President Trump unleashed on Portland Democratic Mayor Ted Wheeler on Sunday morning after a blue lives matter protester, Aaron Danielson was killed in Portland. Wheeler sent a caustic letter to the President rejecting the help he offered.
Wheeler has blood on his hands.
The shooting happened after conservative protesters drove trucks around the city with American flags and Trump flags. They were met by far-left antifa activists who blocked traffic and threw things at the vehicles. Responses usually came from the vehicles.
“Video of the attack that was posted online showed the shooting and, according to two journalists, appeared to show someone saying, ‘we got a Trumper right here,’ before two fatal shots were fired at the victim.”
THE PRESIDENT’S RESPONSE
The president retweeted dozens of tweets and quote retweeted others. He also tweeted an attack on Wheeler over the chaos in the city.
Trump highlighted a video that showed far-left antifa extremists throwing objects and liquids, which some journalists said was urine, at a caravan of trucks with U.S. flags.
“The big backlash going on in Portland cannot be unexpected after 95 days of watching an incompetent Mayor admit that he has no idea what he is doing,” Trump tweeted. “The people of Portland won’t put up with no safety any longer. The Mayor is a FOOL. Bring in the National Guard!”
The people of Portland, however, do put up with it and might be as crazy as the mayor and governor and all the rest of the officials.
The President continued, “Our great National Guard could solve these problems in less than 1 hour. Local authorities must ask before it is too late. People of Portland, and other Democrat run cities, are disgusted with Schumer, Pelosi, and their local ‘leaders’. They want Law & Order!,” Trump continued, later adding: “Wheeler is incompetent, much like Sleepy Joe Biden. This is not what our great Country wants. They want Safety & Security, and do NOT want to Defund our Police!”
He retweeted this:

President Trump’s mantra:
LAW & ORDER!!!

Trump obeys Constitutional Law. Federal help must be ASKED for. The Feds cannot infringe on state law except where Federal Property is at risk. Trump is playing it right.
“We’ve got a Trumper right here!,” then they kill him. WAKE UP AMERICA. Portland is a sewer and needs to be defunded, destroyed and disabled. Portland is the ENEMY.
Wait till President Trump finds out the suspect was charged with child endangerment, driving on a suspended, driving under the influence with pot and pills, unlawfull weapon (handgun) and his 11 year old daughter in his car, while racing his 17 year old son in another car, on the freeway at speeds exceeding 100mph, in JUNE. And, he’s out walking around in the streets, looking for someone to murder.

It took a 17 year old YMCA lifeguard named Kyle to show us the way to solve this. He taught us several things but among them were these: Never go near democrats you don’t know unarmed. They are in a war against Americans and ‘they’ are armed. 2) Have the strength and will to shoot first when attacked. If you hesitate, they will kill you. They tried to kill Kyle. 3) Don’t try and reason with democrats, they won’t listen. Kyle made three trips to a gas station to medically treat injured rioters. As his thanks, they tried to kill him.
We are dealing with the most hideous monsters in the history in our country with today’s democrats. They are the party of Stalin, Mao, Marx, the KKK, Jim Crow, and the noose. Never forget that. Protect your family and property from them. The “content of their character” is to hurt you and change this country to a communist one through violence.
Ted Wheeler has failed the city of Portland as Jenny Durkin did Seattle. However, it is the people of those cities to ultimately blame for allowing the violence and destruction to continue.
Shame on the people of Portland. Shame on the people of Seattle. Stand up, bear arms and cheer for our true patriots who do .
This is just great!! let’s hope that some state doesn’t elect a government that says to its citizens, “You can destroy everything except any federal property. You can harass, assault or do whatever you want to other people.” And the rest of the country, including the federal government just sits and watches, unable to do anything.” That needs to change,
Mike King is just parroting what he hears on fake news CNN (Clown News Network)
Let Portland, and Seattle, and el-Lay, and Nuevo Yorico, and Chicongo, and all the rest of the communist-run cities burn. The voters that have a little money, or a little property, will vote with their feet. The business’ that cater to those voters will leave once their customer-base is gone. Industry of all kinds will leave when their physical plants and their employees are no longer safe. The Indigenes won’t have to worry about de-funding the police, there will be no money for the police…or any other public service. Let the Indigenes eat each other then…seal the cities off and let them die.
TOSIWR
These ARE NOT protesters.They ARE NOT peaceful.They are criminal anarchists and should be treated as such.Kill ’em all and let God sort ’em out!
It is astounding that so many self-anointed constitutional experts are spouting off in total disregard of what is actually written in our constitution and its amendments.
The rights of individual states to manage their own affairs within compliance with the US Constitution are sacred. The US government cannot intervene unless requested by the state government.
Just because some (or many) uneducated, ignorant proponents of the use of force seek the implementation of federal forces to quell domestic violence does not render such action by the Commander in Chief to be legal.
People should always support our adherence to states rights. Otherwise we will have the liberal Marxists in Washington, D.C. changing residential zoning laws across the nation to be able to force the construction of low rent, high rise apartment buildings through out rural America. It’s not enough for them to control big cities and turn them into money sinks just to obtain huge voting blocks. They want all of our precious rural areas to be infested with welfare whores, junkies, illegal aliens and other compliant slaves of the Democrat Plantation.
Let the Mayor of Portland play with himself as his city burns around him. Then when Oregon requests federal funds to rebuild what was destroyed, tell them to go pound sand!
“It is astounding that so many self-anointed constitutional experts are spouting off in total disregard of what is actually written in our constitution and its amendments.”
Suggest you read Insurrection Act –
§253. Interference with State and Federal law
The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—
(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or
(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.
Maybe you should learn the difference between the U.S. Constitution and Federal Statutes.
The Federal Government went into the States around 100 years ago when the Klan was at it peak in State and local leaders. Those states were so corrupt in the same manner as today with refusal to uphold the law. At one point the Klan was nearly a party unto itself. It was that widespread. Klan marches in Washington were nearly as large as this past weekend. Once the public realized the corruption at such high levels the Klan quickly began to lose its clout.around the country. In a number of states we see similar situations as back then, along with its racist undertones. Make no mistake, Antifa (the black hooded KLAN) and BLM are no different the the old-time Klan.
During the Civil Right era the Federal Government had to come in once again.
Well said.
I agree Steve! Better though that we allow God to own their last breath.
It certainly appears we have the suspect, one Michael Reinoehl.
https://twitter.com/Brittany3l/status/1300069919946674181
His clothing certainly appears to match the person in the video. Maybe suspects should have thought twice before getting so many tattoos, which are hideous anyway.
He speaks of casualties, if this IS his post.
President Trump is constantly under attack for everything he does. Put yourself in his position for even one moment. What he has done for us is incredible. Moving on these violent states is something that will take an act of congress, which, is long over due. The local AGs and mayor should be doing their job, but it seems Portland’s mayor is just looking for a boyfriend.
The president can not over rule individual States that’s why he is not doing it the States themselves have to ask they won’t ask because they love the chaos unfortunately for them and good for us the republicans the average law and order citizen it is only making things easier for Donald Trump to get elected God-bless our country God-bless our president God-bless all-American
Unfortunately, for locals of the rioting States, the Potus must follow article 4, section 4, clause 1:
“The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence”.
(Astrisks for emphasis, mine)
Executive, being, the Governor of State.
If he crosses outside the Constitutional boundaries, such as invoking the Insurrection Act, Congress will take him to task with impeachment, as he would be stepping into the honey pot. That’s what Congress wants.
This is not a federal issue, this is a State issue, and the best way for States to secure their Compact, is for non offending States to get involved with the offending States, and return the Rule of Law.
Serious arrests from the top of the federal government all the way down to local State, governors, legislators, commissioner, mayors need to be done. The Actors at the Federal level are just as guilty of fomenting this as the people within the States, and should be charged as such is appropriate.
The other States need to Step up and put their big boy and girl pants on, elected Sheriffs need to form regulated possies, the people need a crash course in the Penal codes, and everyone must learn their State Constitutions- back to front.
Trump also has a mandate to protect ALL citizens regardless of the boundaries you cite. This is why we have a Supreme Court in this country. Trump should always side with protecting the citizens regardless of who they elect on a state level.
People elected Trump to do what is right and to take the heat when necessary. When a state officials fail, the federal government must act.
Do Tell? and how doe’s this work legal beagle?? We all want to know!!
