Trump announces plans to attend Yankees game on September 11 after attending remembrance at Pentagon
Trump to attend another big sports game in New York on September 11
- Donald Trump is scheduled to attend a New York Yankees baseball game on Thursday, following his participation in a remembrance ceremony for the 24th anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.
- The president will first visit the Pentagon memorial in the morning before heading to Yankees Stadium in the Bronx for the evening game against the Detroit Tigers.
- It remains uncertain whether there will be an official commemoration of the 9/11 tragedy at the baseball game or if Trump will be involved in any such event.
- Social media reaction to Trump's planned attendance has been divided, with some viewing it as a show of solidarity, while others questioned his presence given past public receptions.
- This follows a mixed reception at the recent U.S. Open final in Queens, where Trump's appearance on the big screen was met with both boos and cheers, and the White House dismissed reports of booing as "fake news".
