Elmo Trolls Antifa

There’s an ongoing Antifa protest in Portland outside and ICE facility. The goons in black have been there for weeks with bullhorns, drums, etc. to oppose ICE, to the point that some neighbors are fed up with the noise and begging Trump to send in the National Guard.

We didn’t get the National Guard but, over the weekend, someone put on an ELMO costume and went to the ICE facility to troll the protesters.

An adult dressed in an Elmo costume was caught on camera trolling protesters outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Portland, Oregon, over the weekend, clashing with demonstrators.

Katie Daviscourt of The Post Millennial filmed the confrontation at the ICE South Waterfront facility on Saturday.

In the video, the unidentified person in the costume is seen posing on the ground in front of the entrance to the ICE facility, crawling around outside and then dancing in front of the anti-ICE demonstrators who attempted to confront the person.

Here’s Elmo posing between Antifa and ICE.

They immediately accused him of “acting like a pedophile.” Then someone shouted about native lands and Elmo replied, “I’m Elmo, I want everyone to be friends!”

After weeks of waiting, Based @elmo finally showed up at the Portland @ICEgov facility — and Antifa lost their damn minds!

I think what this trolling really highlights is that Antifa take themselves very, very seriously. They are prepared to deal with critics who also take them seriously, but seem lost when confronted with someone who is mocking them as children. They just don’t know what to do. Elmo seemed to expect violence would be the eventual result. He just keeps mocking them.

The Antifa dummies were having a hard time focusing on ICE because they were dealing with two trolls at once. In this clip two of them are harassing Elmo while another guy with a bullhorn is shouting at someone else about the Epstein files.

Elmo has been in the news a lot in the last few weeks. Just two weeks ago, someone hacked the Elmo X account and tweeted some anti-Semitic stuff.

On Tuesday, Elmo’s X account posted a statement saying the account “was briefly hacked by an outside party, in spite of the security measures in place.”

“We strongly condemn the abhorrent antisemitic and racist content, and the account has since been secured,” it said. “These posts in no way reflect the values of Sesame Workshop or Sesame Street, and no one at the organization was involved.”…

The posts contained slurs against Jews and commentary about President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender who killed himself in prison in 2019 as he faced federal sex trafficking charges. The posts were removed Sunday afternoon, shortly after appearing on the platform.

The stuff posted on the hacked Elmo account sounded like it came from one of the left-wing radicals protesting at Columbia. It was explicitly anti-Trump. But Jon Stewart did a skit about it a few days later in which Elmo had gone “alt-right.” At the end of the skit, Elmo claimed he’d had a change of heart and gone populist left instead after listening to Stewart’s show.

It was a pretty funny skit even though Stewart seemed to have intentionally misinterpreted the hacked tweets. In any case, maybe this skit is what prompted someone to show up as Elmo at the Antifa ICE protest. Whatever prompted it, I hope we see more of it.
