TRUMP TAKES OVER PORTLAND
By: Derek Varsalona
One of the cornerstones of the Libertarian philosophy is not using force to achieve political ends. No one ever considered President Trump to be a Libertarian. President Trump is using the National Guard to quash the revolts that the citizens are having in Portland, Oregon. But what is a man to do, let the city run rampant and filled with chaos?
Fine, let us have it the Libertarian way and pull the National Guard. I agree with that. WE should not use force when necessary. But when the shit hits the fan, there is going to be bloodshed in the streets.
The reason President Trump is sending in the National Guard is that these mayors can't control their own cities. The rioters are outnumbering law enforcement.
Replacing police officers with social workers is not going to help either. These agitators are not looking to speak to a social worker. They are looking to cause havoc. As for Trump, he should listen to the citizens. Pull the National Guard, and have the Mayors play. When things get out of control, the people of Portland and the Mayor of Portland, Keith Wilson, are going to wish the National Guard were in Portland. Well played, President Trump. Well played.
