Ben Stiller’s basketball fandom on Saturday clashed with breaking news on the shooting outside the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, leading some Republicans to question the reason behind one of his social media posts.
Stiller, known for his avid support of the New York Knicks, used his X account for several hours to react to the key plays by the team as they evened up their NBA Playoffs series against the Atlanta Hawks in a Game 4 win on the road.
The game happened to wrap up around 8:53 p.m. ET, mere minutes after The Associated Press, Reuters and other news-related accounts began to send out alerts on U.S. Secret Service agents removing Trump from the dinner.
That’s when Stiller delivered this simple three-word post to his followers: “Got it done.”
While New Yorkers and Stiller’s followers are quite familiar with his love for the Knicks, his post caught the attention of some folks in MAGA world.
