On the conservative TV show "Tipping Point" on the OAN Encore network, show host Liz Wheeler pounded it out with a Democrat lawyer over the presence of federal cops in Portland. She came out the clear winner, as the lawyer had no case to make, and was stretching, without evidence the entire time.
The lawyer made the claim, as many Democrats have been doing, that rioting was diminishing and therefore there was no need for the federal police to intervene. He blamed President Trump, for injecting the feds into the picture. Well, at least he didn't call them "stormtroopers" like Nancy Pelosi and some others have done, but he also didn't present any evidence that the riots were slowing down.
They had been going on continuously for months, and were happening only because the Democrat mayor (Ted Wheeler) and equally negligent governor Kate Brown, were doing nothing to stop them. Wheeler had ordered his cops to stand down, and they told storekeepers that their hands were tied, and they were thus unable to provide protection.
Obviously, the blame here lies with the criminally complicit Ted Wheeler, in refusing to have his police stop the rioting. If he had done his job early on, there would not have been any talk about diminishing, or any rioting for months on end. The rioting would have been stopped in one hour. Trump simply did what was needed and required, to protect the federal courthouse that rioters tried to burn down, the storekeepers, and citizens of Portland. To date, there have been 83 arrests made. Without Trump's action, there would have been none.
