Fans at Yankee Stadium go viral for their Trump tribute during ‘God Bless America’ performance.
Supporters of former President Donald Trump display massive “Trump or Death” flag at Yankee Stadium
During the singing of “God Bless America” at Yankee Stadium in New York City, supporters of former President Donald Trump made a bold statement. They unveiled a massive “Trump or Death: 1776-2024” flag from the terrace level along the first-base line during the Yankees’ game against the Detroit Tigers.
A video of the event was uploaded to the X social media platform by freelance video journalist Oliya Scootercaster, gaining significant attention.

Trump campaign social media ”influencer” Laura Loomer shared another view of the action and identified Dion Cini as the person responsible for displaying the flag at the game. Cini, known as a “professional provocateur,” sells the “Trump or Death” flag on his website, TrumpSwag.com.

Scootercaster’s video quickly gained attention, accumulating 3 million “views” on the X platform as of Thursday afternoon.
A similar “Trump 2024 Finish The Wall” flag was also displayed at a matinee game at the ballpark on Sunday. This flag is also available for purchase on Dion Cini’s website.

Traditionally, during the playing of “God Bless America,” baseball fans are expected to stand, remove their hats, and place their hands over their hearts. This tradition was added to MLB’s seventh-inning stretch after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
It is worth noting that Donald Trump himself is a lifelong Yankees fan, with close relationships with legendary closer Mariano Rivera and deceased longtime owner George Steinbrenner, according to NBC News.
The Yankees emerged victorious in the Wednesday contest against the Tigers, with a score of 4-3, improving their overall record. However, on Thursday, the team found themselves in last place in the American East, trailing the first-place Baltimore Orioles by 18 games.
