There was nothing political or politically charged about what he said. He kept the focus on the first respondents. He's talking about how he was there and he saw them and inferring how brave they were, he also said he wasn't one. I don't really see how that's making it all about Trump. Hillary would've said the same thing and none of us would've cared. Except your side would be bragging it up. She was there on the 2nd day with them saw them, but wasn't a 1st responder herself.

"I was down there also, but I'm not considering myself a first responder," Trump said. "But I was down there. I spent a lot of time down there with you."

So pick your battles, this one isn't worth it. There's plenty of other things Trump literally says that you can attack.


I didn't see you mention the 9/11 bill that Obama Vetoed?

I'm with you; I don't think Trump wanted to make it about him. In this instance he was willing to take a backseat to the first responders, but he wanted to make sure folks knew he was in the car. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Any public figure would do the same.
