The President makes a dumb-ass face, and keeps sitting in the classroom!
He told chief of staff, Andy Card, to round everybody up and gather a much information as possible - there would be
a meeting in few minutes
Also had staff ready to move , SS told aircrew to warm up air Force and be ready for immediate takeoff

So you say no damage, fires were not bad and fire proofing would have been ok
Have a read Here
There were major problems with the quality of work done during construction with fireproofing as you can see in link above
When the towers were designed thermal loading was not calculated as thourghly as wind & other structural loads assumptions were made that all changed after 9/11.

Out of the about 10 floors that were impacted by the impact of the aircraft, about 6 floors were occupied by Marsh & McLenan where Paul Bremer worked, who went on to head up the bureaucracy after the invasion of Iraq. Goodness, what a coincidence.

So after the two planes punched through the towers, knocked off fireproofing, cut apart massive steel columns, and caused intense fires that completely collapsed the buildings in seconds, there was no evidence found of the planes at all, not even one fragment from 4 dense steel engines?
Simply amazing!
Nooooo jet wreckage ever recovered at the WTC? Is that your false argument?
One of the engines and part of the landing gear hurtled across the 79th floor, through wall partitions and two fire walls, and out the south wall's windows to fall onto a 12-story building across 33rd Street.
The other engine flew into an elevator shaft and landed on an elevator car. The car began to plummet, slowed somewhat by emergency safety devices. Miraculously, when help arrived at the remains of the elevator car in the basement, the two women inside the car were still alive.

Actually there was photographic evidence of one of the engines continuing on after striking the building, and that engine was found on the sidewalk in the same location as the photographic evidence shows.
Trouble is, the engine is not the one used on the stock 767, it was modified, showing it to be a drone.

At around this time, the flight had a near midair collision with Delta Air Lines Flight 2315, reportedly missing the plane by only 300 feet or 90 metres, as air traffic controller Dave Bottiglia frantically tried to tell the Delta pilot to take evasive action. Bottiglia was the first person in the control center to realize that Flight 175 was hijacked when he gave directions for a turn. Flight 175 did not respond, instead accelerating and heading toward the Delta plane. The controller commanded the Delta pilot, "Take any evasive action necessary. We have an airplane that we don't know what he's doing. Any action at all."[15][16] Moments before Flight 175 crashed, it avoided another near collision with Midwest Express Flight 7, which was flying from Milwaukee to New York.[17]
Upon impact, the plane’s jet fuel exploded, filling the interior of the building with flames all the way down to the 75th floor and sending flames out of the hole the plane had ripped open in the building’s side.
While the 78th and 79th floors bore the brunt of the damage, one of the B-25's engines fell down an elevator shaft and set off a major fire in the basement. The other engine hurtled across the building and tore through seven walls before emerging from the 33rd Street side of the tower. The debris crashed through the roof of a thirteen-story building across the street where another fire erupted. Other heavy wreckage, including the landing gear, also caused damage to the Empire State and nearby buildings while Stan Lomax reportedly saw part of a wing catapulting towards Madison Avenue.
Gloria Pall worked for the United Service Organization's headquarters on the 56th floor.
"I was at the file cabinet and all of a sudden the building felt like it was just going to topple over," Pall said. "It threw me across the room, and I landed against the wall. People were screaming and looking at each other. We didn't know what to do. We didn't know if it was a bomb or what happened.
The body of the Navy hitch-hiker Albert Perna was found two days after the crash at the bottom of an elevator shaft

You would never understand it. If I provided links to PFT with the analysis, you would reject it.
In the end it doesn't matter because the damage has all been done.
