Just try to find a photo of it after the collapse.
Try to find a big chunk of concrete.
Simple logic, to thing of the same material with the same shape that hit, will blow approximately the same.
last I checked, if you open a bag of cement, the powder that exits, has the same mass as the bag full of cement before it was opened, minus the weight of the bag...which is a nonissue here.

But strangely, it fly in the air
just let fall powder of ciment(not in the bag) on your feet from 2 feet high.
Take the same mass from the same height but in solid concrete....
We can't see the top section once it starts to sink into the lower section, we don't have X-ray vision to see through the dust cloud.
J'ai rien compris, en français s'il vous plaît.

Even assuming that a photo of large pieces of concrete could not be found (an earlier photo clearly shows you're wrong)- your claim that it was disintegrated before impact would not be proven (and is contradicted by the video evidence), but also your willful neglect of the makeup of the towers also comes into question- steel was in there as well.
Additionally, your last sentence makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

You haven't been making very much sense, but this statement appears to be contradicted by your earlier claim:
The upper section is blown after a few impact.
En français :
Deux choses composées des même matériaux qui ont à peu près la même forme qui se frappent ensemble vont subir à peu près les mêmes dégâts.
translation:
"when two similar objects (in shape and made with the same materials) collide with each other, they will both suffer the same damage."
Which two objects are you referring to?
You haven't been making very much sense, but this statement appears to be contradicted by your earlier claim:
I guess you understand none.
Damn
2- A floor made of SOLID concrete that hit a floor below of the same material will have probably the same kind of damage of the floor below.
1- 2 lbs of powder cement that fell from a height of 2 feet on my feet will do no damage at all if the powder is out of the bag.
If I take some of the powder and make a solid block of concrete with it of 2 lbs and I let fell that block on my feet from a height of two feet, it is possible that it will break my feet.

The upper and the lower floor.
You have not show one single piece of evidence to back this claim up, so thus far it is your opinion only.

two identical cars. one is stationary, the other drives toward it at an angle...is the damage to both the same?

The 2 lb. block of concrete doesn't have much of a chance of breaking your feet. It still only weighs two pounds, after all.
The entire top section fell with all its weight and kinetic energy on the impact floors. You can't possibly think the floors receiving that force could have withstood it, let alone offer enough resistance to nullify it.
I'm in no way a physicist, nor an engineer, but this is ridiculous.

simple physic and simple observation.
I say it's possible, but 2 pound of powder will never, not even 20.
You mean simplistic.

Nope, fore sure but both will be damage.
But in the case of the WTC, at least one tower fell verticaly.
So the upper floor fall in a straight on the lower floor.

That's the problem. There is a point when "simple physics" is no longer able to accurately describe the situation (such as impact dynamics).
I've never said the lower floor withstood the impact of the upper floor with all is weight.
But after many impacts, it stop to collide with all is weight, it's was a multiple impact of a much smaller weight.
