Former President Donald Trump made a heartwarming visit to the firefighters of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) on Thursday after a grueling day in court. Amidst his ongoing criminal trial, Trump chose to engage directly with community heroes, delivering pizzas—an emblematic gesture of support and appreciation.

Recalling his 2021 visit on the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Trump’s gesture carried a significant echo of his commitment to acknowledging the relentless bravery of New York’s finest.

The visit comes at a critical juncture in Trump’s post-presidential life, as he faces 34 counts of falsifying business records related to payments made during the 2016 campaign. Despite these allegations, Trump remains defiant, accusing the prosecution of being politically motivated—an “election interference” orchestrated by his opponents.

“We appreciate whoever supports our members at the FDNY, no matter their political affiliation,” the fire department said.

Even as the legal proceedings attempt to tether him to the courtroom, Trump’s campaign continues unabated, with recent stops in Wisconsin and Michigan, signaling a vigorous pursuit of a return to the White House.
