I was at a meeting in Midtown, and instead of going to the airport, I came back down here, and saw the tower, the North Tower, the smoke coming out, and so on. And then saw the South Tower fall.

Rosenthal said, &#8220;We&#8217;re a festival that was started because of an act of war.

And we now see more and more how insane this administration is, how insane Donald Trump is, and he has to be gotten out. And we&#8217;ve got to get back on track with this country. That&#8217;s all.

They revert it. He reverts things and inverts them and twists them around. It&#8217;s a lot of silly nonsense. A three-year-old could do it. That&#8217;s just a way to deflect, and we all know that.
