Were Trump Supporters Asked to Leave DeSantis Book Signing? Laura Loomer among them. [View all]

Asecurity guard asked supporters of former President Donald Trump to leave as they were protesting outside a book signing event for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on Tuesday.

DeSantis, Trump's potential 2024 GOP presidential primary opponent, signed copies of his new book, The Courage to Be Free: Florida's Blueprint for America's Revival, on Tuesday afternoon at a Books-a-Million store in Leesburg, at Florida's Lake Square Mall.

Far-right conspiracy theorist and failed congressional candidate Laura Loomer shared videos to Twitter of herself and other Trump supporters being confronted and asked to leave by a man wearing a security guard uniform.

Some of the videos shared by Loomer falsely referred to the guard as a "police officer," although others noted that he was a security guard who had called police on the protesters. A Leesburg Police Department patrol car can be seen in one of the videos.
