BREAKING: Trump makes his first appearance at the US Open. There were audible boos and a few light claps.

Important to stress the stadium is at most 10% full and the start time has been pushed to 2:30pm ET.

Rolex founder was suspected Nazi spy

MI5 suspected that the German founder of Rolex was a Nazi spy, the Telegraph can reveal.

Formerly classified documents at the National Archives show how secret service agents feared Hans Wilsdorf should be blacklisted due to his “strong” sympathies for Adolf Hitler’s regime.

The Second World War papers, dated between 1941 and 1943, state that Wilsdorf was “most objectionable” and “suspected of espionage”.

1. He got in while the crowd waited outside and still got booed

2. First the Kennedy Center, now Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Hope these poor-attendance reports become the norm for all trump-related events.

6. Of course he regards Ashe as a DEI parasite, I'm sure. nt

23. The event was not poorly attended.

Trump's motorcade kept everyone stuck on the highway, and then his Secret Service and security kept everyone standing in line to get in. The crowd filled in, with most people only missing a set or two.

[Wiz Imp]

31. You're right that it wasn't poorly attended.

But I hope your last sentence is an inadvertent slip. Missing 2 sets would mean they missed half the match as it was only 4 sets.

[Chemical Bill]

34. That was what I meant.

It looked to me that the stands weren't full until the second set was done. TSF really screwed things up for the folks who wanted to see good tennis.

[Wiz Imp]

36. I didn't watch so I didn't know.

But if I missed even 1 full set, I'd be totally pissed. If I missed the first 2 sets, I'd be so angry at Trump, I can't say what I'd want to do without getting banned. Missing a couple games-no big deal. Once it went past that, I'd be screaming for Trump to give me a refund for my overpriced ticket.

3. Good

11. That

That definitely did not sound like booing. They were cheering him.

[Wiz Imp]

14. Huh? That was clearly booing.

Maybe 10% cheers, 90% jeers.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

15. Not to my ears

Soundly almost completely cheering to me.

[bluestarone]

16. Oh BULLCRAP!!

[BeerBarrelPolka]

18. Nope

I do not hear booing.

[Wiz Imp]

17. Here's examples of booing and cheering

This video clearly sound much closer to the booing one.

If you can't hear that, then I don't know what to say.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

19. No way

It does not sound anything like your first clip.

[Wiz Imp]

26. 😲😮🤯🤦‍♂️🤦🏻🤦🏻‍♂️🙄🤪😵‍💫

Even ultra right wing outlets are agreeing he was booed:

Donald Trump booed as he causes hundreds of fans to miss US Open final

You are aware that people in New York despise Trump probably more than anywhere else? And People were forced to stand outside in line for an extra hour or two? And you seriously think they were cheering? Wow! Just Wow!! I'm speechless.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

29. If you're trying to mock me

You are failing big time. I'm stating what I hear in the clip. If you don't hear it then that's fine. Save the emoticons for someone you can bully. I assure you, I am not a person you can bully.

[Wiz Imp]

32. I assure you I'm not trying to mock you or bully you.

However, I do wonder how anyone can hear a crowd booing and think it sounds like cheers...

[beaglelover]

28. I agree, didn't sound like boos to me.

[Wiz Imp]

33. Wow! Apparently some people have never heard booing at a sporting event and don't know what it sounds like.

I assure you, that was it.

5. That image of almost empty stadium could be from one of his many Bund rallies.

Looking out at all those empty seats, Trump should feel right at home

[IrishAfricanAmerican]

8. They held the crowd outside until he made his "official entrance" Fucking loser!

[Bev54]

21. The asshole being there, also caused a huge traffic jam which made them delay the matches so

people could get in. He no doubt thought there was not enough people there to hear any boos but he was wrong.

[Chemical Bill]

24. Security had to search...

for rotten eggs and fruit, anything that could be thrown. Also banners and protest signs rolled up in people's sleeves.

[BigmanPigman]

7. Weren't the news companies told that they were not allowed

to show any booing by the crowd before it even started?

[TheRickles]

25. Yes. And the USTA was behind that move - didn't want to risk Trump's ire.

[calimary]

27. Wouldn't surprise me.

[Submariner]

10. There's still time to throw eggs and barf on them

I see the First Tramp and her perky kidneys are here. The left one isn't a low hanger anymore. Good for them.

[Botany]

12. Good to see that spokesperson KKKaroline McLevit knows how to do the clap for dear leader clap

[Aviation Pro]

13. Why is that motherfucking pedophile rendering a hand salute?

Put those little fingers down, you fucking draft dodger.

[tetedur]

20. I wonder if he's going to steal this trophy

or attend the award ceremony and take credit for the winner.

[3catwoman3]

35. My first thought, too - risky to let him so near the trophy.

He’ll try to steal it and claim he won the tournament.

[calimary]

22. Boy, what a turnout!

Not!

[EnergizedLib]

30. I guess the National Guard will next go to New York
