“Trump hits NYT while doubling down on near-crash helicopter story”
“Former President Trump went after The New York Times Friday night, defending his claim that former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown once traveled with him in a helicopterthat nearly crashed.”
“Two Failing New York Times ‘reporters’ questioned my story about a forced landing of a helicopter, in a field, with former Mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown, and others,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social. “It was Willie Brown, not former Governor Jerry Brown. So far they are about as accurate as they are with their other stories about me.”
First off, Brown denies the claim, secondly, now a person actually in the helicopter denies Trump’s claim Brown was there (https://www.politico.com/news/2024/08/09/trump-plane-crash-california-00173487), and, the NYT earned a 13.6% profit last year (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/07/business/media/new-york-times-earnings.html), pretty good for a “falling” enterprise
Obvious the truth matters little to Trump, he says anything and defends it as valid, exact reason the attempted press conference was a shit show
