(TheLibertyRevolution.com)- While Democrat politicians turned the 9/11 ceremony in New York into an Establishment-only social event, former President Donald Trump decided to commemorate the twentieth anniversary by making surprise visits to New York City’s first responders.
And during his visits, President Trump sharply rebuked President Joe Biden and the disastrous pullout from Afghanistan. He accused the Biden administration of “gross incompetence,” but added that he hates to talk about it on the anniversary of 9/11.

During a visit to an FDNY station, President Trump offered his full-throated support to New York’s first responders saying, “We love the blue.”

And clearly they love him back.
When the President arrived, the firefighters broke out into applause.

Quite a different reception from the one that greeted President Joe Biden who, as he arrived at the 9/11 Memorial was booed and heckled.

Inside the NYPD’s 17th Precinct in midtown, President Trump answered questions from officers. He told them politicians today offer nothing but words – “all you hear is words and they become meaningless after a while.”
When one officer asked if he would be running for President again, Trump said he knows what he’s going to do, but he isn’t supposed to be talking about it yet because of “ridiculous” campaign finance laws. Then he added, “I think you’re going to be very happy.”
When President Trump left NYPD’s 17th Precinct in midtown, a cheering crowd awaited him outside. One person shouted “Thank you for keeping us safe!”
Officers lined up outside the stationhouse in formation to greet the former President. On his way next door to Ladder Company 2, Mr. Trump shook hands and posed for photos.
The decision to spend the day with New York’s first responders was a stroke of genius on the part of President Trump. It showed once again that, unlike the rest of the politicians who preferred each other’s company, Donald Trump preferred to be among the men and women who kept the city safe after that tragic day.
