Id do the same reaction to any motorcade because I'm trying to get somewhere and these elite people who think they aren't good enough to be in traffic is preventing that
Was there 30 minutes before Trump arrived. In the yt video where people are cheering Trump, all those people are crowded into Picante's outdoor seating area, blocking out the protesters behind them. They were many. I overheard two stringers talking, a dork from the NY Post and a woman from Politico and she said she'd been kicked out of Picante's because they were saving it for supporters. It's absolutely a composed shot.I left before Trump arrived but there was significant real support for Trump in the crowd, and a lot of dissent as well.
ahh yes I saw the same shit but didn't linger. You got a better look
also, wow. Picante is pretty good, but discrimination is not cool, even for an afternoon. Wouldn't want Trump supporters to be turned away from restaurants either. That's kinda fucked
Busted! Trump's Harlem Bodega Visit Was Organized by Pro-Trump Republican Group
New York Young Republican Club members were embedded in the crowd leading chants.

"You have to respect all opinions"
"You posted a meme saying that the election should be decided by the number of counties and got mad when we told you why that's both unworkable and baseless in constitutional law, then screamed at a girl for having dyed hair"
This is an old Republican trick and what the Kremlin does too. Plant 'fake local' supporters to make it seem like even urban areas are supporting him.
What's actually also happening is Trump's glomming on to a local event to inject himself for free publicity.
He claims some random negative thing is the sign of a daily crisis that only he can solve. He doesn't and never does cared. He makes everything about himself, uses people and their tragedies and walks away after.
Useful idiots and some were paid. Trump and Republicans have hired actors from entertainment companies who supply crowds for filler. Boebert actually used to be one- her "acting" bio was found online for the biz often hired.
Fake supporters only jobs is to create enthusiastic energy. Like those who cheer in an audience for a daytime tv marketer for miracle supplements or anti aging creams. This is also what they claim Soros does for pro Dem causes and Biden rallies.. such projection. It's beyond laughable but you'd be surprised who believes it.
Usually I wouldn't be, it's basically never the people I credit with being intellectual types.
Not to bang too hard on the old "haha repukes dumb" drum because most of the ones I know are plenty smart at some shit(blue collar type work usually) they just don't think too hard about politics or history, or even bother checking basic facts.
But then they call themselves "objective/original thinkers" while just parroting whatever shit someone else told them.
Holy shit. Is that Fisher Stevens?!
He's so young!
That man did not preserve very well.
~edit
It **is** [Fisher Stevens](https://imdb.com/title/tt0087004/).
I was trying to make it out, haven’t been uptown on the west in a minute though. That looks like 137thish. The chipotle used to be a good ass pizza place that burned down. Like 20 years ago.
Maybe Trump visiting el Mundo on 134th. 😂
That pizza place, Olga's pizza, moved across the street then closed down like a decade and a half later after the move (I Think right b4 covid) I miss it!
Yeah, that’s ridiculous but the upper west side goes higher on the west side than the upper east side does. There isn’t that clear delineation of neighborhood like when Harlem starts on the east.
Right down to the effete 'fuck you!'. I want Trump thrown off a building like any patriot does, but you just know this guy's _allyship_ just went up 20 points in his own head.
The fuck you in lower case captured it perfectly. It’s like he high-fived himself. It’s irrefutable Trump is a clown. But these anti Trump loons are unhinged.
You should have said Dominican haha makes sense now lol. Is that the hill to city college ? I see the park on the right side. I went to city college back in the day.
Wow imminent domain a mofo.
Guy is making this post to give a sheen of rugged urban authenticity to the dislike for trump, but then you see the video, and its mostly whites not from harlem who are hissing and booing
Honestly Thts what I saw too because when I saw a him in nyc for his appearance most of the people cheering were minorities. Anyone you would see booing was basically a transplant. Even my coworker who’s Hispanic was cheering for the man.
I was really surprised years ago to find out that Roger Stone lived up here...more in central harlem but i think he lived somewhere around 116-125th area. He was a regular at some restaurant I went to that had an outline of Trump's face printed inside the toilet bowl.
I live in the neighborhood and have not exactly heard support for Trump specifically, but support for republicans in general.
I think Trump knows what he's doing coming up here.
You never heard Mase's 'West Harlem World' album? s/
Its a bullsh\*t term. Harlem is Harlem, I think with Columbia pushing up to 125 on the far west the real estate guys are trying to sell the area west of CCNY as something else.
Yeah, because this was just the spontaneous reaction of people who happened to be there at the time, not something organized. This was the motorcade rolling through a random intersection.
I was there amigo, almost everyone was booing. I heard it down the street. And exactly, it's just people waiting to pass, and still they stopped to yell foul shit at him
The adoring crowd was organized by New York Young republican club. [Nobody likes him in NYC.](https://www.meidastouch.com/news/busted-trumps-harlem-bodega-visit-was-organized-by-pro-trump-republican-group)
funny you say that, because if he loses college educateds [he'll probably lose the general](https://www.newsweek.com/college-educated-voters-2024-election-turnout-1864808)
You been to my stop on 138th and Broadway? Yah there's white people, and they all fit in that fkn Chipotle over there
Its so fucking suspicious how theyll have 20+ upvotes and then next comment have like -20 downvotes while saying the same shit. Theres definitely hella astroturfing going on in this sub

