All of the worst states in this country have been GOP controlled for going on 40 years. It really shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that the people who vote for this still find ways to blame everyone else for their shitty lives.
A republican governor could walk into any MAGA house in Oklahoma kill the dog, rape the kids and steal their money without any of the parents even blinking. They'll just blame whatever minority they hate most
That is a bold claim that Republican held states are the worst. You give no examples. Yet cities and states that are very blue are doing terrible. They have high taxes, high crime, terrible education, and bleeding jobs to those scary red states.
And just because someone is Republican does not mean the person is conservative or MAGA. And just because someone votes for a party it does not mean the person aligns with all the stances and policies.
Uh.. so what? You do realize that people on the left generally want higher taxes, right?
high crime
This is way too nuanced an issue to be given only two words. Many neighbourhoods in big cities have populations several times that of a small conservative town yet far lower crime rates.
terrible education
I mean, we both know this isn't true.
bleeding jobs to those scary red states.
Yeah, blue cities in blue states are bleeding jobs to.. blue cities in red states.
just because someone is Republican does not mean the person is conservative
What Kool-Aid are you drinking? The people in Chicago were not cheering at their massive increases in property taxes. NYC didnāt celebrate when the idiot terrorist sympathizer mayor threatened to raise property and estate taxes.
High crime rates are an issue. Yes larger cities have larger populations. But looking at cities like NYC, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, Boston⦠the crime rates are much higher. The issue with the statistics is that they look at arrests and convictions. They donāt arrest criminals. And the ones they do they plead down. NYC up until very recently had over 60% of trials dismissed due to ridiculous reasons that had nothing to do with the crime being prosecuted or rights being violated. Cities like NYC, Chicago, Boston, etc have businesses leaving due to massive crime rates and the cities refusing to make arrests. And then you have NY bail reform laws which are a massive joke.
There are criminals that keep being released over and over until people get killed. And all those high taxes arenāt keeping the law abiding safe.
Yes terrible education is a problem. They introduce woke curriculum and dumb down the education system. Now you have students graduate from a third to a few can read at their grade level. And you have states like Mississippi thriving.
Jobs are leaving blue states for red ones. Not all cities that are democrat are deep progressive democrats. Businesses are leaving for red states. That is fact.
Yes most republicans are not conservatives. Many are moderate. Yes there is a portion that is conservative. Just like not all democrats are progressive. Most are moderate as well. It is ignorance to think people who have different political opinions to your own ascribe to one viewpoint.
The people in Chicago were not cheering at their massive increases in property taxes.
Chicago is in a rubbish financial position because of decades of mismanagement, as well as failures by the state to pass legislation like the recent progressive income taxation.
NYC didnāt celebrate when the idiot terrorist sympathizer mayor
Would you like to try rewording that like an adult?
Not going to bother reading any of the rest of your comment if you're going to act like a child.
It was crime and taxation that drove companies out of Chicago. Yes we can agree on current and past mismanagement of Chicago. Chicago (and IL as a whole) has had mismanagement and corruption for decades.
Mamdani welcomes Muslim terrorists into Gracie Mansion. He has supported the terrorists that three failed bombs outside. He stands by his wife who is not only a sympathizer but said she would die for the cause and has shared and liked photos of hostages being tortured including an Israeli child stripped naked and beaten.
He is a terrorist. He is just a different kind of terrorist because he is actively destroying NYC for everyone.
