Brandon Johnson is the worst big city mayor, maybe ever.
I can’t believe they actually found someone worse than Lori Lightfoot.

Least popular mayor in Chicago history, straight up and it’s only been since May last year.
* Dude is in over his head and is a textbook narcissist
* only listens to the teachers’ union and/or sycophants
* Significant portion of City Council in open rebellion to the point where **they commissioned the poll that shows just how unpopular he is**
* the media is actively hostile to him because of his combative defensiveness to the point where even neutral papers are saying his administration always finds a way to look bad
* walking HR violation of a press secretary fired, mayor office staffers attempted to “peace circle” the concerns away. They worked together and are “longtime friends”
* another mayoral aide donated to campaigns **calling himself the mayor and using the mayor’s address.** Said mayoral aide’s mom lost Houston mayoral race last year. Mayoral aide kept voting in Houston even though a requirement to work for Chicago is to live in Chicago
* “collaborator in chief” yet JB Pritzker says that he definitely isn’t calling on a regular basis and is “baffled” that he even suggests he is
* cluster of a migrant crisis handling to the point where it was clear he had no idea how to engage stakeholders within the city
* Illinois General assembly leaders who he worked directly for and whose kids grew up with each other yet Johnson can’t be bothered to give them a wishlist
* blames MAGA Republicans for his proposed property transfer tax getting rejected at the polls when Chicago has never passed a referendum like that and isn’t used to binding referenda
* thinks he has a colossal mandate even though he won the closest mayoral election since the 80s
* entire school board resigned on him because they didn’t want to fire the city superintendent over not wanting to approve what is effectively a payday loan to pay for teacher union demands
* Stupid quote machine however I’ll leave you with these two: “it may be a yes or no question for you but I will respectfully ask you to ask your question and I’ll respond in the way in which I want to” and “I am one of the greatest human beings for just teaching middle school students”
Others call him a left version of Trump and I agree
