Trump mixes up ‘9/11’ with ‘7/11’

Donald Trump, who has made his advocacy for New York City after the 9/11 attacks central to his candidacy, accidentally referred to it on Monday as 7/11 — the ubiquitous convenience store.

“I wrote this out, and it’s very close to my heart,” he said at the outset of his remarks on Buffalo on Monday evening. “Because I was down there and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7/11, down at the World Trade Center right after it came down. And I saw the greatest people I’ve ever seen in action.” The businessman did not correct himself.

Reality

Compared to the bullying, racist, sexist, misogynist, ignorant, swearing, harassing, petty, and false things Trump has said, even things about 9/11, this flub is relatively minor.
