There was a heavy presence of minority groups, mainly Asian Americans. But Alexandira Juarez, from Buxton, Maine, wore a "Latinas for Trump" t-shirt and said: "I absolutely love Trump and what he's done for this country, and he got robbed from four more years."

Asked about the issue of child separation, one of the most controversial of Trump's policies, and which predominantly affected Latin American migrants at the southern border, Juarez said she didn't believe they were actually separated.

Tony Capo, an Egyptian American pharmacy student from New York, said he was attending the rally just to support an election audit. He went from being a Democrat in 2016 to supporting Trump this time.

A Muslim, he said Trump had condemned white supremacists and racism, and that Trump's Muslim ban wasn't a ban against Muslims, but happened to be concern countries with large Muslim populations. As he spoke, the crowd behind him broke into a "Four More Years!" chant. Capo cheered them on.
