Crowds of Mexican’s took part in the protest which took place in Mexico City on Friday, the day of President Trump’s inauguration.
President Trump remains loyal to building a wall along the Mexican border, which he promised would be paid for by the Mexican’s in the lead up to the US election.
Some Mexican’s were outraged by the election victory of billionaire Mr Trump and made their displeasure clear as they burned two effigies of him.
In the footage the demonstrators can be seen setting fire to the effigies of Mr Trump before they set one on fire and pulled it up a flag poll.
