — |
| 1:29 PM CDT | 1 | Iran military propaganda clip (`ts_117242499665228266`) |
| 3:24–3:53 PM CDT | **4** | Anti-communism clip and three hagiographic films |

Nothing after 3:53 PM CDT — consistent with stage time that evening.

**The dominant structural fact of the day is authorship.** Only three of twenty posts contain language he wrote (`ts_117238282851088051`, authorship 0.95; `ts_117240971806030051`, 0.20 — almost certainly staff; `ts_117241367309466443`, 0.85). The other seventeen — fourteen analyzed media posts and three self-reposts of `@realDonaldTrump` — carry no words of his own. Eighty-five percent of the day is selection rather than composition. Every state, theme, and danger reading below that rests on media posts is therefore a reading of *curatorial* behavior, and should be weighted accordingly.

## 2. Psychological state

**Dominant state: grandiose** (10 of 17 analyzed posts), but the day is cleanly **bimodal** and the label understates the first block.

The night cluster is uniformly **mixed** (`ts_117238282851088051`, `ts_117238299718738295`, `ts_117238325555128194`, `ts_117238340876437989`, `ts_117238403314455411`), driven by a narcissistic injury of the *exposure* subtype: a New York Magazine report that no one recalled seeing him at the World Trade Center after 9/11. This is an attack on autobiography rather than on conduct or policy, and the post-level analyses converge on it being unusually destabilizing for a personality organized around narrative self-construction. `ts_117238282851088051` shows the classic mixed signature — persecution material repaired inside single sentences by grandiose compensation ("their approval ratings are at an All Time LOW, but mine are VERY HIGH!").

The Dallas block is almost purely **grandiose**, with a single **vulnerable/paranoid** interruption at 7:00 AM CDT.

**Transitions (3):**

1. **Mixed → grandiose**, `ts_117238466630932237` (9:23 PM EDT). The evidentiary sequence resolves into a trophy image — himself centered among first responders at the site. The wound closes; the material converts from proof into standing.
2. **Grandiose → vulnerable**, `ts_117240971806030051` (7:00 AM CDT). A staff-posted Just the News link on declassified Strzok/Pientka notes. Affectless, but structurally paranoid: a nine-year-old grievance retained without decay, advanced through Flynn as surrogate so the persecution claim can be made without the vulnerability cost of first-person complaint. The post-level analysis flags **grievance institutionalization** — an executive task force he controls producing the evidence, an aligned outlet reporting it, and his account amplifying it, forming a closed loop that reads to an audience as independent corroboration.
3. **Vulnerable → grandiose**, `ts_117241367309466443` (8:41 AM CDT). Trigger is external favorability: a Fox segment praising his Iran posture. The mechanism is *validation laundering* — he elevates an analyst who says his strategy is working, then annexes the authority by signing his own name to it.

## 3. Escalation

**No rage spiral detected.** The intensity curve has two separated local maxima rather than a ramp.

The day *opens* at its authored peak (`ts_117238282851088051`, intensity 0.78, rage 0.70) and then **de-escalates** across the next 46 minutes: 0.35 → 0.45 → 0.45 → 0.30 → 0.45 → 0.25, terminating in low-arousal graphics at 0.20–0.22. This is the notable clinical finding of the night block. Baseline for this injury class — per the `ts_117238325555128194` analysis, the same class one day earlier produced sustained ad hominem against a CNN anchor — is devaluation plus escalating capitalized assertion. Here the assertion was delegated to checkable documents and left uncommented. Argument by artifact.

The second maximum, `ts_117242499665228266` at 0.85, is the day's highest overall intensity but is not authored dysregulation: it is a produced propaganda clip published wordlessly. Aggression is curated, not emitted.

