“Now...how many of these have now, and have had for quite a while, Liberal/Democrat leadership and governing bodies?”
So what about the cities that aren’t dying or dead and have Liberal/Democrat leadership? Do those liberals get credit for that as well?
I wish it were true that we could blame this all on Democrats but there are other forces that caused this.
Can you name one? And to the extent you can, I would argue that liberal policies will kill the party sooner or later. Yes, there are other forces at work, but liberal policies only serve to exacerbate not alleviate. A liberal looks at the deterioration and does not ask how to restore economic growth. Instead, the liberal seeks someone to blame and demagogue, aka “the rich” and ends up driving anyone who could bring growth right out the door.

And what cities would that be? Name one.
