NYDN Slams Rudy Giuliani’s ‘Pathetic Politicizing’ of 9/11: ‘Ex-Mayor Despicably Forgets’

Rudy Giuliani, the New York pol who was Mayor of the city during September 11th, has long kept the memory of the terrorist attack alive. Even during his brief flirtations with running for President, Giuliani was known for often invoking the 2001 terror attacks on the World Trade Center, often using the phrase “never forget.”

Well, in the estimation of many, Mr. Mayor broke his own golden rule yesterday while stumping for his pal Donald Trump.

During a rally in Pennsylvania, Giuliani remarkably told the crowd, “Under those eight years, before Obama came along, we didn’t have any successful radical Islamic terrorist attack inside the United States.” And today, the New York Daily News is letting the city’s old Mayor have it as a result.