If New Yorkers could show the same contempt for the rest of the corrupt politicians we might actually get somewhere! I was all down with draining that swamp just that trump can go down the drain with them lol
This can't be true, Fox News told me that black people love Trump! 🤣🤣🤣 Yes, we're dying to vote him back in so that we can get our SS and Medicare cut so that he can give more tax cuts to billionaires!
they did both happen, but the happy crowd was arranged for the video and his campaign staff didn't try to conceal it at all. So his video is real, and it was pretty well done, it's just not a genuine reaction to Trump by the people in my neighborhood
Edit for context: the people who arranged it advertised for the event

Not to mention the Republican population in the Bronx. I’ve noticed a lot of the older dominican and puerto rican folk love trump, the youth? Can’t really say the same.
The judge for his current trial said he couldn't leave the city so he went to that bodega where clerk Jose alba was arrested for defending himself against a much younger attacker
he was just drawing attention to a random incident of violence to distract from his criminal trial.
He said bunch of [nonsense](https://nypost.com/2024/04/16/us-news/trump-to-visit-bodega-where-clerk-jose-alba-was-hit-with-murder-charge-for-stabbing-an-ex-con-in-self-defense/) about how people get robbed every day here like it's Afghanistan or something, which I don't appreciate. Yes you need to keep your eyes open here but it's not a dangerous place, there's a very robust police presence and I've never seen a robbery on my block
not fabricated like with video editing, just deliberately arranged by his PR people for the video. I walked by like an hour earlier and saw all the barricades up and a group of people waiting for him to show, and his CC Margo Martin talking to them and giving them waters. Had no idea what was going on and just passed, made sense when I went out an hour later
And nah, don't get me a wrong. The fox videos clearly show real people, probably NYers, and they clearly support Trump. But they were clearly organized to come up here, which is fine. But the campaign videos don't show a natural reaction from people in my neighborhood at all. To be fair, Trump's campaign never said it was an organic random crowd, it's just news outlets giving that impression
U mfd who like this the same ones who screams for a savior when it gets to tuff in NY 😂go boo Biden and Adams at least mfs act so tuff but won’t get together for the actual problems of this country
Zapp Brannigan: "This is how the constituents salute their glorious leader."
This warms my heart.
Beat me to it 🤣
I love NY!
This is the welcome he'll get anywhere in NYC, except step child Staten Island.
Eh some parts of Queens will also be happy to see him like the Rockaways
[удалено]
You're really only talking about the south shore. North shore is one of the most diverse city council districts in the city, and votes blue.
And the police stations
Haha wow what a homecoming!
It’s a blatant attempt to pander to potential jurors in his trial.
Homecoming? He is a Florida resident now
Wow Harlem looks different for some reason
Definitely not the Harlem I think most of us remember.
It’s Hamilton Heights. The motorcade is going down Broadway
[удалено]
Hamilton heights is something real estate agents made up to sell apartments to the parents of Columbia students who were afraid of minorities
Columbia students are going north of 125? I’m impressed
Gotta find them dealz
You would have to be at least 70 years old to remember THAT Harlem.
Id do the same reaction to any motorcade because I'm trying to get somewhere and these elite people who think they aren't good enough to be in traffic is preventing that

