His campaign appearances in early-voting states are his first since announcing his latest run more than two months ago.
Trump's campaign has already drawn major controversy.
He received criticism after dining with the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, who had made a number of antisemitic remarks, and the Holocaust-denier Nick Fuentes.
Trump was also widely chastised for selling a series of digital trading cards depicting him as a superhero, cowboy, and astronaut, among other things.
However, early polling shows he is one the favourites to win his party's nomination.
Trump told party leaders at the New Hampshire Republicans' annual meeting in Salem: 'We're starting right here as a candidate for president.
'I'm more angry now and I'm more committed now than I ever was.'

Trump faced a sluggish start to his campaign that left many questioning his commitment to running again.
But in recent weeks, his backers have reached out to political operatives and elected officials to secure support for Mr Trump at a critical point in the run.
In New Hampshire, Mr Trump promoted his campaign agenda, including immigration and crime, and said his policies would be the opposite of President Joe Biden's.
He cited the Democrats' move to change the election calendar, costing New Hampshire its lead-off primary spot, and accused Mr Biden, a fifth-place finisher in New Hampshire in 2020, of 'disgracefully trashing this beloved political tradition'.

'I hope you're going to remember that during the general election,' Trump told party members.
But potential challengers, including Florida However, potential rivals like former vice president Mike Pence, former governor of South Carolina Nikki Haley, and governor of Florida Ron DeSantis, who served as Mr. Trump's ambassador to the UN, are anticipated to launch their campaigns in the near future.
A number of criminal investigations are also being conducted into Trump, including one into the discovery of hundreds of documents marked as being classified and federal investigations into his attempts to rig the 2020 election.
