Hundreds of anti-Trump protesters and a small number of demonstrators backing the president faced off Tuesday evening across Fifth Avenue, three blocks south of Trump Tower, as police stood in a line in the street.
The anti-Trump demonstrators, backed by the sounds of clapping and drumsticks hitting barricades, shouted, "No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA." The pro-Trump group paced, carrying signs reading, "Thank God for Trump" and "Deport illegal aliens."
The New York City Police Department relegated demonstrators to pens between East 54th Street and East 53rd Street.
The scene was energetic but peaceful. Occasionally, a crew of police officers rode through on bicycles.
Demonstrators on both sides of the issue goaded each other across Fifth Avenue and across East 54th Street, though the anti-Trump crowd outnumbered the pro-Trump demonstrators by about 20 to one