**Proportionality.** The night response was volumetrically disproportionate (ten posts, six of them redundant exhibits, in 46 minutes) but rhetorically *sub*-proportionate relative to his own baseline. The one clearly excessive element is inside `ts_117238282851088051`: a personal demolition entirely outside the argument — a named journalist renamed with a larval-insect epithet, attacked on physical appearance, and directed to expose confidential sources. That gratuitousness is the post's strongest pathological signal, and it is the reason the day's peak rage is assigned there rather than to the higher-intensity Iran clip.

## 4. Themes and obsession

**Theme obsession: yes.** Ten of twenty posts (50% of the day, 100% of a 46-minute window) address one subject: whether he was personally present at Ground Zero after September 11, 2001.

The density understates the perseveration. Three of the ten are **self-reposts of his own material** published minutes after the originals — `ts_117238301091179131` (00:41 UTC, duplicating the clip in `ts_117238299718738295` within the same minute), `ts_117238345561593751` (00:53), and `ts_117238467019560891` (01:23), the latter two re-boosting the text of `ts_117238282851088051` with footage attached. He re-amplified his own rebuttal twice inside three-quarters of an hour.

Themes across the full day, in order of volume: (1) 9/11 presence and autobiographical vindication (10); (2) electoral scorekeeping (3 graphics, including a "2 Wins – 0 Losses / Endorsements 100%" recap of the prior evening's primaries); (3) curated self-mythology (`ts_117242960191148705`, `ts_117242970009727578`, `ts_117243065120671432`); (4) Iran conflict and martial triumphalism (`ts_117241367309466443`, `ts_117242499665228266`); (5) Russiagate grievance (`ts_117240971806030051`); (6) domestic ideological enemy framing (`ts_117242953120113073`).

**Evolution.** Themes move from *defensive-historical* to *offensive-mythic*. The night is spent proving a fact about the past; the afternoon is spent circulating other people's accounts of what he means. Notably, the communion register present in the archival material — the 2001 clips center danger to workers and mass loss — is instrumental throughout: workers function as corroborating witnesses, and on a commemorative occasion involving mass death, the selected imagery centers him.

## 5. Contradictions

**Moderate.** `ts_117238325555128194` presents a 2001 clip in which he states "I have hundreds of men inside working right now"; `ts_117238403314455411`, twenty minutes later, presents a clip stating "I have about 100 men working down here" and "over 100 men." Both were selected the same night as a unified evidentiary package, and `ts_117238282851088051` certifies the package with "Everything I said was exactly accurate." The numeric drift is in his 2001 speech, not his 2026 writing — but the blanket certification is 2026, and it covers both.

**Minor.** `ts_117240971806030051` advances a persecution frame (a weaponized federal apparatus fabricating a record against his people) while `ts_117242960191148705`, nine hours later, endorses a portrait of a man whom challenge only strengthens — "Donald Trump seems to always get stronger with challenge... an absolute savage." This is a tonal rather than factual conflict, and the second post's words are other people's. It is logged because the vulnerable and invulnerable self-presentations were published within the same day, both without comment.

## 6. Hypomanic indicators

**Does not meet threshold.**

- **Volume:** 20 posts. No baseline distribution was supplied with this day's data, so no percentile is asserted.
- **Sleep window:** 9h 35m off-platform (10:25 PM EDT → 7:00 AM CDT ≈ 8:00 AM EDT). This is a normal-to-generous overnight gap and is the strongest single argument against a hypomanic reading.
- **Boundaries:** Earliest local post 7:00 AM CDT; latest 10:25 PM EDT the prior evening. **No post-midnight activity in either time zone.** No 2–5 AM window.
- **Burst structure:** Two sub-minute clusters (three graphics at 10:24–10:25 PM EDT; three videos at 3:24–3:29 PM CDT) and one sustained 46-minute barrage at ~4.6-minute intervals. Bursts of this kind are common in his baseline and, absent sleep compression, do not by themselves indicate hypomania.
- **Sleep deprivation: not indicated.** The overnight gap is intact and the daytime cadence is sparse (two posts across seven morning hours).

The night barrage is best read as **injury-driven concentration**, not elevated mood: it is monothematic, evidentiary, and self-terminating, which is the opposite profile from goal-directed hypomanic expansiveness.

