Trump blasts Antifa after Portland rioters topple Lincoln, Roosevelt statues
nypost ^ | 10/12/2020 | Mark Moore

President Trump called on federal law enforcement to target the “Radical Left” and Antifa after rioters in Portland on Sunday evening toppled statues of Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt during “day of rage” protests over the Christopher Columbus holiday.

“The FBI and Law Enforcement must focus their energy on ANTIFA and the Radical Left, those who have spent the summer trying to burn down poorly run Democrat Cities throughout the USA!,” the president wrote in a string of tweets Monday after the “indigenous peoples day of rage,” organized by a faction of Antifa.

“Taking advantage of fools. Law & Order! Portland, call in the Feds!,” Trump said in another posting.

The president, who has made law and order and criticism of the national riots following the killing of George Floyd a major part of his re-election campaign, also linked former Vice President Joe Biden to Antifa.

“These are Biden fools. ANTIFA RADICALS. Get them FBI, and get them now!,” Trump wrote, adding, “Put these animals in jail, now. The Radical Left only knows how to take advantage of very dumb ‘leadership’ fools. This is Biden! Law & Order!” in another.

It’s about to get worse in Portland.
They’re going to replace progressive Ted Wheeler with a genuine communist.

I love this president. I do believe that until now, God has protected America. If Biden wins, I believe that protection has been withdrawn and we will get whatever horribleness awaits us.

Makes me cry. Yeah, I’m just that emotional about my beloved homeland. Whenever I cross the border, and put my feet on American soil, I can FEEL it. Literally. “I’m home!” I think to myself.

“They’re going to replace progressive Ted Wheeler with a genuine communist.”

Oh no. Talk about h*ll in a handbasket.

The fools apparently have no idea what freedoms they are about to willingly give up.

The Founding Fathers are shedding tears. As is any patriot who died in the Revolution.

These are Biden fools. ANTIFA RADICALS. Get them FBI, and get them now

I wouldn't expect anything out of the FBI regarding ANTIFA, no doubt they know full well the makeup and leadership of the organization and since nothing has happened yet, it tells me there are al whloe lot of High Pollutant Proud Democrats and their Offspring, cousins,... intricately involved, I wouldn't be surprised if the FBI has their own Leadership Position and is running it out of DC.

The Roosevelt and Lincoln statues could not have been tipped over, since Antifa is only an idea. Ideas can’t tip over statues. It must have been the hurricane.

This is great! The more of this those antifa assholes do, the better. Lincoln and Roosevelt were both great men in everybody’s eyes. Those jerks who are trying to tear them down are making people see just who they are. They are fools.

Didn’t the President issue an executive order declaring toppling of a statue to be an automatic 10-year jail term?

Okay, Teddy is evil because he built a canal, I guess.

But what did Abe do to PO the pinkos?

Yeah, he should send in the National Guard to monitor and arrest every antifa member in sight

Instead of just tweeting, he needs to take ACTION, he’s the
PRESIDET for goodness sake!

Do something, don’t just tweet!

The corrupt FBI won’t do anything

He just said in his rally he has directed the FBI to immediately investigate and prosecute the offenders to the fullest extent of the law that pulled the statues down,
The destruction of the Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt statues

BTW the Newsmaxtv channel ALWAYS SHOWS the Trump rallies all the way through, and also CSPAN,
