While Daly was Mayer, my dad had several restaurants in Chicago. Made regular “contributions” to union guys who came to his office and asked for “contributions” to city workers’ health funds. I was there one day visiting his office when he did that. Pulled out the checkbook, winked at me, and wrote the check. Daly always lived up to his word, kept dad’s trucks moving while teamsters were on strike, etc. etc.
Daly was the last “good” crooked dem mayor. Really kept the lid on crime at least where he thought it mattered.
Lightfoot? No one can count on her for anything, not even other blacks who murder one another on a daily basis.
Daly knew what to do with those diry hippies in 68.
