Former President Donald Trump surrendered to New York authorities ahead of his arraignment Tuesday on charges related to alleged hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels. Obviously, it’s a fairly massive deal… unless you live in New York. This is literally just another Tuesday for them, and definitely not, say, Games 1, 2, 5, or 7 of a Knicks first-round appearance.

Trump, who pleaded not guilty to the 34 charges, has tried to make his brand as synonymous with New York as (Yankees) pinstripes and pizza for years, and despite what every cable news outlet has been screaming, nobody really gives a shit. New Yorkers are the kings of “This fucking guy”-ing people, and it sounds like that’s exactly their reaction to any headaches the former president’s indictment has foisted upon their day-to-day subway rides.

The Giants, Aaron Rodgers, Yankees, Mets, Knicks, and Rangers are all more front of mind in the Big Apple than this entire Trump ordeal. . . Regardless of why this is a sideshow, it will likely end up being simply another sideshow — one of the countless unseemly entries on a never-ending list of why Trump is unfit to run a Jimmy John’s let alone the free world.

There was a recent article about Trump’s obsession with New York and how it’s now delivering his comeuppance as if people haven’t been more than happy to tell him to go fuck himself for decades. Today is no more, or less, interesting than any other in New York, and we can all take notes because ignoring the orange buffoon seems like the best way to let him know that he’s not important or special or whatever he’s striving to be.
