Trevor Noah runs through Trump's history of 'bizarre, emotionally out-of-step' comments on 9/11
President Trump's terse 9/11 tweet on Tuesday — "17 years since September 11th!" — "upset a lot of people," Trevor Noah said on The Daily Show. But give the president some credit, he said. "It is the most factually accurate thing Trump has tweeted about in about three months." More to the point, "compared to what Trump normally says about 9/11, today's tweet was a huge step in the right direction," Noah added. "Because Trump has never been able to talk about 9/11, on Twitter or in real life, without being totally weird about it." He ran thorough some of the "bizarre, emotionally out-of-step s--t about 9/11" Trump has said since, well, Sept. 11, 2001, when he focused on how he now had the tallest building in Lower Manhattan.
