Story highlights A group that supports abortion rights protested outside the event

Trump was once supportive of abortion rights, but is now anti-abortion.

Norwood, Massachusetts (CNN) When Donald Trump arrived Friday at the home of a local car dealership magnate here for an event that he insisted wasn't a fundraiser, he wasn't greeted by just his supporters.

NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts, a group that supports abortion rights, crashed the event, with about two dozen protesters meeting outside the home of Ernie Boch Jr., who hosted the event.