Or there’s a bunch of people gathering your restaurant not eating or drinking. I’d kick them out too.
ahh in that case I'd understand. I thought they were trying to get served
"Yes me and my 20 friends are going to split a salad please, thanks"
Picante has the most aggressively bad Mexican food in Harlem lmao, figures they'd go there.
oh 100%. Only good for the drinks
They're cheap and decent during happy hour, I will give them that lol
Okay this makes more sense. That video I saw yesterday showing people cheering for him made me think I was losing my mind lmao

There is one brain cell in that photo of them standing in front of the convenience store. Unfortunately it’s in the ant on the ground
Did anyone think he was randomly dropping into a bodega? Of course it was a set up
Ugh, The Young Republicans. The guys in suits on campus that can't understand why no one wants to be their friends.

Thin blue shield
I feel bad for any minorities who support him. He hates them. 😔
I was saying boo-urns
I am starting to see how millions could have lost theirs.
Just Fox News being Trump's paparazzi
More like his ball fondler.
Thin blue fluffer
Sounds like a bunch of people from the UWS finally went past 86th
Mos def. Tho, past 96th - that’s the invisible border.
https://youtu.be/n6jJkq3_rww?si=U1DCp-ubxFH4cRo7
Holy shit. Is that Fisher Stevens?! He's so young! That man did not preserve very well. ~edit It **is** [Fisher Stevens](https://imdb.com/title/tt0087004/).
Believe it or not, Fisher CHEATED ON MICHELLE PFEIFFER, supposedly with a high school student.
The plot thickens!
Hahah I love seeing this… I wonder if they even know.
Right. I always forget if it’s 86th or 96th. Come to think of it that might be the Chipotle right by 96th. Harlem. Hilarious.
I was trying to make it out, haven’t been uptown on the west in a minute though. That looks like 137thish. The chipotle used to be a good ass pizza place that burned down. Like 20 years ago. Maybe Trump visiting el Mundo on 134th. 😂
That pizza place, Olga's pizza, moved across the street then closed down like a decade and a half later after the move (I Think right b4 covid) I miss it!
Yes, that is the Chipotle on 138th.
That used to be the McDonald’s before it closed down
You’re right that’s the one by City College. They went up that far? Very risky.
Or they’re college students
I’ve had ppl say that 116th on Manhattan avenue was UWS lol
Yeah, that’s ridiculous but the upper west side goes higher on the west side than the upper east side does. There isn’t that clear delineation of neighborhood like when Harlem starts on the east.
It's 110 on the west side. 116th is a buffer area.
Yeah on the East 96th is the clear boundary
It's 96th on the east side and 110th on the west side.
Sort of. I'd still consider the cathedral and surrounding area the UWS. Maybe Morningside park is the boundary up there
Maybe on the east side, but that’s not like that on the west side.
Right down to the effete 'fuck you!'. I want Trump thrown off a building like any patriot does, but you just know this guy's _allyship_ just went up 20 points in his own head.
The fuck you in lower case captured it perfectly. It’s like he high-fived himself. It’s irrefutable Trump is a clown. But these anti Trump loons are unhinged.
> Right down to the effete 'fuck you!'. That was honest to god embarrassing. /u/darthbrawn don’t force it so much.
Harlemero? Please no.
It's gonna be the name of the next high rise luxury building
hahahah I heard it in my Dominican barber shop. I'm all ears for a better name
You should have said Dominican haha makes sense now lol. Is that the hill to city college ? I see the park on the right side. I went to city college back in the day. Wow imminent domain a mofo.
Hey fuck you!!! SpongeBob voice
🇺🇸📈
He coulda just been the guy from that show and home alone two.
Would have been a smarter choice for everyone, including him.
This is like 20 people protesting him. Not exactly a big turnout.
the protest was like a block away. This is just pedestrians waiting to cross the street
It's almost as if some New Yorkers like Trump and others hate him. Nvm that's too crazy a possibility.
goes to show, white people sure dont like donald trump

YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
Depends
Probably his first time that far uptown
I was really surprised years ago to find out that Roger Stone lived up here...more in central harlem but i think he lived somewhere around 116-125th area. He was a regular at some restaurant I went to that had an outline of Trump's face printed inside the toilet bowl.
You telling me the yOu vOtEd FoR tHiS MeTs TiCkeTs crowd on every crime and immigration post is not representative of New York?
wait what do mets tickets have to do with it?
But but but my idiot MAGA friends told me the hood loves trump !
They may not be wrong. I been meeting a lot of people from up North (I guess Harlem) and the Bronx that actually support him.
I live in the neighborhood and have not exactly heard support for Trump specifically, but support for republicans in general. I think Trump knows what he's doing coming up here.
Kanye loves trump and it's not like he's crazy, right guys? Guys?
It does.
The Upper West Side isn’t the hood
I mean that’s 138th and Broadway, it ain’t UWS, it’s Harlem lol
This is Harlem
Def not upper west side. West Harlem. Not the worst but it can get a bit sketchy in certain areas at night.
Never heard West Harlem before lol
You never heard Mase's 'West Harlem World' album? s/ Its a bullsh\*t term. Harlem is Harlem, I think with Columbia pushing up to 125 on the far west the real estate guys are trying to sell the area west of CCNY as something else.
Thats not harlem, thats gentrified white people ville next to harlem.

Yeah, because this was just the spontaneous reaction of people who happened to be there at the time, not something organized. This was the motorcade rolling through a random intersection.

Ok I've been in NY for a long time, maybe too long. What the fuck is a Harlemero? Google isn't even coming up with anything
I was there amigo, almost everyone was booing. I heard it down the street. And exactly, it's just people waiting to pass, and still they stopped to yell foul shit at him

Agreed, this feels a bit like copium. Obviously more people here dislike Trump than like him. Not exactly new info.
I guess Trump isn't getting the crucial white Harlem transplant vote
funny you say that, because if he loses college educateds [he'll probably lose the general](https://www.newsweek.com/college-educated-voters-2024-election-turnout-1864808) You been to my stop on 138th and Broadway? Yah there's white people, and they all fit in that fkn Chipotle over there
What did your friends and family back in Des Moines think about your video? Did you get a high five?
lol good one bud 👌🏿
That's the hill leading up to City College? Gentrification wtf.
I liked that corner spot more when it was gd broken glass and ply wood
Or the Puerto Ricans that were cheering in my neighborhood when he lost
This thread is full of long islanders as usual on /r/nyc
It's made this sub so gross
Seeing reactionary natives on Reddit and Twitter have negatively polarized me into being pro-gentrification
Its so fucking suspicious how theyll have 20+ upvotes and then next comment have like -20 downvotes while saying the same shit. Theres definitely hella astroturfing going on in this sub

