Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler’s tense visit with protesters-- where he was booed, told to resign and given a list of demands-- ended with his security detail engaging in a struggle with protesters late Wednesday night as they worked to get the mayor to safety, a report said.

While no protesters appeared to physically harm Wheeler, once he was inside the building a few people tried unsuccessfully to push past his security team in an apparent attempt to get inside. Others threw water bottles and other projectiles at the glass door, according to a video tweeted by New York Times correspondent Mike Baker.

I wish the security had refused to protect him.

If he wants to side with violent thugs let him suffer.

He needs to get out more between midnight and five in the morning and be a part of what is going on EVERY night. Maybe he’d get tired of it and do something about it. He did find out what they think of him, that’s a start.

These are all stupid kids in the streets or young adults with a severe case of arrested development. They do not represent adult society. If they were not in the streets rioting, they would be at home dying their hair purple.

That mayor is a class act idiot.

No sympathy from me. This mayor belongs in a cage.

Some of them are owned by China, though. I would say there is the battle in the Matrix trying to persuade idiots and drones to take the red pill and there is a battle against the robot machine itself which is China.

Didn’t a lot of these woke MOFOs already dye their hair purple, before rioting? 😁

Let me get this straight. This mayor is attacking and riling up the crowds against the feds and the building , then he scurries away scared and declare the situation in Portland a riot....

If only we all had a ‘security’ detail... Actually... if you have a conceal and carry permit, you do have a ‘security detail’.

In Canada, we only have one option... Running away.

Wheeler's being booed and Libby Schaaf's house getting "marked" in Oakland tells us that these Leftie mayors are out of the loop.

They obviously thought they could feed the alligator and avoid trouble since they were sympathetic to the cause, but the cause is showing us that it is even more extreme than the Leftie mayors.

Anyone who doesn't understand that the revolution has started needs to get with the program.

This makes me smile! That POS thinks he's going to go into the lion's den and pose for a photo and he has to be rescued from the approaching gang of blood hungry savage animals. Do it again, take a chair and whip with you and attempt to tame the beasts. Lol🍿!

That’s pretty bad, for this dude, when even the communists don’t like him.

Well, the POS mayor of Minneapolis tried it too. Maybe the jerk thinks it just hadn’t been tried by the right person. I think he sadly underestimated those dip wads. 🤗
