Several hundred protesters opposing Donald Trump gathered Friday outside the hotel where he was scheduled to speak to California Republicans, and a large contingent of police sought to head off violence like what followed a rally in Southern California the night before.
A man wearing a Trump campaign “Make America Great Again” red hat was struck while being jostled by a group of shouting protesters.
“It went gangbusters. They attacked me,” said Chris Conway, who identified himself as a mortgage broker from San Mateo.
A dozen protesters linked arms to block the road in front of the hotel near San Francisco International Airport, but no one was using the street because police had already closed it to traffic. Protesters also draped a large “Stop Hate” banner outside the hotel.
CNN reported that protesters made their way onto “private” property of a Hyatt hotel property where the Trump event was being held and were attempting to gain entry.
