On Sunday, during a special edition my Rumble daily show, The StoneZONE, I discussed the failed assassination attempt against President Donald Trump, and spoke about a lesser-known time Trump narrowly escaped death.
It was 1989. I was working for then-businessman Trump as a lobbyist. Little did I know when I requested a last minute meeting at his Manhattan office on an urgent business matter, it very likely saved his life…
I felt this powerful moment from that show is something my subscribers here at Stone Cold Truth should see — so please find that clip above.
If you would rather read about it, you can find a clipping from my book, The Making of the President 2016, which details that near-death moment, below:
“In 1989, I was working for Donald Trump as a lobbyist in Washington handling currency transaction rules that his casinos were subject to. I believed I had worked out regulatory language acceptable to the regulators, subject to Donald’s approval. I called Donald at his office asking if I could jump what was then the Eastern shuttle from DC to New York and meet him at noon in his Manhattan office.
Donald told me he couldn’t meet because he was leaving for Atlantic City with a group of his executives by helicopter. I convinced him to wait for me, sending the executives on ahead and having the chopper return to pick up Trump and bring him to Atlantic City later.
Shortly after I was ushered into Donald’s office, his ashen-faced assistant Norma Foederer told Donald that New Jersey State Police Superintendent Clint Pagano was on the phone. Trump put him on the speaker. “I’m sorry to say that the helicopter your company chartered crashed in the pinelands and everyone aboard was killed.” “Are you certain?” Trump asked. “One hundred percent,” said the veteran cop.
The women at the Trump Organization were openly weeping with Trump losing Steve Hyde and Mark Etess, his two top gaming executives. Hyde was a Mormon with twelve children and a pleasure to work with when I represented the casino company on a few issues.
Donald had Norma place calls to the widows. He spoke to each of them and, in some cases, Trump’s call about their husband’s death was their first news of the cataclysmic event. While Trump may have booked other appointments after mine, I know that his life was spared to save our Republic and restore our economic vitality.
This was the point at which I realized that Trump had been put on Earth for this larger purpose. This was the point that I realized he would be President.”
God was clearly looking out for then-business man Trump, knowing he had a larger purpose in life he needed to fulfill, just as he did over the weekend at his Pennsylvania rally.
