University of Northern Colorado students lead protest outside Trump rally
GREELEY -- Protesters and supporters of Republican nominee Donald Trump clashed Sunday before the candidate was set to speak in Greeley at the University of Colorado.
Prior to the rally starting at the Bank of Colorado Arena at the Butler-Hancock Athletic Center, the Hillary Clinton campaign hosted a press conference outside the library across from the event.
Local leaders gathered to speak about the differences between Clinton and Trump. A news release from the campaign stated, "From boasting about sexual assault to attacking a Gold Star family, Trump has demonstrated time and time again that he lacks the experience and temperament to be president. In contrast, Hillary Clinton has spent her career fighting for women and children and is focused on building an America that is stronger together with an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top."
Rep. Dave Young, D-Greeley, who attended the press conference said, "I do talk to a lot of Republicans.... Frankly, I do think there are a number of people, at least in my district, that are Republicans that are looking for their party. They don't know where it went. I don't know what the big moving trends are maybe at the national level, what that really means, but I do think people are really questioning the viability of somebody like Donald Trump and don't understand how he ended up at the top of the ticket."
