A female Trump supporter was attacked by an anti-Trump protester outside President Trump's golf club on Sunday, leading to the detention of the aggressor by sheriff's deputies, according to eyewitness accounts and bystander video.
The incident occurred amid a gathering of a couple dozen anti-Trump and anti-ICE protesters outside the golf club, where they waved signs protesting the administration's immigration enforcement policies.
The Trump supporter was peacefully seated in a camp chair, wearing a Trump hat, and hoping to catch a glimpse of the President. She politely noted that the protesters' signs were blocking her view of the driveway.
A man carrying an anti-Trump flag then approached the woman and initiated an altercation, as captured by bystander video and reported by eyewitnesses.
Sheriff's deputies, who were on the scene, swiftly intervened and detained the man described as the aggressive protester.
Police have indicated they will provide more information about the incident and any potential charges in due course.
The confrontation highlights tensions between Trump supporters and opponents at public locations associated with the President, with the woman exercising her First Amendment rights peacefully prior to the altercation.
