President Donald Trump late Friday praised Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler for condemning rioters. Wheeler, a Democrat who is also police commissioner, said the day before that rioters were committing attempted murder.

“This is a quote from the mayor; he’s come a long way,” Trump said at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
