Fast-forward to last night, and the store was set ablaze:

Breaking: #Antifa in Portland have set the downtown @Apple store building on fire. There was security staff there. The business had only recently reopened following months of nightly rioting. The store also turned itself into a BLM memorial. #PortlandRiots https://t.co/xP1dkEBV6Z

That’s a big fire considering what Biden, Nadler and others have said recently:
… but don’t worry, everyone. Biden said antifa is just an idea. So the fire isn’t real, just an idea.

Antifa is a myth. There is literally no fire. C’mon. At least that’s what democrat congressman Jerrold Nadler says.

Rioters in Portland sure didn’t seem impressed by Apple’s support for the Left’s causes.
Hey @Apple you can never be woke enough for the woke mob. https://t.co/SCBtq66L60
