What do you get when you create a protest that combines two absurd moments from Donald Trump's presidential campaign? A “great, great, wall” of taco trucks!
At least five taco trucks plan to line up in front of Donald Trump's Las Vegas hotel in protest against the GOP nominee Wednesday morning, just a few miles from the site of the final presidential debate.
The rally is being organized by the Culinary Union, which has opposed Trump's campaign since workers at Trump International Hotel voted to unionize in December. The group claims Trump refuses to bargain with them.
“We're reminding Mr. Trump that immigrant workers here and across the country will be watching the debate and voting in November,” Yvanna Cancela, Culinary Union's political director, said in an interview with BuzzFeed.
The group will be joined by at least 50 immigrant activists and leaders from Los Angeles, as well as members of the Latino Victory Project, American Bridge, Center for Community Change Action, For Our Future and PLAN Action.
The rally begins at 10 a.m. local time. The Trump campaign told BuzzFeed it welcomes the trucks, as campaign workers would never pass up the chance to eat a good taco.
In case you don't recall how exactly taco trucks were dragged into the 2016 presidential race, here's a refresher:
