Demonstrators in New York City called for the prosecution and imprisonment of President Donald Trump as he spoke at a Veterans Day event.

The president on Monday spoke in his hometown of New York City ahead of the Veterans Day parade. Although the president was behind bulletproof glass, protesters chanted “lock him up” loud enough for him to hear. Chants of “impeach and remove” could also be heard.

VoteVets, the progressive veterans group, says it has rented a plane to fly over Denver today trailing a banner that reads, "Vets: Trump is a National Security Threat."

It will also run digital ads today criticizing Sen. Gardner for supporting Trump. #copolitics #cosen
