Supporters of President Donald Trump’s proposed border security measures gathered to form a human “wall” along a section of the U.S.-Mexico border in New Mexico on Saturday. Donning “Make America great again” hats, chanting “build a wall” and waving American flags, the demonstrators linked arms near an open section of the border at Sunland Park, northwest of El Paso.

One of the protesters, Anthony Aguero, told Reuters that migrants would “have to find somewhere else” to cross into the U.S. “We are here to bring attention to the fact that there isn’t a wall here,” he said.
