My guess: Boos will overpower yeas, just as Spurs will overwhelm the Knicks in tonight’s NBA Championship Game to be attended by President Donald Trump.
Now, Trump is a native New Yorker, and he did as much to transform New York City as probably anyone in the past half-century, but he also lost two costly legal battles there.
A fraud charge, based on a law that didn’t apply and whose statute of limitations had run out, was quickly approved by a jury that included two attorneys. The other was a sexual harassment lawsuit, which was made possible only because New York State lifted its civil statutes of limitations for one year, and that yielded something like an $88-million judgment.
(My Opinion: If he actually sexually approached E. Jean Carroll, as was alleged, he should be ashamed. She wouldn’t be worth a free glance in a bar.)
Security is tighter than ever around Madison Square Garden. Fans are already irate because the outside watch party has been moved blocks away due to security concerns.
One more reason for boos over cheers.
