"...Portlanders Mock Trump With Pictures, Videos from ‘War-Ravaged’ City..."

"...The playful pushback comes after Trump announced he would deploy troops to Portland and to federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities nationwide, saying the city was “under siege” from “domestic terrorists” and authorizing “full force, if necessary.”..."

"...The clash over Portland is as much about perception as policy. To critics, Trump’s rhetoric inflates limited unrest into a crisis to justify military action. To supporters, it is a necessary show of strength to protect federal facilities...."
