Rick Perry Unable to Defend Texas Republicans for Energy Outages Throughout Fox Information Interview
An appearance by Donald Trump Jr. at UCLA came to an abrupt end on Sunday when President Donald Trump’s son tried to promote his book, Triggered.
According to the LA Times, dozens of people protested outside the UCLA hall on Sunday, where Donald Trump Jr. was speaking on a promotional tour for his new book.
In the hall, protesters changed the chant to “America First” and then booed at Trump, TPUSA activist Charlie Kirk and Trump friend Kimberly Guilfoyle, who refused to ask questions.
According to the Guardian, “the performance failed when his own supporters, die-hard Make America Great Again Conservatives, raised their voices the loudest in protest and drowned him out barely 20 minutes before an event that was supposed to last two hours.”
“At first, Trump and Guilfoyle tried to ignore the discontent stemming from a fringe group of America Firsters who believe the Trump administration has been captured by a cabal of internationalists, free traders and apologists for mass immigration,” The Guardian continued. When the screaming persisted, Trump Jr. tried to argue – and failed – to argue that answering questions from the ground could lead to soundbites that would abuse and distort leftist social media posters. Nobody bought that. “
