Trump's claim of near-death experience on helicopter disputed

Former President Donald Trump's claim of a near-death experience on a helicopter with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown was disputed by Brown, who told NBC News he had never been on a helicopter with Trump. It appears the former president may have been confusing Willie Brown, who once dated Kamala Harris, with former California Gov. Jerry Brown, who did ride in a helicopter with Trump in 2018. NBC News' Gabe Gutierrez reports.

What do you expect for someone suffering from stage 34 dementia.

[eileenwisniewski]

His right about his near death experience, but it isn't a plane is his campaign dying slowly but surely

[johnlocke]

An event that never happened with people who weren't even there. Pretty soon he'll claim it was his divinity that saved them all.

[loungeranger]

This story is true. Trump just forgot about the most interesting part, Hannibal Lecter was the helicopter pilot.

[Mya_Sarah_Bellum]

He doubled down on his claim yesterday and said he would release the flight records. Gee, I wonder why he hasn't done that yet.🙄

He probably saw something in a movie, a long time ago, and all he remembers was a helo crashing and guys talking. Now he remembers just enough that he thinks it was himself and some black guy. The rest is pure BS. The problem is, no matter what tffg says outloud, he's got an audience. He's got everyone trained to listen to his every word. He's been called out on his lies but he doesn't care. He loves knowing that everyone is still talking about him. Want to stop him. Stop paying him any attention.

Every time he opens his mouth well it just comes out!!!

[amatthews]

Why did he tell this story? What did he gain for having this “story” out?

[richardwilliams]

The Lying King never disappoints SMH LOL

[grammytammy]

It just never ends. I've had a headache for 8 years now. Smfh

[michaelhunt]

Why don't the media call Trump out of his lies?

[stephaniehenry]

Trump should learn you can't tell lies when the people that can dispute them are still alive.

[kathrynramsey]

He's just grasping desperately for more attention. Pay him no mind.

The helicopter battery fell into the water and electrocuted a shark just before the bullet pierced the earlobe.

[knightron]

Trump said Hannibal Lecter was a co-passenger and will confirm the story. 😂

[steeplecab]

His plane had mechanical problems and was forced to land in Billings rather than continue on to Bozeman.Just a broke down old man with a broke down plane.

[tempestus]

😂 Seriously this guy is legit insane..

[trevorlee]

Trump will say he marched with Dr King and his followers will cheer

[eartraffic]

[justme]
