After the largest peaceful pro-democracy demonstrations in American history, and a blue wave election where voters clearly and loudly said FIGHT ALL OF THIS CHAOS, it is malpractice and disqualifying for an elected Democrat to suggest caving to Trump.

Things have grown so dire in Portland, Oregon that residents may soon face a shortage of artisanal baked goods, almond milk rose petal beetroot lattes, and cold brew mushroom tonic.
