Benny Johnson, Conservative activist

“Donald Trump spent 9/11 marching into a war zone of fire and ashes with an army of his own men to save Americans.”

PolitiFact rated this: False

PolitiFact says: News accounts from 9/11 put Donald Trump near ground zero on multiple occasions, but there's no record he was directly involved with recovery efforts. Trump has not provided evidence to support these claims.
