The students called on President Trump to intervene on the subway project that they say endangers their school.
During the rally Nelson interviewed “Ben” a 15-year-old student at the school.
Ben was carrying a Trump flag.

As she was interviewing Ben several of his friends surrounded them and said they support Trump too.
As I was interviewing him, his friends gathered around me and said they supported Trump, too. “The @latimes is fake news,” one of them said.

Then the students told Laura “The LA Times is fake news.”
