KGUN 9's Andrew Christiansen spoke with a small group of protesters gathered outside the Ronstadt Music Hall during the former president's campaign event. Andrew will have a report coming up in our evening newscasts.
The protest featured a group of about 15 people and while it was mostly peaceful, the rhetoric did get heated at times on both sides.
Frank Enos was one of the protesters who said while he supports President Joe Biden, he feels like Vice President Kamala Harris has energized the race even more.
“I think the debate showed us what Trump was all about more than what it shows what Kamala is all about it. It invigorates us to see that we have a candidate who is not only capable, but is intelligent enough to beat Trump,” Enos said.
At this time, local Democrats are gathering downtown for a Harris/Walz campaign event with Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff. KGUN 9 will be livestreaming his remarks later this evening in the 6 p.m. hour.
KGUN 9's Tina Giuliano will provide live coverage before and after the event.
