The anti-Trump protester on the receiving end of the insults was holding signs that read, “Trump is a danger to us all,” and, “Do not let Trump make a fool of you,” as they appeared to try and block another protester holding a flag that read, “F— Joe Biden.”
Other pro-Trump protesters joined in on telling the anti-Trump protester to leave, with one of them grabbing and ripping up one of the anti-Trump signs.
“Knock her down!” another protester repeatedly yelled.
