Portland mayor is escorted to safety by his security team. Angry 'protesters' follow and try to assault him despite his support on the front lines of the riot

OUR VIEW:

The mayors of Portland, Seattle, and Denver ought to resign.

These weak leaders, in their desperation to placate the anti-police mob, are putting lives at risk.

They are not up to the task of governing their cities. https://t.co/eyC7EeCl7V

The people of Oregon need to start voting a different way - or this will continue. https://t.co/wo0cBaXU7S
