California Border: San Diego and Immigration Policies

california border: Hundreds of people participated in scattered rallies on both sides of the border dividing San Diego from Tijuana, Mexico, according to The Chronicle Herald. Law enforcement was out in force, and the area where Trump visited the eight prototypes was heavily cordoned off. The president's first visit to the California border amid a contentious battle with state officials over his immigration policies was peaceful. Rows of police kept apart supporters and opponents of the Trump administration along the avenue where his motorcade drove down. Among the crowd, a man wearing a Make America Great Again cap debated policies with a woman holding a No human is illegal sign. Each side booed, cheered and waved both Mexican and American flags as the president's convoy sped past them. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
