Donald Trump: Congratulations to Jim Dolan and the New York Knicks!!! What a year it has been but, even more so, what incredible playoff wins we have all witnessed, especially the last four - Maybe the greatest in the history of basketball.

President DONALD J. TRUMP
A Mexican tax official has fouled out of his state government post. Héctor Contreras Mercader abruptly resigned Thursday as director of the state of Quintana Roo’s Tax Administration Service after a firestorm erupted over how he landed pricey seats near President Trump to watch the Knicks take on the Spurs at Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden. Photographers caught Contreras, sporting a Knicks star Jalen Brunson jersey, and his son, wearing a Karl-Anthony Towns jersey, in section 107, row 22 with Trump in the background during the national anthem Monday night.
Podcaster Joe Rogan urged President Trump to “stick to the UFC” after Knicks fans booed the president at Game 3 of the NBA Finals — saying sports fanatics will “boo him everywhere else.” During Game 3 Monday evening, the president — sitting in MSG boss James Dolan’s suite — was loudly booed by Knicks devotees while he was shown on the big screen during the national anthem, though there were also some chants of “USA! USA!” at another point. “Yeah, he should stick to the UFC,” the host of “The Joe Rogan Experience” said. “They’re gonna boo him everywhere else.”

SNY Knicks: James Dolan on @CartonShowWFAN says that the secret service didn't demand the extra security around MSG, it was the NYPD Commissioner's Office: "This was the plan all along, she used the president coming as an excuse to set it up"
Aaron Rupar: Q: What did you think of the reception you got from Knicks fans tonight? TRUMP: I thought great. I thought it was amazing, actually. It was I think mostly cheers. (Trump was loudly booed)
NBA Base: Stephen A. Smith: “There was footage of him on camera not looking awake. Dolan sitting right next to him. Both of them look like they were sleeping. You don't expect to hear that from a president that called his predecessor ‘Sleepy Joe’… I'm telling my producers inside the Garden last night, we were told that he was telling folks he is coming back for Game 4, so we don't know what the hell the truth is. All I'm trying to say is that no president — Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, HW, I don't give a damn if it was Reagan — no sitting president should be at an NBA Finals game at Madison Square Garden.”
Cardi B, who performed the halftime show in front of the home crowd, hopped on Instagram Live early Tuesday (June 9), during which she spoke on Donald Trump being in the building and the “dark” vibe he brought to the arena. “It probably was,” she said in response to a fan calling Trump’s attendance bad luck. “You can’t stop the president from f–king going to a game, but it did feel a little dark in there. It’s OK.”
Cardi continued while eating a SpongeBob ice cream bar: “It felt kinda dark. You know how it felt like in there? It felt like the principal was there and everybody had to be on their best behavior.”
