"Ted Wheeler, the wacky Radical Left Do Nothing Democrat Mayor of Portland, who has watched great death and destruction of his City during his tenure, thinks this lawless situation should go on forever," Trump tweeted on Sunday - adding "He tried mixing with the Agitators and Anarchists and they mocked him."

Earlier Sunday, Wheeler blamed Trump for the violence.

When asked what his solution is to the violence gripping Portland, the mayor suggested that he'll be pushing for criminal justice reform - which will be accomplished by "Re-imagining what local policing can look like."

Trump has paid his respects to the deceased, Jay Bishop.Joe Biden's handlers have crafted a carefully written condemnation following the Portland shooting - which essentially boils down to "violence is bad."

"I condemn violence of every kind by anyone, whether on the left or the right. And I challenge Donald Trump to do the same," reads the statement, which continues: "We must not become a country at war with ourselves."

Biden's staff then took aim at President Trump, writing "The job of a President is to lower the temperature. To bring people who disagree with one another together. To make life better for all Americans, not just those who agree with us, support us, or vote for us."
