Trump plans to visit Ground Zero on 9/11 20th anniversary – after Rudy Giuliani said Biden is ‘not welcome’ in NYC

DONALD Trump intends to visit Ground Zero on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 after Rudy Giuliani said Joe Biden was “not welcome” in NYC.

The former Republican president said he would visit the site of the terrorist attacks in Manhattan in an interview with Fox News Friday.

It comes after New York City’s former mayor Rudy Giuliani told WABC radio during a 9/11 remembrance: “President Biden shouldn’t come here. He doesn’t belong here.”

Trump had been tight-lipped about whether he would mark the tragedy.

The New Jersey Globe reported Thursday Trump would visit Ground Zero early Saturday afternoon, following a formal ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum.

It is not thought he will bump into the current president, Joe Biden.

Biden and first lady Jill Biden are due to attend the beginning of the 8:30am ceremony before leaving New York around 10M to take part in observances at Shanksville, Pa. — the site of the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 — and the Pentagon.

Trump has been piling on stinging criticism of Biden in the last few weeks over the withdrawal of US troops and the subsequent takeover of the country by the Taliban.

The US moved troops into the country in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

“It is very depressing,” Trump told Fox News Friday of his feelings on the anniversary. “This was supposed to be a day of victory. Now it is a day of embarrassment. How do you have this happen?”

“I think Biden rushed it [the Afghan pullout] to try to claim victory,” the former president added, “and now, he looks like a fool.”
