Lightfoot hypes an economic job well done, ignoring her shortcomings – Crain’s*

Chicago’s economy has bounced back strongly from COVID-19—and anyone who disputes that is listening to “naysayers and skeptics” rather than citing true facts. “There is a narrative out there that the city is headed in the wrong direction,” Lightfoot said in remarks as prepared for delivery.  “That noise is completely belied by these objective data points, which show a very robust economy that is creating jobs and opportunity.”

Maybe in her little bubble everything is going swell, but the average Chicagoan is inundated with real life stories of violence, poor services and out of control inflation. People aren’t going to care what she says or how she says it. They are living a nightmare, and somebody is going to get blamed.
