Over the course of the past few years, New York Mets ace Matt Harvey has pretty much been a hero to all New York sports fans. When you’re as good as he is on the mound and you don’t play for the Yankees, it’s refreshing to a city that’s always looking for a new hero.

Harvey was recently on the new golf course in the Bronx that is owned by none other than Donald Trump. As we know, with his controversial presidential campaign, Trump isn’t exactly the most popular person in the country, much less New York. Well after the golf outing, Harvey took to Instagram to thank Trump for his little outing, and the backlash immediately came out. He deleted the post, but after all, this is the internet — once it’s out there for just a little bit, it’s game over.
