Trump has slip of tongue discussing 9/11 at Buffalo rally
Source: Washington Post
BUFFALO, N.Y. Donald Trump made an unfortunate slip of the tongue while campaigning in Buffalo, New York, at his final campaign rally before Tuesdays big-prize primary.
He was about to deliver prepared remarks lauding New York values when he mistakenly mentioned the name of a popular convenience store chain in place of 9/11.
Its very close to my heart because I was down there, and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7-Eleven, down at the World Trade Center right after it came down, and I saw the greatest people Ive ever seen in action, Trump told the crowd of thousands packed into the citys hockey arena.
While few in the room appeared to notice the flub, Trumps comments quickly drew attention on social media, where some panned him for the confusion.

(6,241 posts)on the day it came down, I'm sure it was a very scary place to be. I know I wouldn't want to go in for a cheeseburger bite or a Slurpee. So firefighters that went that day were very brave.
