When word got out that young Donald Trump supporters were going to demonstrate at the University of Washington on Monday, it stirred even more people to come out just to show their opposition to the presumptive Republican nominee for president.

Trump supporters came with a miniature wall — a statement on Trump’s plan to build a wall on the US-Mexico border. Others came by to show their opposition to Trump.

“I don’t think it’s working very much. It’s just people trying to shout louder than the other person,” said student Kristine Brenner.
