While Hillary Clinton accused Donald Trump of not believing in “American exceptionalism” today, protesters aligned with her apparently don’t, either.
Numerous Mexican flags were being held by protesters outside Trump’s rally in Phoenix, Arizona on Wednesday night.
One man drove by waving a flag out his truck window — with two hands on the pole and none on the wheel. And they call Trump dangerous!

“Trump supporter takes issue with woman holding Mexican flag above American flag,” Arizona Republic staff photographer David Wallace tweeted.

One man could be seen walking around with a paper mache version of Trump’s head on a long pike. It’s on the left of this photo:

A better view is in the background of a video of two men arguing outside the venue:
When Trump supporters and agitators sparred across the street, supporters chanted “USA!” while protesters countered with “US Hate!”

But Hillary Clinton wants us to believe it’s Donald Trump who doesn’t believe America is exceptional.