## 7. Narrative arc

**Redemption.** Setback → comeback, executed in one arc across roughly nineteen hours: a press report attacks the credibility of his own life story; he answers with archive; the archive resolves into a photograph of himself among heroes; he sleeps; he wakes into a convention city and spends the afternoon circulating films that narrate the same movement in mythic form.

The structural echo is worth flagging. `ts_117242960191148705` is itself a formal redemption sequence — underestimated outsider, fire walked through, indestructible figure — and `ts_117242970009727578` ("So God Made Trump") supplies a nativity-and-appointment frame. He chose, on the day he needed to recover from an autobiographical challenge, artifacts whose narrative shape matches the day he had just had. The `ts_117242970009727578` analysis additionally notes mortality-salience management: the clip's nativity structure and superhuman-stamina fantasy, published at 80, six days after a false death rumor.

## 8. Event correlation

- **New York Magazine report on his Ground Zero presence** — *defensive*. Ten posts. Not in the supplied event index; reconstructed from post content.
- **25th 9/11 anniversary approach / Ellipse commemoration** — *amplifying*. Provides the occasion for `ts_117238466630932237` and lends borrowed solemnity to a media dispute that does not carry it on its own.
- **September 8 primaries** — *amplifying*. Three graphics, staff-consistent authorship (0.40–0.45).
- **First-ever GOP midterm convention, Dallas** — *amplifying*. The entire afternoon block functions as pre-speech self-inflation and audience priming; the 3:24–3:53 PM CDT run ends 
 shortly before he took the stage.
- **US–Iran conflict / Hormuz** — *offensive*. `ts_117241367309466443` amplifies, apparently without notice, a segment reciting gasoline moving $3.19 → $4.22 while calling the situation transformational, and presenting Iranian civilian food scarcity and currency collapse as welcome evidence of pressure. `ts_117242499665228266` escalates the same theme.
- **Declassified Flynn FBI notes (Just the News)** — *offensive*, via surrogate.

## 9. Danger

**Maximum: high** — `ts_117242499665228266`. Two independent grounds per the post-level assessment: an unqualified appeal for Iranian civilians to "take over your government," historically a precursor to unsupported uprisings; and the personalization of state violence as private vengeance ("our retribution against their ayatollah," "we will hunt you down... we will kill you"). No domestic target; no dehumanizing register.

**Elevated (3):**
- `ts_117238282851088051` — targeted harassment, not violence: a named journalist, a dehumanizing epithet, an appearance attack, and an explicit demand that she expose confidential sources.
- `ts_117241367309466443` — a head of state stamping his endorsement on regime-collapse triumphalism during an active conflict, in a clip tying the regime's survival to the midterm calendar.
- `ts_117242953120113073` — abstract domestic enemy framing ("defeat communism, socialism, and Marxism in America once and for all"); no named target.

**Stochastic terrorism pattern: not established.** The components appear — a named individual demonized before a mass audience in `ts_117238282851088051`, and a mobilization appeal in `ts_117242499665228266` — but they appear once each, against different populations (one domestic journalist, one foreign civilian body), and no post-level analysis identified a call to action against a domestic target. Four of seventeen analyzed posts at elevated-or-above danger is a meaningful concentration and warrants tracking, but the repetition-against-a-common-target structure that defines the pattern is absent from this day.

## 10. Cognitive assessment

**Severely sample-limited.** One substantive authored language sample exists for the entire day (`ts_117238282851088051`); the second written post is a bare verbatim headline with no first-person voice, and the third is a two-line caption. Fourteen analyzed posts produced no assessable language at all.

Within that one sample, the post-level read was **stable presentation** with three flags: (a) **"Hagerman" for Haberman** — a name substitution explicitly marked for longitudinal follow-up rather than same-day interpretation; (b) a **mid-sentence self-interruption**; and (c) **tangential drift** into unrelated electoral grievance, plus an overdetermined, kettle-logic rationalization of his Pentagon-ceremony absence, which the analysis reads as defensive load rather than cognitive failure.

