Donald Trump Fabricated A Near-Death Experience, Three Biographies Say
“I can get some publicity out of this,” Trump is alleged to have said after three of his executives died in a helicopter accident.
It’s a harrowing tale of real estate mogul Donald Trump narrowly escaping death: After meeting with Trump casino executives Stephen Hyde, Mark Grossinger Etess, and Jonathan Benanav, Trump at the last minute decides to not join them on their helicopter ride back to Atlantic City.
“The next morning Donald’s ‘revelation’ will appear in a caption on the front page of the
New York Daily News beneath photographs of the three dead men: ‘Trump decided not to go at the last minute,” Hurt writes.
This fairy tale was debunked by several biographers who cited many sources that said it was a 'barefaced lie.'
Drumpf had a meeting that afternoon and had no intentions of ever being on the flight.
Plus he never flew on chartered helicopters. He only trusted his own.
He made up the story of changing his mind at the last minute and used the death of three of his executives for publicity.
