Oregon AG: 'It's a very dangerous time here in America' - Velshi - MSNBC



Trump escalates his calls to deploy National Guard troops to Portland, which he calls “war ravaged” and “under siege.” Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield is fighting to stop him, calling his threats “un-American” and “a very dangerous precedent.”
