Actually this is almost a stroke of genius.
Bring in a White Mayor now and you can blame HIM for the sins of the last 40 years...(L’s/D’s seemed to be able to blame the R’s for all the maladies of the country when they finally wond back Congress after 40 years).
Of course, in Detroit, like IL, the Mayor (GOV) is just a stepping stone to becoming a license plate manufacturer.
Gary, Indiana elected a White Mayor not too long ago (a Dem, of course, over a Black Republican). He wasn’t able to do anything and resigned early.

Exactly. Elect a fall guy to take on the role of scapegoat. Then its right back to progressivism.
