President Biden arrived in Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday to speak where a “small” crowd of supporters and protesters awaited his arrival, according to a local report.
Several supporters gathered to greet the president’s motorsport, reports WSYX, ABC Television subsidiary, noting that the crowd roughly doubled when Biden left.
“It’s something I’ve never experienced before, so it’s cool to see something new and see the president in person for the first time,” said one participant in the local news outfit.
In addition to supporters, the report noted that there were about 20 protesters present, some of whom waved Trump 2020 flags, and that there was at least one sign with the caption “Biden is not my president.”
