That is in general dangerous and not to be recommended.

The better way is to configure your sudoers list to allow your regular 
user account to run the port command through sudo without requiring a 
password. Its trivial to do and there are plenty examples on the web on 
how to do it. e.g.

<https://askubuntu.com/questions/159007/how-do-i-run-specific-sudo-commands-without-a-password>

This is way better than doing everything in a `sudo bash` shell as 
*only* that one command will run without requiring a password. Whereas 
what you are doing everything you type in that terminal session, good or 
bad, will run with sudo privileges.
