Videos shot by a campaign staffer showed people lined up along the route into the stadium waving Trump flags and chanting “USA!” The crowd inside the stadium also burst into deafening cheers as Trump entered:
From arrival to exit, the crowd in South Carolina was absolutely ROWDY for President Trump.

The raucous welcome occurred in Republican presidential candidate and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley’s home state. Haley is currently competing against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for the second place spot, both trailing Trump.
