Good to see Trump is keeping up with developments, and isn't about to make a complete twat of himself...again.

Trump doesn’t say National Guard, he says Troops. “Full Force” authorized,

At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Looks like Portland's MAX Light Rail is still functional despite all the damage, but someone needs to clean up the mess, and rebuilding will take years.

Straight into the heart of the antifa jungle.
