“THE HEROES ARE WAKING UP!” commented Students for Trump chair Ryan Fournier.
Newsweek writes the crowd was also unruly at the start of her address, reporting, “Upon beginning her speech, many in the crowd booed James, prompting her to say, ‘Come on, we’re in a house of God…simmer down.’”
The pro-Trump outburst comes as the former president has been fined $355 million in penalties in a case prosecuted by the NY AG, with James also threatening to seize his properties if he fails to pay.
The enthusiastic shouts illustrate support is thriving for the former president in NYC.
