Geez, I've seen a ton of Trump supporters claim that Donnie boy is right about New Jersey.

They claim they also saw American Muslims cheering on the 9/11 attacks. What the hell is their deal? Are they just fucking liars like the douchebag candidate they support or has that egotistical, walking fart sack have them SO brain washed that they're now remembering events in their life that never happened? Either way, it's scary and I've never seen anything like this before in American politics. A good chunk of this country's citizens are out of their damn skulls.

1. That has been on the internets for years n/t

2. They're either lying

Or they saw those in the West Bank (maybe Gaza - definitely Palestinians) celebrating and think it was New Jersey. Either way , they're imbeciles.

3. There were rumors at the time--mostly spread on conservative talk radio.

That's probably what they remember. I think you have to couple this with the fact that way too many people have convinced themselves that there is a conspiracy on the part of the mainstream media to suppress the truth. A Sean Hannity or Mark Levin talking about this on the radio is worth more to them than a thousand fact based articles and reports to the contrary.

If these celebrations were real, you'd think that some New Jersey cops, not exactly raving leftists, would have come forward to back the Donald up.

My personal recollection is that most Muslims were scared to death. Even the Sikhs who own a gas station near me were frightened that they might be mistaken for Muslims--they posted signs stating their religion and pictures of Osama Bin Laden with a bull's-eye around his head.