**Complexity trend: not computable.** One scoreable sample cannot establish a within-day direction, and no trend is asserted here.

One methodological asset: the archival clips (`ts_117238325555128194`, `ts_117238403314455411`, `ts_117238340876437989`) constitute dated **age-55 speech baselines**. Perseverative repetition and numeric drift are already visible in them. Any future longitudinal claim about drift in current speech should be scored against these, not against an idealized baseline. The repeated phrase in the `ts_117238340876437989` transcript is a speech-to-text artifact and was correctly excluded from scoring.

## 11. Claims and limitations

Eleven discrete checkable claims were identified across the three written posts and the primary-recap graphic. Two are assessed as false or contradicted by the record: (1) the blanket certification "Everything I said was exactly accurate," which the posted evidence does not reach — the footage establishes presence on at least one occasion and does not address the broader account, including the construction-worker claim; and (2) the implication of total Flynn exoneration in `ts_117240971806030051`, which the post-level fact-check contradicts with two sworn guilty pleas and no judicial finding of fabrication. The approval-ratings assertion in `ts_117238282851088051` is **unverified rather than false** and is not counted. No per-post veracity scores were supplied, so no day-level average is reported.

**Principal limitations.** (1) Eighty-five percent of the day is wordless, so most state and theme inference rests on selection behavior, which is weaker evidence than authored text. (2) Three posts have no commentary at all; they are counted and timed but their content is not interpreted beyond the transcript excerpts provided. (3) The UTC bucketing merges two local days and two time zones; all sleep and cadence findings above use the local reconstruction, not the UTC span. (4) The two "peaks" of the day sit on opposite sides of the authorship line, and conflating them would misrepresent the day as more dysregulated than the evidence supports.

### Narrative

A setback-to-comeback arc executed across roughly nineteen hours and two cities. The day opens in Washington with an autobiographical injury — a press report that no one recalled seeing him at the World Trade Center after 9/11 — and he answers it not with his usual escalating invective but with a 46-minute barrage of archival evidence: ten posts, nine of them wordless exhibits or self-reposts, offered as proof and left uncommented. The sequence de-escalates rather than spirals, resolving into a trophy photograph of himself among first responders, then three low-arousal endorsement graphics. A 9.5-hour off-platform gap follows. He wakes in Dallas for the opening day of the GOP midterm convention, where the register inverts: one surrogate grievance link about the Flynn FBI notes, then laundered praise from a Fox oil analyst, a high-danger military propaganda clip on Iran, and finally four films in half an hour that narrate his life as legend, ending shortly before he took the stage. The day's most striking feature is that he wrote almost none of it — three of twenty posts carry his own words — so the arc is built by curation, and the artifacts he chose in the afternoon tell the same redemption story his morning had just lived.

### Dominant themes

- 9/11 presence and autobiographical vindication (rebutting the New York Magazine report) (1 post)
- Electoral scorekeeping and endorsement validation (1 post)
- Curated self-mythology and hagiography (pre-speech priming) (1 post)
- Iran conflict and martial triumphalism (1 post)
- Russiagate grievance advanced through a surrogate (Flynn) (1 post)
- Domestic ideological enemy framing (anti-communism) (1 post)

### Contradictions that day

- [ts_117238325555128194](https://trump.fm/post/ts_117238325555128194): Archival clip he selected states he had "hundreds of men inside working right now" at the World Trade Center site.
  vs. [ts_117238403314455411](https://trump.fm/post/ts_117238403314455411): Archival clip he selected twenty minutes later states he had "about 100 men working down here" and "over 100 men."
- [ts_117240971806030051](https://trump.fm/post/ts_117240971806030051): Persecution frame: a weaponized federal apparatus fabricated the record against his people, a grievance retained without decay for nine years.
  vs. [ts_117242960191148705](https://trump.fm/post/ts_117242960191148705): Endorsed portrait of a man whom adversity only strengthens — "Donald Trump seems to always get stronger with challenge," "an absolute savage."

