Summary

Mexican Protesters say "Trump Was Right, This Is An Invasion" as protests escalate in Tijuana.

Currently the migrant caravan is about 3,000 strong in Tijuana and residents are upset as more and more people show up everyday. We are starting to see protesters use Trump rhetoric calling for Tijuana first and for migrants to be sent home.

Trump has responded in agreement with the Mayor in the mexican city by saying it was an invasion and the US cannot support these people. At the same time some in the media are blaming Trump for the rhetoric and claiming that people are simply being influenced by Trump.

The migrant caravan protests are escalating as residents of Tijuana call the migrant caravan a

0:05.7

Horde demand they be removed. Some are even saying that Donald Trump was right and this is an

0:11.8

invasion. Recently we heard the mayor of Tijuana said it was a Horde, it was an avalanche,

0:16.8

and they need to be deported. Now interestingly it seems like some people in the media are trying

0:21.2

to make this Donald Trump's fault. BuzzFeed actually ran a story saying that this is Trump's rhetoric

pouring into Mexico and it's important. Washington Post said it was only some residents of Tijuana

1:29.2

no to the invasion as several hundred people or more are seen marching through the streets. Lpaez

1:34.8

classified this as xenophobia saying xenophobia goes to the streets of Tijuana. Some 300 protesters
