The Queens-born former president made a notable error while honoring “New York’s Bravest.”
It’s not the first time a member of the Trump family has used the “NYFD” acronym.
The former president’s son, Eric Trump, thanked the “amazing men and women of the NYFD” for extinguishing a deadly fire that broke out in a residential apartment at Trump Tower in 2018.
Critics jokingly described the former president, who once reportedly left a Miami restaurant after promising “food for everyone,” as a “real NYC ‘Man of the People’” after he neglected to use the right acronym.
The real NYC ‘Man of the People’ doesn’t know it’s FDNY despite spending his entire life in the city. pic.twitter.com/EOcPvpU1wZ

I’m not from NYC like Trump, but I always thought it was FDNY. pic.twitter.com/WxfVaTN7n2

At the same time NYC firefighters were putting out the flames of the WTC, Donald Trump was on TV bragging that his building was now the highest in Manhattan. He doesn’t give a rip about them. I don’t understand why all these people he insults love him so much. A bizarre cult. pic.twitter.com/RiQFkRar5H
