Tear gassing the mayor. Bludgeoning innocent people. Launching waves of tear gas and rubber bullets at pregnant women and mothers. The Black Lives Matter protests in Portland had dwindled to a few dozen people before Trump decided to stage extravagant made-for-TV violence to boost his election campaign. Some of our friends are traveling to Portland to join the anti-Trump protests. I’m angry enough to throw rocks myself.
Deadly Don is killing people right and left with his bungled coronavirus response. Now he’s staging violence to create a distraction. I hope he loses the election badly and that his cronies are put on trial for genocide.
