A Trump supporter who says he was beaten up for wearing a red โMake America Great Againโ hat outside a bar in Portland, Oregon, has slammed the city's โradicalโ political culture after a grand jury declined to indict his alleged assailants. Luke Lenzner slammed the decision, after a Multnomah County grand jury on Thursday said it would not prosecute Adebisi Okuneye, 23, (left) and Leopold Hauser, 22.(right) โI know who hit me, who assaulted me,โ Lenzner told The Oregonian. โIn any other city they would have been indicted.โ Okuneye and Hauser were arrested for their role in an August 24 incident at Growlerโs Taproom on Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard, where Lenzner claims he was attacked while enjoying a night out with his wife. But cops later painted a different picture, suggesting Lenzner had been wearing the hat to get a reaction, and had been involved in a confrontation at another bar earlier in the evening. ๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธ
