Well, we’re leaving the Trump Traffic Jam at Clackamas Town Center, a mall parking lot outside Portland city limits. Pity this horse.
Pictured: a guy in a “socialism is for fags” shirt. Winner for “offensive shirt which tries to make two good things seem bad by associating them”
Speaking of fashy fashion: there’s a marked uptick in teenage white boys wearing outfits strongly reminiscent of the Kenosha shooter, and I sadly don’t think it’s a coincidence.
Punisher skull flag. Mark your bingo card.
And in “shitty flag display” bingo. this truck is the free space in the middle.
We saw this dog try to fling itself out of the bed of this truck. The escape attempt was unsuccessful.
V For Vendetta mask. Mark your bingo card.
Punisher Flag Sticker/Gadsden Flag medley. Mark your bingo card.
The flag bingo free-space truck, getting bonus points for not knowing what “born in the USA” is about.
Current scene on Mcgloughlin blvd
This line of cars blocking traffic continues for at least another mile
Entering downtown over the Morrison bridge
More shots of the caravan
And in downtown, the Trump Traffic Jam is encountering the stink eye of every pedestrian in town.
I have never heard the “fuck Donald Trump” song played so many times from so many different cars. Everyone stuck on Washington who doesn’t have a Trump Flag seems to be playing it.
I wonder how downtown residents feel about this caravan (sound on to better understand)
Most of these vehicles are being directed toward I-405 by PPB. Some have pulled off or turned south.
On 13th and Washington some of the car caravan parking to stay
Lots of people encouraging the Trump caravan to continue out of the city
Some of the vehicles heading back east on Burnside back into downtown
There appears to have been a shooting near third and Morrison. I do not know how many customs or their status. The police have closed down third between Morrison and alder. I spoke to one person who did not wish to be identified no subtitles at this time so sound on.
Chants of “Black lives matter” as people start marching
Police go to confront the march
Joey Gibson of the hate group Patriot Prayer, who showed up in the immediate aftermath of the shooting on 3rd, appears to have been significantly maced, and is now being marched out of downtown by a crowd of several hundred protesters chanting “black lives matter”
Gibson appears to have hidden out in the Chevron, where police are now clearing the area.
Gibson, in black, has been given a police escort out of the area.
And we are back at the JC. Folks are resting by the nightmare elk
Current chant: “fuck Ted Wheeler”
