Former President Donald Trump made a brief visit to a firehouse in Midtown Manhattan on Thursday, delivering pizzas to the firefighters after appearing in court for his hush money trial. Trump’s visit sparked mixed reactions, with some praising the gesture while others criticized him for incorrectly referring to the ‘FDNY’ as ‘NYFD’ in social media posts. Trump’s son, Eric, made a similar mistake in 2018, prompting mockery and accusations of ignorance about the city he has always called home.
