He was looking for the Bronx shear.
Former President Donald Trump dropped in at Knockout Barber in The Bronx Thursday — his second recent Boogie-Down visit as the presidential election inches closer.
The visit — which was part of an upcoming “Fox & Friends” segment — took the shop’s co-owner Javier Rodriguez by surprise.
“This happened out of, honestly, nowhere,” he told reporters afterward.
Rodriguez kept tight-lipped as to what he and the 2024 Republican presidential candidate talked about besides discussing The Bronx and local schools.
“I’m happy with the conservations we had,” he said.
“I feel like he is who is.”
A crowd of supporters, including one sporting a “Make Barbers Great Again” shirt, and protesters alike gathered outside Castle Hill Avenue barber shop to catch a glimpse of Trump.
But onlookers’ views were blocked by a tent erected over the shop’s entrance, an apparent effort by Secret Service agents to protect Trump, who has seen two recent assassination attempts.
The stop was part of “Fox & Friends” co-host Lawrence Jones’ series of barbershop visits.
An interview with Trump in the shop will be aired Oct. 21 on Fox News morning show.
“You guys are the same as me,” the billionaire Trump, 78, told barbershop patrons, according to preview clip shown on “Fox & Friends.”
“It’s the same stuff. We were born the same way. I grew up in Queens and all of that.”
Trump, recounting the visit during a Friday morning appearance on “Fox & Friends,” boasted about polling showing he’s making inroads with black and Hispanic voters.
The Queens native last made a stop in the Bronx during May as part of what his campaign said was a strategy to reach out to traditionally Democratic voters.
He remains unlikely to win his home state of New York, however.
A recent Siena College poll found 55% of likely Empire State voters surveyed said they’d pick Vice President Kamala Harris, while 42% would go for Trump.
For more than a year, public polls have indicated that Trump is on course to do better with black voters than any Republican nominee since Richard Nixon in 1960.
Trump won just 8% of black voters against Hillary Clinton in 2016, but managed to crack double-digits against Biden in 2020, winning 12% of the demographic, according to CNN exit polls.
A New York Times/Siena College poll of likely black voters published last week found Trump getting 15% support against Harris, including 20% of black men, 12% of black women — and 21% of black voters aged 18-29.
The 45th president also cracked double digits among college graduates (14%) and non-college graduates (15%) and even got 5% among those who said they voted for Biden four years ago.
