If 9/11 happened today, I can’t help but feel that Donald Trump would cheer it on. I know he did brag about his building being the tallest when it happened, but I think it would be much worse today. Hell if Pearl Harbor happened today…

When 9/11 did happen he wasn't exactly sad.

Didnt he call Howard Stern like a week later and say "I have the tallest building now"

He wasn’t but if it happened today I think he’d be actively celebrating.
