Donald Trump was welcomed to Yankee Stadium Thursday in not the best of fashions: waves of boos from the New York crowd.<\/p>\n

The president attended that night\u2019s game against the Detroit Tigers with heightened security in the form of bulletproof glass<\/a> at the front of his suite. But that couldn\u2019t stop the sound of fans\u2019 disapproval from reaching his ears.<\/p>\n

Although there were a smattering of cheers and claps, the response when Trump made his way to his seat in the Steinbrenner suite was mostly negative.<\/p>\n

When the president was shown on the big screen later on during the national anthem, there seemed to be more cheers, though boos could still be heard.<\/p>\n

The White House did not immediately respond when asked by the Daily Beast to give its interpretation of Trump\u2019s reception at the game. <\/p>\n

Thursday was the second time in less than a week that the president received a frosty greeting by fans at a professional sporting event in his hometown. Last Sunday, he was booed at the U.S. Open, which had to delay the men\u2019s final because extra security measures kept hundreds of fans waiting outside the stadium.<\/p>\n

Before his attendance at Yankee Stadium, Trump\u2019s most recent stop at an MLB game as president came in 2019 at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., for Game 5 of the World Series. There, too, he was booed and jeered.<\/p>\n

Before Thursday\u2019s game, Trump had to go elsewhere to find a decidedly positive audience: the home team\u2019s clubhouse. There, he talked about his friendship with former Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, and said this year\u2019s team would \u201cgo all the way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Donald Trump was welcomed to Yankee Stadium Thursday in not the best of fashions: waves of boos from…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":137658,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[49,48,1377,82],"class_list":["post-137657","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-donald-j-trump","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137657","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137657"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137657\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/137658"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137657"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137657"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137657"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
