Only 1 city has a Republican mayor, Gulfport. What is up with Gulfport???

President Trump:

I used to be said that Flint made cars and Mexico had contaminated water

Now Flint has contaminated water and Mexico makes cars.

[Leaning Right]

If only we could find a common thread here, something that connects all of these failed cities.

DC went from being run by irresponsible democrats, to somewhat responsible democrats, and now SJWs who just raised the minimum wage to 15$ an hour (which will kill the service industry) and want to now ban straws.

[Hojczyk]

Wrong title...all Democrat cities run for more than thirty years

[VanShuyten]

DC is run about as well as can be expected, considering what they have to work with.

[Oldexpat]

Home rule was bad news for DC.

[morphing libertarian]

Chicago, LA SF Just about any city with a long time dem government

[PJBankard]

Don’t know how Baltimore didn’t make it in the top 10.

Harrison County.

What is the rating below worst?

[1Old Pro]

Mayor Bill DeBlasio of NYC, I’m shocked he has turned the world’s city into a sh*thole.

[smalltownslick]

No NOLA? Nagin, Landrieu....

[McGavin999]

Chicago isn’t on the list?

[cranked]

Oh look, they all libtard progessive sh*tholes.......

[Josa]

And Gulfport is a small city/large town with a population of 72,000. Gambling and the Naval Base there are the bulk of its prosperity.

[StormEye]

If the federal government should pull out of DC; I mean
everything: Congress, White House, Supreme Court, all of the
agencies, Pentagon, museums, etc, that city would
look like Soweto, South Africa in month.

Rome went from 1 MM to 50,000 after the fall of the Empire.
