You do realise you just made this openly illegal.

Trump on Portland: "We're not leaving until they secure their city ... if they don't secure their city soon, we have no choice -- we're gonna have to go in and clean it out."






Open your eyes America, this is an occupation.

Clean who out? Does he think this is fallujah or something?

different outcome.
The fenced in federal building has been stormed for 60 + nights. It is fenced off because rioters vandalized it on May 29th and some subsequent nights and or attempts to vandalize were made.
