Protesters clashed with police outside of a political rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico for fascist demagogue and Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump.

The protesters mostly were from Albuquerque's sizable Latino community, which is disgusted with Trump's labeling of Mexican immigrants as "criminals" and "rapists".  They carried US and Mexican flags to show pride in their heritage.  Most were also young people, and the protest bubbled over at one point with some throwing rocks and bottles at police and jumping onto police cars.  Street Racers in tuned Hondas and Nissans did burnouts on the peripheries of the crowd, while a whinging CNN reporter complained it was too much like "Fast and Furious".   Albuquerque police responded with lines of horses for crowd control and smoke bombs.  Although police denied using tear gas, it was clear that some individual officers used pepper spray on the largely teenage crowd. 

Despite the potential for violence (and the Albuquerque Police Department's reputation for deadly violence), the situation was not as wild as it could have been - a couple of broken windows made up the bulk of the damage.

But the raucous scene outside was nothing compared to the vile tone Trump took inside the rally, which was disrupted by protesters less than three minutes after he started to speak.  Trump attacked a Massachusetts Senator who bested him in a twitter war recently; insulted the Female, Latina Republican governor of the New Mexico, who refused to endorse him; and, of course, attacked the masochistic US corporate news media which for some reason refuses to call him out for his garbage.

Trump called Democratic Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton as a "lowlife" for her latest ad, which plays a 2006 video clip of Trump longing for the housing market to collapse so that he could make money.  The Housing market did collapse in the tail end of the last republican administration in 2008, and five million families lost their homes.  Trump said, "What am I going to do?  I'm in business, OK?  Never thought I was going to run for office."
