White House correspondent Brian Karem just destroyed Donald Trump
Whatever Donald Trump was hoping to accomplish in Portland, he’s failed. The protesters didn’t run and hide from his goons. Nor did the resulting clashes do anything to convince swing voters that America needs more of Trump’s brand of “leadership.”
Even with the Trump regime now in the process of pulling its thugs out of Portland, Donald Trump is still insisting that it’s somehow not happening. It’s not clear if Trump is lying or delusional. What is clear is that Trump is antithetical to everything that this country is supposed to stand for.
Fortunately, White House correspondent Brian Karem – who frequently clashes with Donald Trump during press briefings – came up with the perfect tweet to take out Trump’s trash over the Portland debacle:
I have covered every president since Reagan. I had disagreements with them all. But until @realDonaldTrump I never met one who actively wanted to destroy the American ideal. It isn't about politics. It's about the survival of the American dream. Trump is the American nightmare. https://t.co/SjeS5bb5hm

Meanwhile Donald Trump is now threatening to send his goons to invade other American cities. But we expect that to go about as poorly for him as it did in Portland. With everyone from moms to veterans now taking to the streets to push back against Trump’s thuggery, and Trump cutting and running whenever things get tough, he’s not winning this battle.
