Donald Trump recently recounted a harrowing helicopter experience with Willie Brown, the former partner of Kamala Harris, during a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate. However, Brown has firmly denied ever being in a helicopter with Trump, labeling the claims as 'obviously false.' This incident highlights Trump's ongoing attempts to draw attention to himself amidst the competitive political landscape.
During the press conference, Trump claimed that he and Brown faced a dangerous emergency landing, a story that has raised eyebrows and led to speculation that he may have confused Willie Brown with former California Governor Jerry Brown, with whom he did share a helicopter ride in 2018. The former governor confirmed that their flight was uneventful and did not involve any discussions about Harris.
In response to the backlash, Trump threatened to sue The New York Times for their reporting on the incident. He insisted that there are flight recordings to support his claims, although it remains unclear whether these recordings will ever be made public. This incident has sparked discussions about Trump's credibility and the lengths he will go to remain in the spotlight.
