Night after night, Portland’s Democratic mayor Ted Wheeler allows antifa/#BlackLivesMatter rioters to run wild in his city, carrying out organized criminal campaigns of violence. Last night, a man wearing a “Patriot Prayer” hat was murdered there.
“I am not sad that a f—ing fascist died tonight,” says a woman at the antifa gathering in downtown Portland. The crowd laughs and cheers. The ID of the deceased is not confirmed but he is believed to be a Trump & blue lives supporter. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/XV6471FSuF

The question is: Why?
What’s in it for Wheeler?
We know why Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt refuses to press charges against rioters: because that’s what DAs backed by George Soros money do.
President Donald Trump is not a fan of the way Wheeler has handled the crisis:
President Trump ramped up his attacks against Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) on Sunday after a person was killed in the Oregon city following skirmishes between supporters of the president and Black Lives Matter demonstrators.
Trump did not address the incident, however he posted multiple tweets claiming that tensions in the city demanded federal intervention. In response to a tweet documenting clashes between Trump supporters and counterprotesters, the president claimed that it was a result of incompetence from the mayor.
“The big backlash going on in Portland cannot be unexpected after 95 days of watching and incompetent Mayor admit that he has no idea what he is doing,” Trump said. “The people of Portland won’t put up with no safety any longer. The Mayor is a FOOL. Bring in the National Guard!”He added in a separate tweet that Wheeler was “incompetent, much like Sleepy Joe Biden,” referencing the Democratic presidential nominee.
“Our great National Guard could solve these problems in less than 1 hour,” he said. “Local authorities must ask before it is too late. People of Portland, and other Democrat run cities, are disgusted with Schumer, Pelosi, and [their] local ‘leaders.’ They want Law & Order!”
This follows an appeals court lifting a stay against federal law enforcement in Portland.
Even more puzzling: Those same antifa/#BlackLivesMatter rioters he refuses to reign in seem to hold Wheeler in contempt as well, as they occupied his condo lobby and demanded his resignation.
Rose City Antifa has been around since 2007, and has not been shy about stating their goals in Portland: It’s the violent overthrow of the United States.
Weirdly, Wheeler is running for reelection at the same time he allows riots to continue night after night, against runoff opponent Sarah Iannarone, who is evidently even more pro-rioter than he is.
Even Portland’s Democratic governor Kate Brown says enough is enough. And this despite Oregon State Police ceasing to protect the besieged Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse in downtown Portland.
So the question remains: How does Portland’s Democratic mayor Ted Wheeler benefit from rioters continuing to assault police officers and commit other felonies in downtown Portland?
What’s in it for him?

“against runoff opponent Sarah Iannarone, who is evidently even more pro-rioter than he is.”
“Let me [the Governor] be clear: It’s time for the violence and vandalism to end so Portland can focus on the important work to be done to achieve real change for racial justice.”
Well, you have your answer: the majority of voters that live there are down with the nutty agenda.
