A small but vocal group of people organized a pro-Donald Trump rally in Manhattan on Saturday.

The Midtown rally of about 30 people began around 4 p.m. The Trump supporters said they gathered outside Trump Tower to show that the Republican presidential candidate has a solid base of support in the city.

Organizers said they also wanted to show the diversity of Trump supporters, especially in the wake of recent headlines waged against Trump about his views on minorities.

"My top priority was to prove to the liberal media, that bashes him every day, that there are a lot of Trump supporters in New York," one woman said as she held a sign outside the tower. "And we got people here from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, upstate."

"He's a business man, of course, and he's also good for the, you know, economy. He creates a lot of jobs," one man said. "He employs all kinds of people, so how can a person discriminate when he employs all kinds of people?"

"I believe that Donald Trump is honest," another Trump supporter said. "I believe that he wants to help America and that he wants to help Americans. He wants to bring jobs back to our country, which we so sorely need."

Not everyone at the rally supported Trump, however. At least one counter-protestor was at the rally site, joined by average spectators who voiced different views on the Queens-native.

"Trump, to me, is irrefutably racist," the counter-protestor said. "He refused to rent to black people 40 years ago, and for those who say people can changed — the whole birther thing is nothing but racism."

"I am afraid for the world," another man said. "I cannot believe it could possibly happen. And it's scary to think that of all the people who could lead this country that it would come down to Donald Trump."

"I don't like the way he treats people," another spectator said. "I don't like the way he talks. I don't like the way he expresses himself….I don't like feel like he's going to be a good president."

Organizers said they hoped to hold similar rallies in the future.

On the campaign trial Saturday, Trump took his message to the heartland, stumping at the Iowa State Fairgrounds.

Trump said his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, plans to open the borders and keep illegal immigrants with criminal records in the United States.

"These international gangs of thugs and drug cartels, will be — I promise you, from the first day in office, the first thing I'm going to do, the first piece of paper I'm going to sign, is we're going to get rid of these people, day one, before the wall, before anything," Trump said at the rally in Des Moines.

Trump lost the Iowa Caucuses to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

Trump is polling neck-and-neck with Clinton in the state.

His next rally is scheduled for Tuesday night in Washington state.

Trump's runningmate Mike Pence is slated to attend two campaign events in Georgia on Monday.
