Most people just like myself as we got out of bed l sat back drinking my coffee and started to reflect on where I was on 9/11 17 years ago. It really did consume my thoughts and for a long time I reflected on the events of that day as it unfolded on TV. Watching those planes fly into the twin towers just totally consumed me from what those people inside those buildings were going through. Not only on that day 17 years ago till today I still feel the same those same emotions. That’s all I could think about.

Although I did not know anybody personally that died I did have a good friend that I played golf with and we were both invovled with construction in the New England area and I did reach out to him in a text today. I remember attending his brothers funeral and met his brothers wife and three small children. It was an emotional day for that family and the church service there was not a dry eye in the place. It was amazing the number of contractors that showed up that day in support of Rick and his family.

So today I promised myself I would not listen to what Trump had to say because it would be meaningless. Only because I remember what Trump had said in the following days 17 years ago. But as I do everyday I like to read his early morning tweets as my way to start out the day with a Little comedy.

Here are the comments of Donald Trump as the days unfolded during 9/11 17 years ago.

Trump Quote on tape: I knew hundreds of people k**led on 9/11 many were my friends. But Trump never attended any funerals.

Trump Quote: I personally witnessed hundreds of Muslims in New Jersey dancing in the streets celebrating as the Twin towers collapsed. When he was in his office watching the events unfold. And when investigated there was no evidence that this celebration took place. And no news reports showing anything remotely that showed this. So personally he is clearly lying.

Trump Quote: Trump himself called into WWOR radio station and his first comment was ( I GUESS MY BUILDINGS ARE THE TALLEST NOW)

Trump on those days showed in true Trump fashion how extraordinarily how insensitive he really is.

Well let’s get back to Trumps first tweet of the day and it just continues to show the character of this man that occupies the White House.

So at 7:02 this morning as we all reflected on this day 17 years ago and where we were and the emotions we felt. But not Trump

Trumps 1st Tweet: (WE HAVE FOUND NOTHING TO SHOW COLLUSION BETWEEN PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE RUSSIANS. ABSOLUTLY NOTHING ZERO, BUT EVERYDAY WE GET MORE DOCUMENTION SHOWING COLLUSION BETWEEN THE FBI, DOJ, FOREIGN SPIES, AND THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN, AND RUSSIA, INCREDIBLE.) let’s wait till the Muellar investigation is complete.

I couldn’t believe what I was reading today, all he was thinking about today when he got up was to again attack the FBI, DOJ, and Clinton with more of the same lies. I really believe these 3 books and that OP-ED are true he just cannot help himself and shows he is unfit to hold that office of the president. Because on 9/11 he made it about himself.

I was not going to mention Trump today because I have known him for many years I owned a design build firm, and also Electrical Mechanical, fire Alarm and HVAC controls construction in the New England area for years.
I know who that man is and what he has done to people. If you disagree with him he will do everything in his power to destroy you. And I think the evidence shows that as he destroys everything in his path to maintain his power, and continue to gain great wealth on the backs of tax payers.

But I know the Trumpsters will again try to justify his actions.
Most people just like myself as we got out of bed ... (show quote)


I closed down my business and sent everyone home. It still makes me numb to think about that day.

17 years ago I watched my television. When the buildings fell I knew it was all a lie. I worked to many years at my uncle's demolition company to believe anything else ever since. How many countries have we invaded? All but the one near all the supposed terrorist came from. Isn't it a wonder we now believe one guy took out 600 people with a bump stock from 390 yards with 10 minutes of random fire. Ya can't cure stupid.

This morning news was filled with political ads.. Only one of these attempted to address any issues, that by one of the congress candidates..

All the rest were the expected lies and h**e filled by the NRCC which has seen the h**e strategy work, they will never change to an issue based campaign..

As for the h**e you express to that black man, If the nothing but gifting administration of the right was not so damaging to this nation, he would have no remarks to make..

H**e??? Getting your own medicine hurts,that is what you are whining about..

Yes, I can imagine the champagne consumed because you loons seem to be consuming H_U_G_E amounts every day when you post here. When WE got rid of the brown donkey, we quietly we on with our work, rather than turn to the "juice" like the loony left does for everything.

Someday soon you and the rest of your h**e filled friends will receive exactly what you deserve. You might survive 7 years of it but I doubt it. You’ll line up with the rest to accept your cashless society and finally make your final performance before your true master satan. The scales on your eyes won’t fall off until you realize that your eternal time is set in stone.

You are so confused...

The right wing is based on h**e and lies. It is all they have, all they do..

As a group, you still seem to thing the orange con jerk is doing good for you.

