Donald Trump was loudly booed when he was shown on the video screens at Madison Square Garden on Monday night before Game 3 of the NBA finals between the San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks.

Trump was shown on the jumbotron while the Star-Spangled Banner was being sung before the game, and jeers and boos broke out around the arena. The president, with his granddaughter Kai behind him, was shown for a little over eight seconds and held a salute the whole time with a smile on his face. A few seconds later, the video board showed Knicks players in line and the boos turned to cheers.

Which is an honor he not only did NOT earn, but he's a fucking draft dodger on top of it

Of course, Clowny McDollhands probably thinks attendance at a military-themed boarding school makes him a "veteran"

15. Obama and Biden put their hands over their hearts, so Trmp won't do that. He has to "look better" than them.

Besides, he saluted N. Korean generals, so it's not like he's got a record of good judgement in that area.
