A video of protesters chanting "Donald Trump is going to jail" filmed as the former president was in New Hampshire to file for his presidential primary has gone viral on social media, where it has been viewed more than 1 million times.
The footage was originally filmed by the conservative Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN) and later shared by several accounts on X, formerly known as Twitter, where it collected hundreds of thousands of views and hundreds of comments.
The clip, filmed live, shows Donald Trump leaving the statehouse in Concord, New Hampshire, and getting into a vehicle as protesters gathered on location chant "lock him up" and then "Donald Trump is going to jail."
Groups of protesters yelling chants like "lock him up" have been following Trump around for months now, as the embattled president faces at least six different criminal and federal trials. Five have already been scheduled.
No other candidate in U.S. history has faced a similar legal battle ahead of the presidential election—and yet Trump is still the Republican frontrunner for 2024. As of October 23, Trump had the support of 57 percent of Republican primary voters, according to FiveThirtyEight. Backing for his immediate rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has dropped to 13.5 percent.
Trump compared himself to Nelson Mandela on Monday, saying he was the victim of federal and state prosecutors going after him for political reasons.
