Harris and Trump shake hands at New York 9/11 remembrance ceremony on 23rd anniversary of attacks

Source: CNN

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump and Sen. JD Vance are commemorating the 23rd anniversary of the September 11 attacks, appearing to put political hostilities on the back burner for a moment as the nation remembers the tragedy.

All four leaders are in New York on Wednesday for a commemoration event at Ground Zero in Manhattan. Trump and Harris, just hours past their first in-person meeting at the presidential debate Tuesday night, shook hands ahead of solemn commemorative ceremonies after Harris turned toward Trump and both extended a hand. Vance and Harris did not appear to interact.

Harris and Biden will then travel to Shanksville, Pennsylvania, to participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Flight 93 memorial, according to a White House schedule. Later in the afternoon, they will both travel to the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, for another wreath laying ceremony.

Trump will also travel separately to Shanksville later on Wednesday, according to a source familiar with his plans.

in the 1930s, Father Charles Coughlin was the most famous man in the world and was an anti-semite who wrote love letters to Mussolini

nowadays, Trump is the most famous man in the world and is an anti-semite who writes love letters to Kim Jong Un

history repeats itself...literally!

This orange pos and his eyeliner wearing dog are just there for a photo opp. Completely inappropriate for this NAT SEE to show up for a 9/11 memorial when he is responsible for another 9/11 style attack on American soil, we all know it as J6.Totally disgusting for this TRAITOR to show up on hallowed ground (JUST LIKE ARLINGTON) especially on 9-11-24 so he can try and gain some points for that 100% ass beating he took from President(47)HArris last night.This man is fowl,stupid (73 IQ),evil,and a sever threat to the security of the United States!TRE45ON.
