PORTLAND, Ore. — A couple hundred Proud Boys knelt in Delta Park for a prayer to Jesus to mark the start of their rally Saturday. “Reveal your purpose to us,” a man said into a microphone, addressing God from the flatbed of a truck parked on the grass. Tented tables in the parking lot hawked Trump merchandise, and rally attendees carried American flags and thin-blue-line flags to show support for police. He said he voted for Democrats until choosing George W. Bush in 2004, believing it was important to support a wartime president. Karl said he voted for Trump in 2016 and intends to again in November.
