Former President Trump made surprise visits to New York City police and fire stations on Saturday, the 20th anniversary of the Sept.11 terror attacks, offering brief remarks and posing for pictures as he greeted first responders. Trump, who did not join President Biden or a number of his predecessors at any of the memorial ceremonies held at the sites of the devastating plane attacks Saturday, stopped in at a New York City Police Department station in Manhattan to speak to a group of officers he called “incredible people.” “What an incredible job you do,” he said. “ I grew up with you, and you are New York’s finest.” The former president went on to praise the Police Benevolent Association, the city’s largest police union, which in the months ahead of the November 2020 election backed Trump, breaking a long-standing tradition of not issuing presidential endorsements.
