Kai Trump, granddaughter of former President Donald Trump, has been criticized for allegedly altering the audio of a video she shared from an NBA Finals game at Madison Square Garden. The video, which features her and her grandfather on the jumbotron, was posted on Instagram after Game 3 on June 5, 2026. During the game, Donald Trump faced a chorus of boos from Knicks fans while the national anthem was played. However, the audio in Kai's video did not include the boos, instead featuring generic crowd noise and cheers. Commenters on her post accused her of editing the audio to remove the negative reactions. The app she used, 15SOF, captures moments from the big screen but does not include the national anthem in its videos. Kai Trump did not respond to requests for comment. Donald Trump later claimed he received a warm welcome at the game, stating he thought the crowd's reaction was enthusiastic.
