If she is a leftist she will not only fail but fail spectacularly. When I was in my teens Jimmah was giving speeches like she just gave and I, not having a clue about dem or republican left or right, listened and held him to his rhetoric . He failed but the lesson I learned is that democrats CAN’T fix anything when they fail. They literally aren’t t reasonable enough to say “well that didn’t work let’s see what does”. Jimmah SEEMED like a reasonable person but he wasn’t. He was an idiot ideologue.

It’s gotten to the point where you have to ask, are the voters really getting what they voted or given how corrupted the California voting system is are the unions and political power players controlling the outcome thru ballot harvesting, etc. thwarting the will of the people

Let me guess, here’s “the plan”:

”All of you who have worked and played by the rules and taken responsibility for yourself, and own a home, will be taxed out of said home, which will be given to the homeless.”

LA's problems cannot be fixed and California is a lost cause. Pity, because it used to be the most beautiful state in the nation. And the pigs that caused the collapse are fleeing into similarly beautiful states and are destroying them, as well.

She's just going to make it easier to be homeless, and the homelessness will increase.

I'm always amazed that liberals cannot grasp that fact. Liberals are the problem with America.

I am all for ending homelessness.

She does not say how she will end homelessness.

Most homeless people are mentally ill.

Anyone can become mentally ill. One day mental functions good, next day mental functions broken. Mental illness is an injury to the brain, just like a broken arm is an injury to the am.

Yep. Mencken said “democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

You are correct on both counts. It was beautiful and the dem crap is moving on to destroy other states. By recent voting Arizona and Colorado have been destroyed. The cancer is spreading. Consider their voting strength in DC.

End homelessness? It cant be done using dim-0 principles. Anything that you want more of, you subsidize and you will get more of it.

dim-0s seem to want more homeless people.

She’s walking a fine line. Shipping folks out of town would “reduce homelessness.” But it’s cheap. She needs millions in funding to be a real mayor.

What a joke, the problem is going to exponentially increase now.
I wonder how many derelict buildings she and her family and campaign contributors own that the city will now pay 5x more than they are worth to purchase for the drug addicts they call homeless people.
She will make serious bank, as she is a corrupt democrat minority woman, and therefore untouchable.
Good job L.A.

Hey look! another lesbian minority put in charge of a failed big city, just to take the blame. So racist.

Even here in Tulsa (I moved here from kali; work related both counts), I'm seeing waaaay too many kali tags. And, in the last election, Oklahoma was red, except for Tulsa.

Dunno why they move here. It's ugly and inhospitable. But housing is cheap.

I hate it. (The fact that kalifornians are moving here.)

Want to hear the real insult.

She knows she hasn’t got a clue, so she actually said, “I hope Rick Caruso will
agree to be part of my administration.”

This so he can implement his plan, and make her look good.

Yes, to everything you said. Mexicans make up 50% of the vote in LA County. There is no way on Earth that half the Mexicans voted for a black, racist clown who hates Mexicans.
