No, he called it little Beirut because it has a reputation for violent protest. He didn't even coin the phrase and both his Father and Bill Clinton, durring their administrations, have used the reference to our fair City(I know, this isn't about Clinton
)
What really chaps my hide is that most of these protesters are not even from Portland, but are from all around the country and attend local colleges from as far away as Eugene and Seatle.....and for some reason anytime there is someone of note in Portland they come down here and tie up traffic at best and destroy property and assault innocents at worse
It's not even a party thing as they have done this to many others outside the Republican party most recently at a Hillary Clinton book signing(I know, this isn't about Clinton
).
