Where Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton Were on 9/11
« on: September 10, 2016, 01:35:19 am »
Clinton was in D.C. at the time of the attack as one of New York's senators.

On the day of the attacks, Trump has said, he was in his Manhattan apartment.


Since the 9/11 attacks, there hasn't been a presidential nominee hailing from New York. But that changed this year, since the major party candidates have close ties to the state.

Donald Trump is a born-and-bred New Yorker who has extensive real estate interests in the Big Apple, which he still calls his home. Hillary Clinton represented New York in the Senate for eight years and has lived in a home in the state for 16 years.

Both candidates have talked about the attacks and their aftermath throughout this presidential campaign, but neither of them will be doing so publicly this weekend: Both have agreed not to campaign Sunday, on the 15th anniversary of the attacks.

A Clinton campaign aide confirmed today that she will be visiting ground zero on Sunday "to pay her respects."

While both have discussed their experiences in the aftermath of the acts of terrorism during various campaign stops, Clinton and Trump don't regularly talk about their whereabouts on that day.

Clinton was in D.C. at the time of the attack as one of New York's senators.

Members of Congress sang "God Bless America" on the evening of Sept. 11 on the steps of the Capitol, and immediately after that, Clinton was interviewed by ABC News' Jonathan Karl, who was working for CNN at the time.
