Trump met with boos, 'lock him up' chant at Game 5 of World Series
President Donald Trump stays away from most sporting events. Now we know why.
"Impeach Trump!" banner hung from the upper deck at Nationals Park last night.
Sustained and deserved boos for Trump and his entourage.

President Trump drew loud boos and chants of "lock him up" during his appearance on the scoreboard at Nationals Park for Game 5 of the World Series on Sunday. Trump was sitting in the stands along with some of his closest Republican allies, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.), House Republican Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney (Wyo.) and House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (La.). Other GOP members of Congress present included Sens. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) and David Perdue (Ga.). According to multiple reporters at the scene, the audience erupted into boos when the group appeared on the scoreboard. Some members of the crowd then began a brief "lock him up" chant, an echo of the popular "lock her up" chant directed at former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that can often be heard at Trump's rallies. The game was also attended by a top critic of the president, celebrity chef José Andrés, who threw out the first pitch prior to Trump's arrival at the game.
