William J. Kemble is reporting for the Daily Freeman U.S. Rep. Antonio Delgado was confronted during the Saugerties Independence Day Parade by supporters of President Donald Trump in an "unnecessarily aggressive" way, according to an Ulster County official. “They were just mocking him, and I thought it was not in the spirit of what today’s parade was,” said Ulster County Assistant County Executive Daniel Torres. “And I thought it was an unnecessarily aggressive thing to have done to a representative, no matter what your party is,” he said. Torres said there were four or five Trump supporters who seemed to be harassing Delgado, and there was definitely a racial component to the harassment. Torres said Delgado handled the incident in a “very professional” manner. When asked about what happened, Delgado did not specifically confirm that he had been surrounded. Asked if there was any aggression involved, the Rhinebeck Democrat quickly replied, "Not at all ... not even a little bit." A vendor said Trump 2020 banners were popular during the parade. She added that people in Saugerties did not give her as much grief about them as in other communities. “I sell a lot here,” she said. “It’s different from town to town. But this happens to be a Trump town, I think.” Read the full story in the Daily Freeman.
