The match, originally scheduled for 2 pm EDT, began 30 minutes late due to it.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/> Kevin, a man from Brooklyn working in private equity, said he waited 1.5 hrs and blamed Trump for the delay. \u201cOne hundred percent him. Very selfish. He should know an event like this would be held up for him, especially in a city that hates him,\u201d he said to Reuters.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/> Another source told Page Six that the event was absolute chaos. \u201cCars can\u2019t get into parking lots and people are walking miles.
