The man who almost crashed in a helicopter with Donald Trump told Politico Trump confused him with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown -- despite the former president's repeated insistence it was Brown. It was Nate Holden, a former city councilman and state senator from Los Angeles, who said in an exclusive interview late Friday that he remembers the near-death experience well. He and others believe it happened sometime in 1990.
"Willie is the short Black guy living in San Francisco," Holden said. "I'm a tall Black guy living in Los Angeles. "I guess we all look alike," Holden told Politico, letting out a loud laugh.