### Cognitive concerns

- Name substitution: "Hagerman" for Haberman in ts_117238282851088051 — flagged for longitudinal follow-up, not interpretable from a single instance
- Mid-sentence self-interruption in the day's only substantive authored sample
- Tangential drift within ts_117238282851088051 from the 9/11 dispute into unrelated electoral grievance
- Overdetermined, kettle-logic rationalization of Pentagon-ceremony absence — read as defensive load rather than cognitive failure
- Severe sample limitation: only 1 substantive authored language sample across 20 posts (3 written total, one staff-authored verbatim headline, one two-line caption); 14 analyzed posts produced no assessable language
- Archival 2001 clips already show perseverative repetition and numeric drift at age 55 — useful as a dated baseline and a caution against attributing current drift to recent decline
- Endorsed fantasy of superhuman stamina in ts_117242970009727578 sits against age-related reality; its nativity-and-succession structure, published at 80 six days after a false death rumor, is consistent with mortality-salience management

> And on June 14, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a caretaker," so God gave us Trump. God said, "I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, fix this country, work all day, fight the Marxist, eat supper, then go to the Oval Office and stay past midnight at a meeting of the heads of state," so God made Trump. "I need somebody with arms, strong enough to rustle the deep state, and yet gentle enough to deliver his own grandchild, somebody to ruffle the feathers, tame cantankerous world economic forum, come home hungry, have to wait until the First Lady is done with lunch with friends, then tell the ladies to be sure and come back real soon, and mean it." So God gave us Trump. I need somebody who can shape an axe, but wield a sword, who had the courage to step foot in North Korea, who can make money from the tar of the sand, turn liquid to gold, who understands the difference between tariffs and inflation, will finish his 40-hour week by Tuesday noon, but then put in another 72 hours. So God made Trump. God had to have somebody willing to go into the den of vipers, call out the fake news for their tongues as sharp as a serpent's. The poison of vipers is… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_117242970009727578)

> Donald was the young man who was going to conquer Manhattan. He takes chances that would make a less daring man shudder. To think about the arc of where he's been in, it's like some sort of mythical story or something. This sounds like political presidential talk to me. Donald Trump seems to always get stronger with challenge. My God, that guy's got resilience. Those who deal with you underestimate you, but they regret it. It's always good to be underestimated. It is not about politics. It's about our love for this great country, America. And we're not going to let it fail. I will fight like no one has ever fought before. Trump is the bodyguard of Western civilization. You want to talk about a fighter who walked in fire. He's an absolute savage. He knows that this is much bigger than him. This is about the American people. They have no idea what they have unleashed. He was ready to go face the cameras and come out swinging. What will future Americans say we did in our brief time here on Earth? It will be defined by your vision, your perseverance, and your grit. Nothing will sway us. Nothing will slow us. And no one will ever stop us. We are Americans. Ambition is our heritage. Grea… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_117242960191148705)

> "On the orders of the President of the United States, U.S. Central Command has confirmed the epic fury we really need." "I'm going to shoot you right down." "This regime will soon learn that no one should challenge the strength and might of the United States armed forces." He reminded the world, as he has time and time again, being an American means something unbreaking. If you kill Americans, if you threaten Americans anywhere on Earth, we will hunt you down. Without apology and without hesitation, we will kill you. We didn't start this war. But under President Trump, we are finishing it. Their war on Americans has become our retribution against their ayatollah. To the great, proud people of Iran, the hour of your freedom is at hand. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take.

