..do such a noble thing? I did say I was off the bandwagon a couple of days ago, but this act of selflessness won me back over. This makes me think as president that he would turn Air Force One around just to help someone in need. On Tuesday July 19, 1988, the real estate tycoon broke out his Boeing 727 to fly then 3 year old Avraham (Andrew Ten) Moshe who was suffering a rare breathing illness and three nurses from California to New York's Schneider Children’s Hospital of Long Island Jewish Medical Center for medical treatment.
Trump was the last resort for Andrew's parents, Judy and Harold Ten.
I don't like his brash demeanor. His words are inflammatory, and his attitude could use a lot of work. But his actions here it seems speak louder than and of the words he would utter decades later. And now a question for you: which of the other 16 GOP candidates would have done the same thing in Trump's place all those years ago?

NOTE: Rabbi Harold Ten was convicted of running a variable annuities scheme by the SEC in 2014. Ten played a key role in an alleged scheme that allowed a ring of brokers, investment advisers and their clients to profit from the deaths of terminally ill patients.
But to use that as a way to smear Trump would be blatantly dishonest. Stay classy liberals.

NEW YORK (Jul. 19)
The private Boeing 727 of real estate tycoon Donald Trump arrived from Los Angeles at LaGuardia Airport Tuesday morning, carrying aboard an Orthodox Jewish child with a rare and still undiagnosed breathing illness.
The child, Andrew Ten, age 3, arrived with his parents — accompanied by three nurses who attend to him around the clock — to try to seek medical help in the New York area.
Trump made his plane available for the special trip to New York after the boy’s parents, Judy and Harold Ten, called Trump and told him of their plight.
Commercial airlines refused to fly the child because he could not travel without an elaborate life-support system, which includes a portable oxygen tank, a suction machine, a breathing bag and an adrenaline syringe.
“Mr. Trump did not hesitate when we called him up. He said ‘yes, I’ll send my plane out,'” 29-year-old Harold Ten recalled shortly after he landed here Tuesday morning.
