Trump was met by protesters both in Phoenix and in Mexico. In Phoenix, activists gathered outside the Phoenix Convention Center carrying a massive inflated balloon of Donald Trump with a swastika on his jacket. The rally was dubbed “Our Culture Trumps Their Hate” and featured Mexican and indigenous dance performances. In Mexico, activists gathered in downtown Mexico City to protest Trump’s visit and his proposal to build a wall across the entire length of the border. The U.S. already spends billions on border security every year. This is one of the protesters.

Maya Ghazzen: “Well, there’s already a border wall, and, I mean, that mainly affects the most marginalized sectors of the Mexican society. And instead of building community and comprehension and programs to develop the relationship between our two people, it’s putting walls between us, just like they do in Palestine-Israel. And I think it’s very important, the wall, because the same company—and I have to talk about companies because the people who profit from this hate speech are companies and transnationals. So, G4S runs our security, security, our separation wall between Mexico and the U.S., and Palestine-Israel.”

We’ll go to Mexico City and to Phoenix, Arizona, for more on Trump’s speech and his visit after headlines.
