Trump protesters block highway near Fountain Hills, Arizona
True to their promises, Trump protesters are doing their best to disrupt rallies for the billionaire GOP candidate.
As Trump makes his third visit to Arizona, activists blocked highway access Saturday morning in Fountain Hills in advance of his appearance. Protesters stopped vehicles at Shea and Palisades Boulevards, stating they were carrying a message they wanted Trump to hear.
“We don’t want you here in Arizona,” said protester Salvador Reza. “We don’t want your hate. … We want to make sure that people know that not everyone is in agreement with Donald Trump. There’s more than 50 percent of people who don’t want him. He’s already talking about building walls, not bridges. In the modern era, that’s not acceptable.”
Trump is known for his get-tough stance on illegal immigration.
Reaction to the road shutdown was negative.
Maricopa County sheriff’s deputies were seen directing tow trucks to start hauling the blocking vehicles away.
A woman who had chained herself to her car on the road blockade told a reporter, “I wanna stop Trump … he doesn’t have a place in this state. He doesn’t have a place in the U.S. We don’t want that.”
