Did Trump have foreknowledge of 9/11? In his 2000 book, The America We Deserve,

"One day we're told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin Laden is public enemy Number One, and U.S. jetfighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan. He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later it's on to a new enemy and new crisis."

" I really am convinced we’re in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the 1993 bombing of the Trade Center look like kids playing with firecrackers. No sensible analyst rejects this possibility, and plenty of them, like me, are not wondering if but when it will happen."

" In our age of miniaturization, weapons have shrunk — and the threat against us is suddenly very large. When a nuclear device can fit in a suitcase, and a canister of anthrax can devastate New York, Boston, Los Angeles, or any other American city, the equation has changed radically."

What in there shows advanced knowledge? The idea that OBL would try again to blow up the WTC? Nope. The fact that technology gets smaller? Look at cellphones from the 80 to the 90s. Or computers from the 60's to the 90's Not exactly a prediction.
 
He also mentioned Anthrax attacks which came to fruition shortly after the 9/11 attacks.

I agree questioning the premise of the OP. Further where does advanced warning of Anthrax attacks? Those types of attacks have been carried out in 2001 https://www.google.com/search?newwi...C4xNZgBAKABAaoBB2d3cy13aXrAAQE&sclient=psy-ab
just before book had been written.
 
Also, who was Trump to be in this inner circle to be given advanced warning? Even in the 90's he wasn't known for his ability to keep his trap shut. Even back then, he was known for being a blowhard. FFS, if you wanted to run a super secret operation to attack and kill people in the US, Trump in the 90's would still be so far down the page, forests would have to be leveled.

Why would you loop in Trump in the late 90's?
 
A PBS documentary from March 2000 about OBL In the intro they mention how there was fear during the New Year period about a terrorist attack on New York

Also at 24:30 they also mention the 1993 WTC bombing. The documentary ends with the narrator saying that OBL is still at large and may commit more terrorist acts in the future against the US.

Oh! Did PBS also predict 9/11?
 
Trump was the primary force behind 9-11, and financed it. Bin Laden was just his organizer and lackey. Trump knew that it would result in his election to POTUS 16 years later and would provide a fine opportunity to become the USA's first dictator. People think that Trump is stupid. Well do I have news for them.....

I publish an on-line newsletter that can be had for a very nominal fee. Those that want to be fully informed pls pm me.

Bit coin only subscription? I do remember in the early days of folding there were clients built into websites that would fold when you were on that page, somewhat surreptitiously. Probably one out there that mines too. Just sayin.

The World Trade Center had already been attacked in 1993, and other Al Qaeda -backed attacks had been foiled by the NYPD CTU. It was only a matter of time before some terrorist group got lucky.

Everyone who read the newspapers in the 1990s through 2001 knew an attack was coming.

Everyone.

Stating NYC was going to be attacked was a safe blanket statement, just as saying California will suffer a devastating earthquake, or that the US can expect powerful hurricanes and tornadoes, or these days anyone can predict riots after police shoot a black person.

This isn't about foreknowledge, it's about not being a dumbass.
 
Geez, now Trump is behind 9/11, too?

Pretty soon there won’t be anyone who WASN’T in on it, per Truther world - aside from the people who actually did it, of course.

Well, it happened during the break between my military and civilian government service, I'm surprised I've not been named.

Yes, but given that he's also the anti-establishment crusader who's going to expose the whole conspiracy, having been the leader of it means he won't have any problem finding lots of convincing evidence. Unless you can reconcile two mutually exclusive world views into a single unholy mess, you're not a proper truther.

the idiot in chief only has foreknowledge of Windmills causing cancer

Did Trump have foreknowledge of 9/11? In his 2000 book, The America We Deserve, ...
No trump had no foreknowledge.

Clownstick has no knowledge, except Windmills cause cancer, and he has the best people, who turn out to be indited.

Clownstick is best at projecting, telling lies, and cheating at golf.

Clownstick lies about everything, and there is no doubt he has claimed, and will claim he predicted 9/11 - and it appears he did not nothing to stop it.

He is a narcissistic liar with no peers.




He lied that he predicted Osama bin Laden’s 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, Liar
 
Seems that Trump's comments about mini nukes or canisters of Anthrax shows a lack of knowledge of the future.

No mini nukes have been used in terrorism. Anthrax attacks were low tech, just powder deposited in mailing envelopes, and were extremely targeted and did not "devastate" any major cities.

No mention of using hijacked airlines as a weapon, which was a novelty of the 9/11 attacks. Trump was just talking about commonly understood tropes of the time.