If one wants to know and understand how an organization like BLM will pan out if in control, look no further than South Africa when they became the power brokers. Ask the white farming population how well it has been for them. That “Patriot” group is treated in the same manner as if they were in S.A.
The states have a Constitutional obligation to maintain “a republican form of government”. Mob rule and politically motivated release of criminals are a rejection of that obligation. These governors, AG’s and mayors should be put on notice than their states could be declared to be in a state of rebellion and they could face arrest for a multitude of crimes.
I am extremely disappointed in Trump for the things he does and does not do. He does let terrorists run our cities and threaten people. He doesn’t label ANTIFA and BLM as terrorists groups. I don’t care what he says….talk is cheap. Either put these rabid animals down or the American people will be forced to. Do your F-ING job Trump.
Trump did label ANTIFA a domestic terrorist group. The states have to REQUEST federal help.
Blame your liberal leaders not Trump. Most of these cities have been under Democratic control for decades.
Grow up!
The constitution keeps the military from acts against citizens.
Nope; Constitution says nothing about Fed troops shooting, or other military actions, against citizens.
Otherwise how could St. Obama murder native-born 16 yr old boy American citizens as he drone-murdered, w zero, no, none, nada, court oversight of any sort, let alone any court aurhorizing sanction such as, saaaay, ohhh, maybe a warrant; the boys’ father Anwar al-Awlaki.
How about troops shooting dead on sight any and all curfew violators every summer from ’67-’69?
How about tanks rolling through many major cities all summer long in each of those years; with orders to blow to hell any weapons, munition, vehicles, or unlawful assemblies of ‘protesters’?
You are mis-recalling, and mis-applying, the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which says only that Natl Command Authority may not use military force to enforce government policy or law; nothing about use of Fed troops to kill on sight mass rioters BurningLootingMurdering across the Nation, nor about using Fed troops to remove from office local leaders cleary engaging in sedition if not outright insurrection.
Under current conditions, Natl Command Authority is not only authorized to activate Fed troops to enforce such as the above actions, he is bound by law and by his Oath to The Constitution to do just that.
No Susan, you are wrong. Posse Comitatus is not in the constitution and the military can absolutely be used to put down an attempted overthrow of the USA from within. Please educate yourself and stop spreading ignorance. https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/14813/can-the-usa-military-be-used-as-a-police-force-domestically
They only have the same Constitutional rights as foreign enemies of war. They take up arms against the United States and the individual States and localities. They openly expressly condemn the United States with organizational patterns, including with clandestine and political leaders from within. They burn the U.S. flag (an act of war under maritime law). They kill and maim. They threaten to dismantle our security, with or without due process of law. They wear black uniforms with Nike/BLM/rainbow logos and unlawfully demand others take oaths under threat of force.
THEY act militarily against US.
Mike King, what you seem to not understand is that the Democrats set a trap for President Trump. Trump was supposed to call in federal troops or fed nationa guard and then he would be accused of being a “dictator,” of suppressing first amendment rights and of causing the violence! Instead, Trump avoided the trap by (mostly) insisting that the Democrat mayors and governors ask for the help. The Democrats are trying to blame the violence on Trump anyway, but most people can see through that–which might not be the case if he had fallen into the trap laid for him.!!!
Personally, since the Portland citizens elected and appear to support their mayor, I wouldn’t mind seeing Antifa and BLM burn Portland to the ground.
I have thought from the start of this insurrection that it was ALL being carried out as A lure to suck Trump into A, possibly, violent reaction. The mindset of those like the commenter above, Mike King, is the knee jerk reaction the President needs to avoid…..
If President Trump could he would have stopped the messes in our cities run by leftists. But voters put these people into office. This is the result of their uneducated masses who will follow false leaders and crowds, most not even understanding the laws they are breaking and usurping. States are run by individuals in them, not President Trump. He offers help, but foolish leaders prefer the mayhem. Voters get what they ask for…just look at Obama! People, do your homework before voting…don’t get fooled again.
When governors sit on their asses while their states crumble into chaos, they should be removed, by force. They are enemies to their people and this great nation.
