Trump speaking to US Navy of aircraft carrier USS George HW Bush on Oct.5, 2025:
“And please remember, I wrote about Osama bin Laden exactly one year ago. One year before he blew up the World Trade Center. And I said, ‘You’ve got to watch Osama bin Laden.’ And the fake news would never let me get away with that statement unless it was true. But I said one year before to Pete Hegseth, and I said one year before (?). In the book, I wrote – whatever the hell the title, I can’t tell you – but I can tell you there’s a page in there devoted to the fact that I saw somebody named Osama bin Laden, and I didn’t like it, and, ‘You gotta take care of him.’ They didn’t do it; a year later he blew up the World Trade Center. So, you gotta take a little credit, because nobody else is gonna give it to me.”
