Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump received a mix of reactions from football fans Saturday at the Palmetto Bowl in South Carolina, with videos showing both booing and cheering for the former president.

Trump arrived at the infamous annual rivalry game between the University of South Carolina and Clemson University where he was met with both supporters and critics. (RELATED: Republican Wins Charleston Mayoral Seat For The First Time Since 1877)

In the first video, the former president’s motorcade can be seen pulling up to an entrance of the football stadium. Loud “boos” could be heard from the crowd in the recording, with one attendee even yelling “f*ck you.”

Prior to the start of the game and the arrival of the former president, two billboards went up in Columbia, South Carolina calling out Trump, according to Fox Baltimore. 

“You lost. You’re guilty. Welcome to Columbia, Donald,” the billboards read.

South Carolina attorney Jay Bender claimed credit for the billboards, attaching “sponsored by league of radical leftist vermin” at the bottom of the sign, according to Fox Baltimore. (RELATED: Trump Considers Buying A Gun With His Face On It During South Carolina Campaign Stop)

However, other videos show Trump walking into the stadium displaying a completely different scene. In one video Trump can be seen walking through the gates with loud cheering in the background. The video shows the former president waving to supporters, panning over to display the large crowd of people.

A second video shows Trump continuing to walk to an entrance door, surrounded by people cheering for the 45th president and even chanting “USA.” Trump can be seen greeting people on either side of him, giving high fives, passing out popcorn, and shaking hands with supporters. 

Trump currently holds the majority of votes within the state for the 2024 Republican primary elections, which is notably fellow candidate and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley’s home state. The former president is sitting at roughly 53% compared to Haley who is in second place with an estimated 22%, according to the latest CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