> “Words of Wisdom” from Phil Flynn, one of the World’s Great Oil and Energy Analysts — A MUST SEE! President DONALD J. TRUMP

**Video transcript** (4:39), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> In the Middle East, U.S. forces delivering a powerful response to the latest act of Iranian aggression, the military taking out five oil tankers in response to an attempted attack on U.S. warships. Steve Harrigan is live in Tel Aviv with the latest. Hey, Steve. Ainsley, Iranian forces continue to try and fail to take out U.S. military ships in the region, and they are paying a heavy price for doing so. CENTCOM just posted no U.S. Navy warship has been struck. All IRGC attempted attacks failed. Meanwhile, U.S. forces have successfully destroyed 10 Iranian tankers in just the last week. These vessels were part of a multi-billion dollar shadow network that funds the IRGC, and Iran cannot defend them. Now, right after the U.S. destroyed those five Iranian tankers, Iran tried once again to hit U.S. forces inside of Jordan. They launched a ballistic missile attack. Jordan says 18 of those missiles were intercepted. Two of them fell harmlessly in an uninhabited area. And as all this goes on, the U.S. blockade of all Iranian ports continues. No Iranian oil has gotten the market through that blockade all the way back to mid-July. Ainsley, back to you. Okay, good deal. Thank you so much, Ste… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_117241367309466443)

> RT @realDonaldTrump The Failing New York Magazine wrote a story that I wasn’t down at the World Trade Center after the Tragedy of September 11th, because nobody saw me there. Well, I don’t think I would be the first thing on anyone’s mind but, I was there, obviously not on the same day as the collapse, but shortly thereafter, with a large group of Construction Workers. I discussed it today during my Remarks on the Ellipse, in Washington, D.C., for Tunnel to Towers. Everything I said was exactly accurate and, to prove the point, I am attaching clips of me there with numerous of my people, including my then Head of Security, Matthew Calamari, who has confirmed that very sad trip to Lower Manhattan, many times, to many different Journalists, but it’s a story that just won’t die. The Fake News doesn’t want to listen, even when they know their story is false. That’s why their approval ratings are at an All Time LOW, but mine are VERY HIGH! On another September 11th front, Maggot Hagerman continues to say that I did not go to the New York World Trade Center event, but the Pentagon instead, because they wouldn’t let me speak in New York. Maggot knows that this is a lie! I have been to the New York solemn ceremony numerous times, and nobody speaks. It is a stated fact that, “Politicians and public officials are not permitted to deliver speeches or remarks at the official September 11 anniversary remembrance ceremony at the World Trade Center site in New York.” Certainly I would not want to violate that, even if I could. I speak enough, and it just so happens that the strong request was made for me to be at the Pentagon instead, with VP Vance handling our Administration’s representation in New York. Hagerman, unattractive both inside and out, fully knows that her story is made up. She knows less about me than the average reporter “on the beat.” I haven’t spoken to her in a long time, and certainly there was no “fact checking” for her story — There never is! Let her reveal her sources, because they don’t exist. Again, speeches are not made at the New York event and, even if they were, I never asked to speak. Fake News is getting worse and worse in the U.S.A. It’s very important to comment so that people understand what liars and scoundrels these so-called “journalists” are. They’re angry, and sick, over the fact that I won the Presidential Election three times! I hereby demand a retraction from Maggot, and also, for whoever wrote the fake story for New York Magazine. Again, check out the clips of me at the World Trade Center site. I was there as soon as the Law allowed. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

A man resembling Donald Trump, wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and red striped tie, stands in the center of a group of people posing for the photo. Around him are a man in a sleeveless dark shirt with a white bandana, a man in a baseball cap and dust mask with a backpack, a firefighter wearing a yellow-and-black helmet with an emblem, another uniformed responder with a patch on his sleeve, and a soldier in woodland camouflage fatigues and a combat helmet with his back partly to the camera. Behind the group is a large orange piece of construction/demolition equipment marked with the number "30," rubble and debris on the ground, a chain-link fence, additional workers and vehicles in the background, and a tall red-brick high-rise building under a clear blue sky.

Mr. Trump, what should be the response to this attack, how should the US respond to such a devastating? Well, I think they have to respond quickly and effectively, they have to find out exactly what the cause was, who did it, and they have to go after these people because there is no other choice. And then, secondarily and much less importantly, we have to rebuild in some form that will be just as majestic as the World Trade Center.

