<p>The presumptive Republican nominee was speaking to an enthusiastic crowd of supporters in San Diego&#8217;s convention centre.</p>
<p>But outside around 1,000 people demonstrated against the billionaire tycoon, in tense scenes which included police pepper spraying some of the protesters.</p>
<p>Police arrested one man who climbed a railing separating protesters from officers. His arrest led demonstrators to spray water and throw empty plastic bottles at officers.</p>
<p>In another tense exchange, police shoved back demonstrators to separate them from Trump supporters when they left the centre after the rally.</p>
<p>Police declared the gathering unlawful after shouting matches erupted and people began hurling rubbish at each other.</p>
<p>Inside, Mr Trump made repeated attacks on Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton.</p>
<p>But he was on the defensive over negative media stories and a lawsuit against his now-defunct Trump University.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m getting railroaded by a legal system,&#8221; he complained.</p>
<p>Earlier, in Fresno, Mr Trump told California voters that he can solve their water crisis, declaring: &#8220;There is no drought.&#8221;</p>
<p>California is in fact in the middle of a drought, and last year capped the state&#8217;s driest four-year period in its history, with record low rainfall and snow.</p>
<p>But Mr Trump accused state officials of denying water to Central Valley farmers so they can send it out to sea &#8220;to protect a certain kind of three-inch fish&#8221;.</p>
<p>He told thousands of supporters at the rally: &#8220;We&#8217;re going to solve your water problem. You have a water problem that is so insane. It is so ridiculous where they&#8217;re taking the water and shoving it out to sea.&#8221;</p>
<p>The comments came a day after Mr Trump outlined an energy policy plan that relies heavily on expanding US fossil fuel exploration and reducing environmental regulations.</p>
<p>The rallies in Fresno and San Diego came as ended a campaign swing through the west, drawing vocal crowds of protesters, many carrying signs critical of his plan to wall off the US border with Mexico.</p>
<p>In Fresno, Mr Trump said he had spent 30 minutes before his rally meeting more than 50 farmers who complained to him about their struggles.</p>
<p>&#8220;They don&#8217;t understand &#8211; nobody understands it,&#8221; he said. &#8220;There is no drought. They turn the water out into the ocean.&#8221;</p>
<p>California is the biggest agriculture producer in the US and the state&#8217;s drought is raising the stakes in water disputes among farmers, cities and towns, and environmental interests.</p>
<p>A count by The Associated Press on Thursday found that Mr Trump has reached the required number of delegates to officially clinch the Republican nomination.</p>
