On MSNBCs The Morning Joe Show, host Joe Scarborough commented about predictions that Donald Trump wrote in one of his books: \r<br>\r<br>“He predicted, basically predicted, the attacks from Osama bin Laden.”\r<br>\r<br>Donald Trump predicted in his book, The America We Deserve, published in 2000, that there would be an attack on the World Trade Center.\r<br>\r<br>“I really am convinced were in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the bombing of the [1993] Trade Center look like kids playing with firecrackers.\r<br>\r<br>Mr. Trump recently suggested that George W. Bush failed to protect the country from the terror attacks.\r<br>\r<br>“When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time.”\r<br>\r<br>In his book, Trump mentioned the mastermind behind the threat by name:\r<br>\r<br>“One day were told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin-Laden is public enemy number one, and U.S. jetfighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan.\r<br>\r<br>These predictions by Trump brought an incredulous reaction on MSNBCs Morning Joe:\r<br>\r<br>Joe Scarborough: “Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.wait. OK, hold on a second. Is this really Trump before 9/11? Have you read this?”\r<br>\r<br>Willie Geist: “Its 2000 in his book.”\r<br>\r<br>Joe Scarborough: “Are we making…? Did someone…? Did you make this up?”\r<br>\r<br>Willie Geist: “Osama bin Laden was in the atmosphere and he wrote about it in the book.”
