Political Weirdos

It's getting even dumber. Trump now claims it happened in New Jersey many years ago. He has evidence. A picture from a book shows him and Willie Brown together and quotes Trump as saying "We actually had an emergency landing in a helicopter together." The book was written in 2023 by Trump, well, by someone literate. But there is evidence that he believed this as far back as.. last year.

Nate Holden, a black California politician says he had a "turbulent helicopter ride" with Trump in New Jersey probably in 1990. Barbara Res, the Trump Organization’s former executive vice president of construction and development, thinks it was Nate Holden.

Of course, this whole thing absolutely does not matter at all. The whole story was just a way to say "someone who knew Harris said bad things about her" which also doesn't matter even if it's true. But it's funny because he will waste so much time ranting about this non-story for the next three months and probably for the rest of his life.