Mike King, you are absolutely 100% CORRECT! Trump is all talk, and NO balls. This INSURRECTION should have been put down right at the start. All this blood and death is on HIS hands. Ronald Reagan would invoked the Insurrection Act and Martial Law and would have sent the troops in on day TWO! But Trump is NO Reagan. It sucks that I have to hold my nose and vote for the fat wimp again. It sickens me. I knew on the very first day of his presidency that he was a fraud when he literally said that he was not going to go after the Clintons, “they are good people” he said. After telling us throughout his campaign that he was going to INVESTIGATE the Clintons!!! The blowhard is all talk. Anything to get elected. He also said he was going to “drain the swamp”, what did he actually end up doing? NOTHING. He actually HIRED people from the swamp!!! Now, the marxist bolsheviks are literally overthrowing our Republic right before our very eyes, and what is Trump doing about it? Once again, NOTHING! It’s sickening! The guy is a WIMP, born with a gold spoon in his mouth and never saw a hard day in his life. Soft and wimpy, but likes to talk and act tough. Its all an ACT!
When he’s re-elected, then the gloves come off and 1000s of rioters go to jail. Right now, let the voters see what democrats gave us.
Amen. It’s long past time for Trump to stop talking and start acting. Send in the National Guard now!
Take another hit and go night night….. fool! Trump knows this and the Federal arrests are squeezing info from thugs to go after the money supporting this. Follow the money and all this could be shut down with harsh sentences for the commie’s that are funding these terrorists.
I don’t remember kennedy asking the governor of Mississippi if he could bring in the national guard to protect james meredith. the president can federalize the national guard and use them to bring peace.
The Gov’s control the N.G in their State. They decide when they are called apon …..Not Trump..idiot!
The President may call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard of any State in such numbers as he considers necessary to repel the invasion, suppress the rebellion, or execute those laws.
There are essentially three ways a guardsman can be brought into an active status to perform a mission. One method is called “state active duty,” in which the governor activates state Guard members in support of a particular mission. The state must bear the cost, and the members are under the governor’s command.
The second method when the federal government activates the Guard in what is called Title 10 status—that is what is meant by “federalizing” the Guard. The federal government pays, and activated Guard units are placed under the control of the secretary of defense and the president, with an active-duty military officer in the chain of command.
The National Guard can be activated in a third way. Under Title 32 status, a guardsman is activated by and remains under the control of the governor, but is paid for by the federal government. This helps r
believe the financial burden on the affected state.
10 U.S. Code § 12406 and 32 U.S.C., Chapters 1-9 apply.
You need to turn CNN off, put the remote down, and back away from the TV. Trump has labeled these groups as terrorists from the start. Your democrat leaders have labeled them “Peaceful Protesters”. The cities and states control the police, DA’s, and courts and are responsible for maintaining the peace, prosecuting, jailing, and executing violent criminals. The Federal government is only responsible for the defense of the country from external forces, and controls the military.
It’s not too late to educate yourself, quit watching CNN.
You are so right. It is too bad people are still watching the MSM and being fed lies 24/7. “Back away from the TV” is the best advice to everyone who blames Trump for the disaster Portland and other democratic-controlled cities are suffering under. Please – take a few minutes every day and LEARN THE TRUE FACTS about what is going on, who is to be blamed for the mess and, most importantly, who has the authority to fix it. The minute Trump does anything constructive the liberals will label him “dictator” like they always do.
Mike, most of us would like to see the President send in federal law enforcement to end these riots but, “the president may intervene only if requested by a state legislature to suppress an insurrection.” He can send in troops to protect Federal property but not state or personal property. And if he did find a way around the Insurrection Act, can you image the liberal news screaming… “Trump invades Oregon.”
We who are conservative in Oregon will cheer the Insurrection act be enacted.
Trump shouldn’t be worrying about what the liberal media says, he should be doing his god damned JOB!!! And his JOB is to put an absolute END to this marxist insurrection, by ANY and ALL MEANS!!! Stop making excuses for his cowardice!
Where’s Joe and the HO?
Please, Do Tell, how Trump should do this? We all want to know your strategy?
Your invincible ignorance can never be enlighten
I’m fine with Trump letting those cities burn. They’re all run by Democrats and have been for decades, and this is a teachable moment for America, especially for residents of those cities. You do not see this lawless stupidity in conservative cities/states being governed by Republicans. And when Trump wins re-election (probably in a landslide) he’ll have free rein to clean up those lawless cities. Should take a bout a week.
