    Wednesday's 9/11 ceremony at ground zero in New York was a photo of the year in the making.

    Less than 12 hours after former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris left a Philadelphia debate stage following a 90-minute angry clash, the two came together at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum to memorialize the terrorist attacks that killed 2,977 people on Sept. 11, 2001. The Washington Examiner's Jack Birle wrote it up here .

    In a scene that didn’t even happen on Inauguration Day in 2021, Trump, Harris, and President Joe Biden stood together. Recall that Trump skipped Biden's inauguration.

    The video feed from C-SPAN showed former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, acting as mediator, tapping Harris to get her to acknowledge Trump. When she turned, Harris and Trump had a much more cordial handshake than they did the night before.

    As they shook hands, Trump said something and gave Harris’s hand a friendly pat with his left hand, and she appeared to mouth, “Thank you.”

    Trump’s friendly tone was a shift from Tuesday night when it was Harris who approached Trump to shake hands. They didn’t shake hands after the debate ended.
