A pro-Trump caravan that was winding its way through downtown #Portland trying to troll for trouble and get a reaction out of this liberal city has resulted in a casualty. A human life has been taken. This is Trumpβs America. #PortlandProtests

This is Donald Trump’s America.
And we’re trapped in it.

I always rely on cherry-picked tweets to learn the whole story…not.
Perhaps more accurately: “This is Mayor Wheeler’s (new) Portland – 90+ days and counting.”
(That’s three straight months of mayhem, folks!)
Out of control, and Portland / Oregon own it.

cp retiree: How many black people have to be killed by the police before it’s ok to protest? When you decide on a number let us know.

Nice try.
What scares me is what you seem to accept as “protest.”

Very cherry picked. Yet you show a truck running into people. Newsflash, they were blocking the road. There has been many instances of these anarchists doing damage to vehicles they stop and violently assaulting the occupants of the vehicle. I would run them over too.

NEWS FLASH: You don’t plow your vehicle into people just because they’re blocking the road and doing nothing else. That’s murder. Protestors against police brutality are not anarchists – they’re patriots – just like those in the Revolution who protested British brutality. You complain about “anarchists, but not about the racist white supremacist militias. Reel in the paranoia.

Don’t you understand? It’s okay when Trumpzi forces kill people. It’s not okay to complain about it.
None of this sort of thing happened before Putin’s Puppet took over. People who defend him ironically think they are patriots. They will never understand they are mindless minions abusing the Constitution to aide the very people they think they need guns to prevent taking over the government.
You’ll never convince them otherwise either. They believe anything except the truth.