Let the cities burn??? Are you nuts? What about all of those innocent White people who are STUCK in those democrat hell-holes? They cant even go to the store for bread and milk without risking their lives. Just let them be murdered by the marxist beasts? Just let their homes and businesses burn? You must be out of your freakin’ mind!
MJ has a point. There are many conservative and patriotic people remaining in leftist cities that cannot just pick up and move to a new house. We all know this. It’s what makes the communist “destroy you from within” plan so insidious and pernicious. These commies — some bought and paid for by Soros — are actually in the halls of power, in positions of great bureaucratic power. Some are in the military; some control the police departments.
So True!!!! You have to watch the documentary called The Enemies Within by Dinesh D’Souza’!. In fact, watch all of D’Souza’s films and it will really open your eyes to what’s becoming of this Country!
MJ, spoken like a true typical American. Too scared to understand that an individual’s security ultimately rests with that individual. That means, MJ, it’s YOUR job to protect YOURSELF. Get off YOUR ass and DO something more than sit and bitch about how things are. If you haven’t noticed, the ‘authorities’ in Portland, the ones Portlanders elected, supported and are paying, are NOT doing their jobs. Now is the time to FIRE them and Prosecute THEM for dereliction of DUTY. MJ YOU are going to have to defend YOURSELF from the BLM/Antifa thug and THEN defend YOURSELF from the DA, the Police Chief and city council that would rather arrest and put YOU on death row for defending that which is yours. Do you see a problem with this? Portland’s problem does not lie with BLM/Antifa, it lies with the politicians that ALLOW it to happen.
I watch this, see that Portland does nothing to stop it themselves. I see no reason to assist them in any way. They planted the problem when they elected communists to be their leaders. They seem to approve of the violence by their inaction to stop it. I see no reason to assist them in stopping the violence, mostly since they can’t be bothered to lift a finger themselves.
He cannot do that by law. He cannot go in and “put down” those fools. He needs permission from the governors. They refused. He is president, not king.
You are ignorant. trump ABSOLUTELY CAN “do that by law”. There are terrorists in our streets rioting, burning, assaulting and MURDERING with the expressed goal of overthrowing America! This is no different than being invaded by a foreign army! Trump ABSOLUTELY has the power and LEGAL authority to put it down with deadly FORCE! He just doesn’t have the BALLS to do it!!! WISE UP!
D0 Tell? Explain how Trump has the power??
I get the feeling that this kind of post is from commie trolls wanting to blame Trump for the hell hole’s they have created.
mj is a shook shill stfu mj
Trump is bound by law. He cannot act unless the mayor of Portland asks for help. The mayor has repeatedly rejected Trumps many offers of help.
And if he violates the law, no matter the positive optics, it would give the Dems in the House a legitimate basis for another impeachment. This is a case of the federal government respecting the Constitutional limits on it.
That said, I fee certain that the federal law enforcement agencies are intensely investigating any interstate agitation and the money fueling it.
The Fed’s are capturing the useful idiots and are gathering info. They will follow the money and eventually shut thees commie org.’s down with stiff penalties. Don’t think for a minute that Trump isn’t all over this. He’s a business man, not a politician. He is much smarter than they are. We just have to keep him in office for 4 more years and watch his (strangle hold) on them.
Mike king, you are the idiot of the internet today.
Dumbocrats.. Delivering on my nickname for them for many years now.
Wow. The hypocrisy. “dog”, the brainwashed simple-minded ignoramus, calling Mike King “the idiot of the internet”???
He is the idiot of the inner web! He is nothing but a political agitator. His opinions are basically liberal talking point lies. He’s a hack that is terrified of freedom.
You are definitely a sick demorat that is all in for this bull crap and supports it while wanting to blame trump! Look in the mirror Democrat! The blood is on your hands!
Trump can’t just invade a state with national guard troops. Each state is run by each governor and until the governor asks for federal aid, nothing can be done. That’s how our government works.
In the meantime, Dems are digging their own graves. Majority in this country doesn’t like the endless unnecessaey violence taking place.
Mike King,
Folks have done a fair job telling you why our President, any President may not by law send troops to a State.
Quit being ignorant, please get a copy of the Constitution and take a Civics Class somewhere. You don’t seem to understand how our Federal Government is allowed to interact, or not interact with State Governments.
Regards
