Trump, Vance, Biden, and Harris Remember 9/11

0

Following last night’s presidential debate, former President Donald Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris, President Joe Biden, and Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance stood together at the 9/11 memorial in New York City. 

The four showcased unity as they paid their respects at the memorial and commemorated the lives of the 2,983 victims of the 2001 terrorist attack.

Harris and Trump shook hands at the event, harkening back to last night’s exchange at the debate. 

The ceremony included moments of silence that corresponded with the times the hijacked planes hit the two towers. That was followed by a reading of the names of the lives lost by family and friends of the victims. 

Trump met with the firefighters at Ladder Company 15 in New York City and will also participate in a private wreath-laying ceremony in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Biden and Harris will also be in Shanksville for a wreath-laying ceremony. 

Biden posted a video statement on X that called on Americans to “honor those we lost on September 11th by renewing our faith in one another, recommitting to national unity, and remembering who we are.” 

9/11 ceremonies are being held across the country in honor of the lives that were taken 23 years ago.
