Ivanka Trump can’t help but marvel at the Mets’ wild October ride: ‘OMG!’

The New York Mets leave pretty much everyone speechless, including Ivanka Trump.

The Mets advanced to the National League Championship Series on Wednesday after their 4-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 4 of the NLDS.

All four runs came on a grand slam by Francisco Lindor, because of course that was the case; he’s been their MVP all season, and some think he should get the NL vote over Shohei Ohtani.

Still, Lindor brought the party to Citi Field on Wednesday, and after the game, the former president’s daughter couldn’t contain her excitement — and all she needed was nine characters.

“OMG! METS” Trump posted on X.

The interjection could be out of sheer excitement, but “OMG” has been the team’s rallying cry since the summer. Mets infielder Jose Iglesias has released a song of the same title, and it has become every Mets fan’s favorite song.

After each home run, members of the Mets take a photo holding a bright orange sign that reads “OMG.”

FRANCISCO LINDOR’S GRAND SLAM LIFTS METS IN NLCS AS THE MAGIC RIDE CONTINUES

The Trumps are no strangers to the Mets; Donald Trump attended Game 7 of the 2006 National League Championship Series at Shea Stadium and was seen in many photos immediately after Carlos Beltran’s infamous strikeout.

The Mets are starting to feel like a team of destiny. New York had a chance to be eliminated from postseason contention on the final day of the season, but the Mets split a wild doubleheader to advance. Then in their wildcard series they were two zeros away from the home game.

2-0 behind, Pete Alonso hit a three-run homer. It was the first in MLB history for a player when his team trailed in the ninth inning or later of a winner-take-all postseason game.
