“40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan,” Trump replied, “and it was actually, before the World Trade Center, was the tallest — and then, when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second tallest. And now it’s the tallest.”
Donald Trump – September 11, 2001
What a narcissist. Thousands of people dead and all he can think of is how his building ranks.
He also factually incorrect, Chrysler, Empire State, and 70 Pine are all taller.
He also claimed that he watched on TV, “thousands and thousands” of Muslims in New Jersey cheered as the towers fell.
He’s a habitual liar… yet people still believe his obvious lies.
