President Trump was warmly received by New York City’s finest as he delivered a special treat to them following a long day in court.
As Fox News reportedthe 45th President spent most of the day cooped up inside a Manhattan courtroom to witness testimony and cross-examination regarding the bogus criminal charges against him. Corrupt Judge Juan Merchan also heard arguments from prosecutors and Trump’s defense team on whether Trump violated the unconstitutional gag order imposed upon him.
Media outlets captured footage of Trump hand-delivering pizzas and posing for photos alongside the firefighters. The visit lasted roughly 10 minutes, and Trump did not address the media afterward.
Look how thrilled the firefighters are to see a man taking time to honor them. Compare this to a so-called “president” who regularly spits on those who serve.

Fox News notes this was the same fire department Trump visited in 2021 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
In addition to the pizzas, Trump expressed his admiration for the firefighters by writing “FDNY “I LOVE YOU ALL — SPECIAL PEOPLE.”