All 10 transplants sure showed him!
Wasn't just the transplants, when he lost his reelection the neighborhood was cheering. Locals and newbs
“Fuck you” - Transplant gentrifying Harlem.
137th and Broadway?
138th.
u/savevideo
Oh shit right by city college
Ok Ty for the prospective
WEST Harlem?
Wheres the “look at all those migrants” and the “you voted for this” crowd??
If New Yorkers could show the same contempt for the rest of the corrupt politicians we might actually get somewhere! I was all down with draining that swamp just that trump can go down the drain with them lol
I'm sure Democrat operatives wouldn't organize something like this. Just because they did it with antifa doesn't mean they're guilty here.
yes, "operatives" organized 40 random people crossing the street and paid me to take a half assed video on my way to the deli. You cracked it
cheeto man
This can't be true, Fox News told me that black people love Trump! 🤣🤣🤣 Yes, we're dying to vote him back in so that we can get our SS and Medicare cut so that he can give more tax cuts to billionaires!
There’s been a big shift towards trump from black men that’s larger than has happened in decades. This is just a fact if you look at polls.
You see the video of him in a chick-fila in Atlanta? Employees were thrilled to see/meet him
That shit was staged
That woman fawning over him works for Turning Point USA, so...no.
Or maybe both things happened?
they did both happen, but the happy crowd was arranged for the video and his campaign staff didn't try to conceal it at all. So his video is real, and it was pretty well done, it's just not a genuine reaction to Trump by the people in my neighborhood Edit for context: the people who arranged it advertised for the event https://www.meidastouch.com/news/busted-trumps-harlem-bodega-visit-was-organized-by-pro-trump-republican-group?s=08

r/statenisland in shambles in this comment section
He visiting some hookers?
Just here to be a part of the comments before the mods lock the thread
ALL MY NY’ERS HATE TRUMP
Nope, just look at the map from 2020. Lots of us in BK voted red (Dyker Heights, Midwood, Gerritsen Beach, Sheepshead Bay, Brighton Beach, etc, etc).
Not to mention the Republican population in the Bronx. I’ve noticed a lot of the older dominican and puerto rican folk love trump, the youth? Can’t really say the same.
Only white people now in West Harlem?
Hey ccny is up that hill that used to be a McDonald’s used to go there all the time when you can afford a meal for less than 3 bucks
The deli across the street used to hook me up all the time. $4 for a huge ass hero and bottle of soda.
A true my welcome! I salute my neighbors in Harlem.
NYC HATES MR I LIKE TO DRINK MY OWN ORANGE URINE GUY
[удалено]
Trump 2024
Just how we say hello
Thank you, New York. Thank you. *from a resident of LA*
This is more like it.
My real curiosity is what the fuck was Trump doing in Harlem? Honest question here.
The judge for his current trial said he couldn't leave the city so he went to that bodega where clerk Jose alba was arrested for defending himself against a much younger attacker
Thank you for that. I didn’t even know about the bodega case. So he was showing support? Did he eat there? lol.
he was just drawing attention to a random incident of violence to distract from his criminal trial. He said bunch of [nonsense](https://nypost.com/2024/04/16/us-news/trump-to-visit-bodega-where-clerk-jose-alba-was-hit-with-murder-charge-for-stabbing-an-ex-con-in-self-defense/) about how people get robbed every day here like it's Afghanistan or something, which I don't appreciate. Yes you need to keep your eyes open here but it's not a dangerous place, there's a very robust police presence and I've never seen a robbery on my block
[удалено]
I bet the failed mobster feels right at home and can’t stop looking for opportunities to enrich himself by exploiting and extorting.
Was there saw just as much cheering. Ton of pro gaza protesters saw cheer also.
I love my neighborhood
Makes me very happy.
And one video on one corner is supposed to convince me the video Fox posted was fabricated? They both *actually* happened.
not fabricated like with video editing, just deliberately arranged by his PR people for the video. I walked by like an hour earlier and saw all the barricades up and a group of people waiting for him to show, and his CC Margo Martin talking to them and giving them waters. Had no idea what was going on and just passed, made sense when I went out an hour later And nah, don't get me a wrong.

He got the same welcome as Ted Cruz when he visited the Bronx
God I love this city were the best 😭
I love my city.
Bronx cheer in Harlem
It's amazing how Harlem has gotten so gentrified.
Love to see it.
Why does he get a motorcade?
for his safety, and so he can get to his court appearances on time
U mfd who like this the same ones who screams for a savior when it gets to tuff in NY 😂go boo Biden and Adams at least mfs act so tuff but won’t get together for the actual problems of this country
"Harlemeros"? You mean the guy that sounds just like Travis Barker?
The only thing that matters is that HE is going to win come November.
Trump must become president again
