Trump Blames Portland Leadership, Says He's 'Trying To Help' Portland

(Portland, OR)  --  President Trump is again accusing Portland leaders of losing control of their city.  Trump tweeted yesterday morning that the city's leadership has lost control of protesters, whom he called "anarchists and agitators."  Trump added that he's trying to help Portland, not hurt it, by sending in federal troops.  Federal officers backed by an executive order protecting monuments started cracking down on anti-police-brutality protests in Portland last week, using tear gas and projectiles and hauling people off the streets in unmarked vehicles.  One protester was hospitalized with serious injuries after a federal officer shot them in the head with a police projectile shortly after federal officers arrived in Portland.
