According to Donald Trump’s social media director Dan Scavino, tons of Trump fans and (presumably) voters have gathered outside his New York residence to show their support.
Trump supporters surrounding Trump Tower! They love Mr. Trump and feel this is very unfair – couldn't agree more!!! #TrumpTrain #MAGA

Scavino tweeted this distant photo, too:

While there is little doubt that many Trump fans support him, and would certainly show up to display that support, it’s almost certainly the case that there are detractors and protesters on scene as well.
Then just moments ago, this video of Donald showing up to hear the cheers and (one assumes) some jeers.

Donald Trump Jr. posted this much better video to Instagram:
Of course, the spontaneity of this “rally” should be considered an open question.
Like Trump said months ago, there’s really nothing he can do or say that would make his supporters abandon ship. Not even shooting someone in the face, he famously said. Much less groping women or harassing married women while himself married.
Classy.
