Trump and racism. The two get out of jail free cards leftists use.

And sadly, they work for them.

“Lori Lightfoot beclowns herself . . . again.”

But... she’s in charge of a major city, living like a queen, and getting wealthy.

I’d be tempted to act a fool for that kind of reward.

Cops haven’t had a contract for years.

Trump’s fault, too?

And the Chicago Teachers Union is quite likely a big part of the reason Second City Cop is no more.

Reminds me of Richard Nixon's quote: "You won't have Nixon to kick around anymore". Richard Nixon received the same hateful treatment.

Who are these Dem losers going to blame their failures on without President Trump to kick around anymore?

Lori Lightfoot stubs her toe going downstairs and blames Trump. Lori Lightfoot stubs her toe going upstairs and blames Trump. Lori Lightfoot thinks there is a vast Trump conspiracy out to get her and hires more bodyguards.

I think the mayor of Chicago needs to focus on gang violence before she blames anyone for anything.

Pretty much.

If the teachers strike, call it an illegal job action and void the contract.

Nothing is stopping IL from doing it.

God knows they’d do it to the cops if they had a contract and were dumb enough to try it.
