President Donald Trump has trotted out a questionable excuse for missing the next NBA Finals game after his excruciating cameo on Monday evening.
The president, who turns 80 on Sunday, was present as the New York Knicks fell to defeat against the San Antonio Spurs in game three at Madison Square Garden. The president always faces a tough crowd in his liberal-leaning home city, but he rankled New Yorkers even further by plunging the area around the venue into lockdown mode with his presence.
Ticket holders were forced to endure airport-style security to get into the game, and the area around the venue resembled a war zone, with special agents and thousands of cops patrolling the streets. The circus created by Trump’s attendance was reflected in the welcome he received inside.
