Trump booed at Knicks-Spurs game as he became first US president at NBA Finals

8d 5h ago by sh.itjust.works/u/pelespirit in politics@sh.itjust.works from www.bbc.com

Trump's arrival meant the streets around Madison Square Garden were shut down to foot and vehicle traffic. Thousands of New York Police Department officers and hundreds of Secret Service officers were deployed.

Metal barriers were put up at each block as sports fans faced an airport-style gauntlet of security.

For bars in the area showing the finals game, this would normally be a lucrative night. But the barriers stopped foot traffic and left many pubs empty.

Disgruntled Knicks fans as well as regular commuters struggled to navigate the celebrations.

One New Yorker told the BBC the high security was "killing the vibe of the Knicks".

He’s also the first ever president to fall asleep at the finals.

I'm sure he is also the first president to ever shit himself at the finals as well.

He made NY lose a home game even after winning twice away

Fuck that fucking fucker to the highest of Fuckativity!