I've seen two huge 110-story buildings that are reduced to rubble, thousands and thousands of lives. I just got to see something that I've never seen before. I have hundreds of men inside working right now, and we're bringing down another 125 in a little while. And they've never done work like this before, and they're hardworking people, but they've never seen anything like it, and they've never done work like this before. It's terrible. Tell me what it's like at Ground Zero. Tell me about the workers that you saw and what they're doing there. Well, not only is it devastation, but it's very dangerous, because every few minutes a whistle would go off and everybody would just run, because you have all the buildings around it, which are in such a weakened state that people just don't know. And so they just have to take off, and then they come back, and they're working under 50-story buildings that you don't know if they're going to fall down.

> is a devastation but it's very dangerous because every few minutes the whistle would go off and everybody would just run because you have all the buildings around it which are in such a weakened state that people just don't know and so they just have to take off and then they come back and they're working under 50 storey buildings that you don't know if they're gonna fall down so it's a terrible thing for the workers and it's a terrible thing for the world really.

> The Failing New York Magazine wrote a story that I wasn’t down at the World Trade Center after the Tragedy of September 11th, because nobody saw me there. Well, I don’t think I would be the first thing on anyone’s mind but, I was there, obviously not on the same day as the collapse, but shortly thereafter, with a large group of Construction Workers. I discussed it today during my Remarks on the Ellipse, in Washington, D.C., for Tunnel to Towers. Everything I said was exactly accurate and, to prove the point, I am attaching clips of me there with numerous of my people, including my then Head of Security, Matthew Calamari, who has confirmed that very sad trip to Lower Manhattan, many times, to many different Journalists, but it’s a story that just won’t die. The Fake News doesn’t want to listen, even when they know their story is false. That’s why their approval ratings are at an All Time LOW, but mine are VERY HIGH! On another September 11th front, Maggot Hagerman continues to say that I did not go to the New York World Trade Center event, but the Pentagon instead, because they wouldn’t let me speak in New York. Maggot knows that this is a lie! I have been to the New York solemn ceremony numerous times, and nobody speaks. It is a stated fact that, “Politicians and public officials are not permitted to deliver speeches or remarks at the official September 11 anniversary remembrance ceremony at the World Trade Center site in New York.” Certainly I would not want to violate that, even if I could. I speak enough, and it just so happens that the strong request was made for me to be at the Pentagon instead, with VP Vance handling our Administration’s representation in New York. Hagerman, unattractive both inside and out, fully knows that her story is made up. She knows less about me than the average reporter “on the beat.” I haven’t spoken to her in a long time, and certainly there was no “fact checking” for her story — There never is! Let her reveal her sources, because they don’t exist. Again, speeches are not made at the New York event and, even if they were, I never asked to speak. Fake News is getting worse and worse in the U.S.A. It’s very important to comment so that people understand what liars and scoundrels these so-called “journalists” are. They’re angry, and sick, over the fact that I won the Presidential Election three times! I hereby demand a retraction from Maggot, and also, for whoever wrote the fake story for New York Magazine. Again, check out the clips of me at the World Trade Center site. I was there as soon as the Law allowed. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

> I think we'll do fine Donald, what do you think about all this? You're a developer, you've built buildings all your life Well, there's never been anything like this, it's disgraceful And I hope we attack fast, I hope we find out who it is and go fast Okay, why'd you want to come down here today? I have about 100 men working down here, so just to spur them on, hi folks And I hear doing an amazing job, so I just want to give them some support These are men from here at the moment Yeah, men from my company, we have another 100 coming in a little while They're brave guys, a couple of them got hurt What did you think when you heard about this? I was just down to ground zero, ground zero is a disaster I've never seen anything like this, I hope we act very quickly, I hope we find out who did it And act accordingly, and quickly Listen, do you have any plans to donate money to the Widows and Children's Fund for the Holy Firefighters Fund? We've certainly been, I've done it over the years and it certainly sounds like a good idea
