St. Louis Mayor: Dem Policies Aren’t Causing Problems in Cities, We Have ‘Historic’ Inflation
Breitbart ^ | 07/05/2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 07/05/2023 5:04:32 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During an interview with the Fox News Rundown podcast released on Tuesday, St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones responded to a question on whether problems in major cities are due to Democratic leadership and policies by stating that we have to consider the state of the economy where we’re “in the midst of a historic inflationary period coming out of a pandemic.”

Host Jessica Rosenthal asked, [relevant exchange begins around 20:55] “And in terms of maybe some — when you look around the country…most of our larger cities are run by Democrats. So, this is where the conversation does get political. I’m from Los Angeles, major retailers have closed up shops in Santa Monica. The homeless situation is unlike anything people have seen, people who have been in L.A. their entire lives, that includes my parents. You see retailers in San Francisco closing too. Home values have gone down there as people leave. I wonder about that political conversation, when people say, these cities are run by Democrats, Democratic policies, what do you say in response to that?”

Democrat Politicians constantly lie about the disasters they create, they encourage, they want.

They want chaos so that stupid people will vote for them so they can do it all over again.

Nearly every large city is run by Democrats, it seems.

They have done so much damage that it’s basically impossible to turn it around.

Houston, Detroit, St. Louis, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Baltimore.

If I got one incorrect, please let me know. I’m sure I missed a whole lot of them.

While the man is spewing word salad, he trips over a few truths that he doesn't recognize. Correlation isn't necessarily causation, but it suggests a place to start looking - e.g. right at home.