In fact the only thing he has done was good for the very rich, not for those who v**ed for him..

Did you think he was going to put big pharma in its place and lower drug costs??

After he BIG address to get them in line, the pharma stock skyrocketed the next morning.. No restraints or regulations were put in place..

Yea, he did a job, but on his v**ers.

How many agriculture people are now rolling in loses due to the tariffs? Do they still love the orange?

You seem to be wanting to put a religious point to your political opinion... are you so uneducated about what kind of nation we are, and what values patriots charish??

Whose supporters are less rational, Trump supporters or Obama supporters? I didn’t even use my brain to answer that question. It is Trump supporters. I honestly can’t get over the shock the support his base has for him. It is in full view how terrible he is as a person, negotiator, and President.

His rallies are filled with h**e, r****m, lies, name calling, how bad immigrants are & for the millionth time “f**e news.” His supporters are screaming, yelling, clapping, and being disrespectful to our media. Reporters put their lives on the line to give us news of everyday events, rarely does MSNBC or CNN give incorrect information. If they do they apologize and retract it. Most of the things they discuss are things Trump has commented on or tweeted about. I can’t understand how he can call it f**e news and how they believe him. As for Fox I do not consider Fox, information of t***h. They are a propaganda organization. We can now thank, “Plaid Man, ” for revealing Donald Trumps rallies are staged. If you aren’t behind him clapping and yelling out support, you will be removed and replaced with a loyal puppet.

I am a child of Jesus Christ, I was raised by strict Christian parents and thankful they were mine. They taught me to have love, compassion, morals, ethics, respect and I could go on. Donald Trump has none of those traits and standards, yet his base ignores it. Most conservatives supposedly are Christians and one would think that would matter to them. He has done nothing to benefit his supporters, yet they think he is making things better. Donald Trump is setting himself up to be a dictator. They won’t even open their eyes to that obvious fact. They are told by Trump to believe what he says and “they do” I found it offensive when he made this statement about the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing protestors , “I don’t know why they don’t take care of a situation like that,” Trump said. “I think it’s embarrassing for the country to allow protesters. You don’t even know what side the protesters are on.” He can use his free speech to berate, humiliate, lie, etc and we should sit back like “Obedient Handmaidens. ” His supporters are just fine with his h**e filled comments.

I was on Twitter for awhile, thinking maybe I could help his supporters understand what he is doing is dangerous and damaging to our Country. They made some rude offensive comments which were unwarranted, I was not rude to them. I was steadfast in my opinions, but why send me dirty pictures and why gang up on me and call me names and degrade me? Where is respect? There were a few I had long tweet conversations with that respected my opinion as I did theirs, these were few and far between.

Obama wasn’t perfect but I felt he did a darn good job. He was always professional and well spoken and I personally never saw him degrade and berate people or to tweet insults to other countries. I definitely did not see him praise dictators and insult our Country in front of the world. I did see Trump do that. I believe the day Trump stood in front of the world and betrayed our Country, he should have been tossed out of the White House. Republicans wanted someone, out of the norm. If thats what they want we should do things out of the norm and expel Donald Trump form our White House..

No one holds Trump accountable, not his supporters or the Republican Party. Our Country has never been perfect but with Donald Trump in the White House, we are in a fight for our Democracy and our freedom.

Well permi, I don’t care who raised you because you showed your true colors. NO CHRISTIAN would ever stand behind a politician that advocates a******n NEVER. No bush, soetoro or clinton, ever.
I guess your ok with the violence from a****a, b*m and the other anarchy groups.
You must of missed bathhouse barrys bowing and apologizing tours.
We became the laughing stock of the World behind bush and soetoro.
In reality it doesn’t really matter as soon America as we know it is ending because of the left and wrong right.

From a note sent by a lady who has worked in Somalia and the ME as well as the Far East...

she reminded me of a little passage in Genesis about the breath of life. The passage reads that God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and it was then that the man became a living being.

The bible actually has quite a lot to say on the subject of the breath of life. Here are a few more passages that illustrate when life begins.





Job 33:4-The spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life

Ezekiel 37: 5&6- Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. And I shall lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the Lord.

Number of people k**led in LV concert shooting 58 number. of people injured from gun fire 391, number injured from non gun shots 98.

A crowd of 20,000 people you can get off with a high capacity clip which holds anywhere from 60 to 100 rounds you sure as hell can create that kind of carnage.

20,000 people all gathered together and just start shooting you don’t have to aim just pull the trigger once and that’s it.

Go do some demo with your uncle and stop showing your IQ
