Count on mayor Unintelligent Bigmouth to beat his chest over how he whupped Trump. Something to remember next time he has his hat in his hand begging for more Federal money handouts. Trump probably decided a cesspool of progressive/ socialist/ Marxist crime wasn’t worth his time and energy.

Memphis wants to clean up its streets and Chicago apparently doesn’t. Perhaps next election the Chicago voters will vote differently but, should they not, expect the same status quo of crime, violence and usual mayhem in the streets.
