Can’t George Stephanopoulos Google?

ABC refuted Trump’s claim: While there were images of people cheering the towers’ collapse in parts of the Middle East, there is no record of such celebrations in New Jersey.

Meanwhile back in googleland, Washington Post September 18, 2001

In Jersey City, within hours of two jetliners’ plowing into the World Trade Center, law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river.

I remember that too. It was a clear sign of sedition during wartime.

UPDATE CNN: Both Politifact and The Washington Post’s Fact Checker analyzed Trump’s claim. Politifact rated it “pants on fire” and The Washington Post gave it “four Pinocchios.”

This is getting funny.
