Reporters in Portland posted on Twitter that there are some 600 cars participating in the conservative pro-Trump car caravan just outside Portland and the group was planning to drive through Clackamas to Portland. Antifa are discussing ways to oppose & stop them. They were unsuccessful in getting the rally cancelled.
The event was taking place in a Portland suburb (Clackamas). The event is peaceful. The name of the group that organized the group is called “Maga Drag the Interstate”.
” They’re all going to drive into Portland. Antifa have used nails and other sharp objects to pop tires at their riots,” Andy Ngo posted on Twitter. “The travel route has been released. Looks like they’re all staying on the highway around Portland and are not going into downtown.,” he said.
A Correspondent for the New York Times posted video and commentary:
“Organizers encouraged concealed carry to the event, but some are open carrying,” Barker said. “With the usual caveat that I’m terrible at crowd estimates, I’d say about 1,000 people are here throughout the parking lot right now and maybe like 1 million flags. The current plan is to drive into Portland as a huge caravan at 6 p.m.” he said.
Another reporter posted on Twitter:
Police were on the sceene, and directing traffic, trying to keep things under control.
The far left was “Terrified”.
The event was identified as a Trump Caravan and Back the Blue rally:
According to their website, MagaDragTheInternet.com their mission is:
“American patriots from all corners of the Country will gather together and organize into rolling flag parade caravans within their States. They will circle their highways and byways, ending at their capital cities in a glorious flurry of red, white, and blue–and a big ol’ heap of old-fashioned American patriotism.
In cities across the Country participants will begin in several major cities from areas around their state to form local caravans that will eventually combine into a single, large rolling parade that will route through the Capital city and spread a message of hope, unity, and patriotism.”

No respect for law and order! Please people get a positive response to your situation! Are you really that stupid? Do better for yourself and others!
Portland liberals are “terrified!” ????
Meanwhile, BurnLootMurder is trying to burn down the city and kill cops every night…
I’m confused, so why is it a bad thing that they are riding through the streets peacefully. Why is this article making it sound so negative when there will most likely not be any flag burning or burning of any kind or disrespecting of law enforcement. Is the media upset that the status quo of violence will not be seen by these folks. I hope someone can clarify why this is a bad thing.
I agree
Yes!!! It is absolutely so silly that they are terrified of people driving around with flags but yet they are not terrified of the burning looting and rioting and murdering that has been going on for the last several months!?!
This is a peaceful rally for Republicans. All Americans have their Constitutional 2nd A Rights. Portland has made their own Marshall law and are burning buildings, flags, causing mayhem, firing at police, etc. So Republicans can’t wave our American Flag, show their support for our President and the police officers who risk their lives to save ours? The twists they put on stories to support the Dem narrative is ridiculous! Trump 2020! ???? ????????????????????????????????
The only way you will stop this is to fight back, meet force with force! Authorities will have to act the cowards that the rioters are will stop coming if they know they will get hurt……
They are not only republicans, but law abiding Americans that are fed up and reclaiming our country from terrorists.
The Democratic controlled media are going to TRY to make this a bad thing. It isn’t.
It’s Americans standing up for what they believe in. It’s their RIGHT.
TRUMP 2020 plus 4 more since the House impeached him he can legally run for another 4 after 2024.
Wow. You are seriously delusional if you believe that Trump can “legally run for another 4” years because he was impeached. Do some research.
We should give him4 extra year’s for wasting the last4 years
America is coming for your communist asses!
Love the tweet about how they were terrified to go out with this far right mob protesting. As if the rioting, random attacks in innocent people, made for a great night on the town. And horror of horrors, someone took their coat off so they must have been picking a fight. I guess they missed all the Trump protests that actually allowed peaceful BLM protestors to speak? Try even waking down the street near most BLM rioters with anything Trump related and be prepared to get a beat down.
I suggest everyone watch Hillary’s America on Amazon. It will teach them a lot. The government works for us not the other way around.
When is Seattle ? We will be there with lots a friends .
Such hypocrisy! So much manipulation! So many lies!
Night after night after night of looting, burning, assaults, shootings and now they’re scared of a drive through peace rally??
Since we the Republicans, have finally had enough of this crap and will no longer be bullied, they’re now ‘terrified” of us?? ????
Really??
People are sick and tired of the media narration portraying a president who has done more for poc and working class people then any president in recent years. We are sick of the Demobrats destroying what tax payers have paid for. If these Demobrats dont like America the gtfoh. Were sick of these so called peaceful protesters destroying cities then asking for aid. Make them fix their own mess.
Get um PATRIOTS and run them out of your city. These freaks are wacked and need to be removed or ran out of your city. Keep filming Americans and keep chasing after them until they leave forever,that’s what we did with 6,000 patriots.
I agree time to take back our Country. No more looting, burning disrespect for law and order. Proud of you folks!! Prayers are with you.
Nobody gives a frog’s fat derriere if Republicans want to rally. Just leave your guns at home and stay away from us. It is obvious that those who don’t are only trying to cause trouble. (On EITHER side of the political spectrum) The country is plenty big enough for everyone to stage their own marches and rallies with likeminded people, and give the other side a wide berth. We are also standing up for what we believe in, and have every right to do so as well.
The only reason to bring a gun or weapon to a rally or march is if you’re a psychopath just looking for an opportunity to kill someone.

Your kidding right, it is to protect them from the crazy ones out there causing harm to other, It is supposed to be a peaceful really not attacking others or burning or looting These idiots need to be stopped. They are just domestic terrorists and need to pay for their out of control bull. It they wan tot protest then do it peacefully,
You are right, rape is horrific, even if Biden was accused of it. And cheating on your spouse is never okay; it wasn’t for Clinton and also is not for Kamala Harris whose affair with a married man started her career….
