United Airlines kicks 'belligerent' Trump supporter off flight while everyone cheers. [View all]

Welcome to another day in 2017. A passenger wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat was kicked off an airplane in Shanghai on Sunday, for refusing to allow anyone to sit in the seats next to him and other "belligerent" behavior, the Washington Post reports.

This story may sound a little familiar. But unlike another story of United Airlines kicking a passenger off a flight, in this case, the other passengers cheered.

In a video of the incident, a crowd of people in the airport are heard chanting "lock him up! lock him up!" after the man in the Trump hat finally exited the plane.

You can watch the video here: (video at link. It's in a format that can't be shown on DU)
