“send bachelors and come heavily armed.”


Never underestimate the power of a pithy quote.

There’s a reason they used to teach rhetoric.

Shame it has to come to this, but this is good news.

Sad that it’s coming to this....but we all know it’s coming.
Whatever comes thru the door as hostile needs to catch about 90-120 rounds of .300 AAC Blackout.

Oregon is not Portland.

Nope, just controlled by them.

Quorum in the US House is majority...it wouldn’t do any good.
I’m guessing quorum in Oregon is 2/3?

You shouldn’t be surprised. In the hinterlands of Washington, Oregon, and here deep behind enemy lines in California there reside MILLIONS of people whose conservative bona dudes are as solid as anyone you’d care to mention. It’s just we’re vastly outnumbered by the drooling drones in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angleles, etc etc

Drop the President a line like that, asking him to come at least once to those states and hold a Tampa-like rally. The Democrats would panic and feel they'd have to spend money in those "safe" states. He might not win the state, but the benefit would be all those "abandoned" Conservatives might come out and vote in some down-ticket Republican to Congress.

Its probably NOT the GOP.
There are many Republicans in Oregon who have felt for a long time that the GOP has turned their back on the Base in Oregon

They’re probably hanging out at a bar in Lewiston, ID. Drinking beer and lining up deals for cheap .22 ammo.

Outside of The Portland-Salem-Eugene area, most of the rest of the state is as much or more conservative and patriotic and almost every other state. They take their rights VERY seriously.

Above is the youtube of Trump in Everett, Washington (just north of Seattle). Largest attendance ever at the facility, and 8,000 waiting outside.

This was his third event in the state at the time (August, 2016).
