New York Attorney General and Donald Trump adversary Letitia James was booed during an FDNY ceremony speech on Thursday; the crowd broke into ‘Trump’ chants.
James tried to get the crowd to calm down after she took the stage to boos.
From The New York Post:
As James walked onto the podium at the Christian Cultural Center’s Brooklyn Campus, members of the crowd — made up of the families of captains, battalion chiefs and civilians who were up for promotion, as well as the firemen who work beside them — began to jeer, video shows.
“Oh, come on. We’re in a house of God. First, uhm, simmer down,” James said as she attempted to pacify the crowd before adding, “thank you for getting it out of your system.”
As James continued her speech, the booing swiftly turned to chants in support of former President Donald Trump.
“Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump,” the crowd bellowed.
James — whose office recently won a $454 million civil fraud judgment against Trump — pushed forward with her speech, praying for “those men and women who exemplify true courage.”
“Some may even be here. Some might even be booing me. But nonetheless, I pray for them,” she said.
