Through D.C. in Support of Border Wall

Most of the Cowboys for Trump came from border communities in New Mexico where they said drug and human trafficking is rampant, and Trump’s national emergency declaration is essential to securing the border and protecting the American people and the lifestyle we enjoy.
“The cowboys for Trump are riding to defend life,” Gavin Clarkson told Breitbart News. “They are riding for the right to defend our families with our Second Amendment rights.”
“They’re riding to defend the rights of the unborn — the right to life,” Clarkson said. “We’re riding to defend the lives of the young children that are smuggled across our insecure border.”
“We’re riding to defend the lives of the brave men and women of the Customs and Border Protection because they need a physical barrier, technological infrastructure and human capital to be able to do their jobs every single day,” Clarkson said.
Couy Griffin, wearing chaps and a fox cape, organized the ride on Facebook where he and other New Mexicans flew to D.C. and worked with horse ranchers in Maryland and Pennsylvania to ride from Cumberland, Maryland, along the C&O canal to Arlington National Cemetery.
