Trump Denies Former Mayor's Claim of Fabricated Helicopter Emergency Landing Incident

Donald Trump claimed that he and former San Francisco mayor Willie Brown were in a helicopter that nearly crashed, with Brown confirming that the landing was unpleasant. However, Brown later stated that Trump's account was "obviously wrong". The New York Times reported that Trump was on a rocky helicopter ride, but it was not with Brown, who is also the ex-boyfriend of Kamala Harris. Trump threatened to sue the NYT over the report. It was later revealed that Trump actually took a turbulent helicopter ride with Nate Holden, not Willie Brown, decades ago.
