- Hundreds of people showed up to demonstrate against alt-right group Patriot Prayer at Alamo Square park which had planned a gathering in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge but then canceled the event
- Patriot Prayer planned to instead hold a press conference but this was again downgraded and an organizer for the pro-Trump group simply spoke in suburban Pacifica with a just handful of supporters
- However counter-protesters showed up at Alamo Square park anyway leading to a number of scuffles breaking out among the crowd and one arrest
Other speakers included African Americans, a Latino and a Samoan American. Several said they support Donald Trump and want to join with moderates to promote understanding and free speech.
