A protester at a Donald Trump rally in New Hampshire was quickly escorted out after disrupting the event and attempting to join the former president on stage.
“Who is this? Is this a friend,” Trump asked during a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire on Saturday night.
Video from the rally showed a man in a black sweatshirt, reading “Kelly’s Roast Beef,” shouting an incomprehensible phrase at the former president.
“Get out of here. Get out of here,” Trump shouted. “You can throw him out.”
According to video from the rally, as Secret Service personnel and local Manchester police approached the rioter, the man appeared to be about to grab his jacket, but turned to walk briskly toward the stage.
A member of the Secret Service, stationed under the stairs, stopped the protester and the man was immediately arrested.
As the man was escorted out of the arena, Trump supporters jeered and chanted, “USA, USA” at the protesters.
“Well, now we know that politics is getting serious, so now we know we’re getting serious,” Trump said as protesters were escorted out. “Now he’s just a disturbed person.”

The Republican presidential front-runner said that the protesters were only disruptive because “we are leading,” claiming that billionaire George Soros paid for the protesters at the rally.
“Remember that this has happened all the time. But now, maybe, we’re really now in a political season,” Trump said. “And many of them, by the way, are paid by Soros. So these people, you know, are troublemakers.”
“This only happened because of all the weaponry, because we were in the lead,” he continued.

Trump, who is running for a third consecutive term for the White House, has 52% support among those likely to vote in New Hampshire’s GOP presidential primary next Tuesday, according to a Friday poll released by Suffolk University, the Boston Globe and NBC10 in Boston.
Haley, who served as ambassador to the UN during the Trump administration, reached 35%, with her support up two points since Wednesday’s poll.
DeSantis remained a distant third at 6% for the second day in a row.
