Presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump put their differences aside Wednesday morning after a tough debate night to mark the 23rd anniversary of the September 11th terror attacks.
Harris and Trump were pictured shaking hands and exchanging a few words.
President Joe Biden and vice presidential candidate JD Vance were also in attendance.

From The New York Post:
Harris, 59, smiled as she greeted the crowd alongside Biden. She then leaned across her boss and shook hands with Trump, who arrived at the memorial about 10 minutes earlier with his running mate, JD Vance.
Harris, Biden, Trump and Vance then posed for a photograph together with former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who stood between Trump and Biden.
Biden and Harris are set to attend all three sites, going to events at the Pentagon in Virginia and the field near Shanksville, Pa., where United Airlines Flight 93 crashed after it was taken over by hijackers — and passengers fought back.
…
This year is not the first time presidential candidates have overlapped at the 9/11 sites. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and Trump both attended the 2016 event at Ground Zero but did not speak to each other.
Last year, Biden chose to spend 9/11 far from the sites where 2,977 Americans died in 2001, choosing to attend a ceremony at an Alaskan military base coming home from his trip to Asia.
