It was verified by another passenger, Trump just got the name wrong. He’s probably also exaggerating the situation for dramatic purposes
The helicopter needed to land because of turbulence and instrument malfunctions. Ithey weren’t in risk of crashing. Shortly beforehand, there had been a helicopter crash in the area, which influenced the pilot to take “safety first” landing. Trump went right into another helicopter to continue his journey…
Anyway, I fully understand the need to land and why passengers including Trump were scared shitless, but it’s really nothing to brag about.
I almost got hit by a car yesterday. It was on the road and I was on the pavement. Close call.
