'Because those cities have Democrats for their mayors like Chicago and LA.'

- Black Mayors, IOW.

'As do likely most, if not all cities, in Red States.'

-State laws have far more to do with governance than do Mayors, ditto federal laws.

'The major point I was attempting to make is the Progressive and Socialist leaning Democrats tend to have very poor records as mayors of their respective cities.'

- PROVE it. What records? What laws? Which cities? Give examples or don't waste our time. Nobody needs your vague Right-wing assertions and political lies.

'Their policies seldom improve anything, and they drive much of their citizenry into a deeper dependence of government.'

- Again, PROVE it. You don't like government helping people. I think you're DEAD wrong. Why are your views better? Got evidence to support anything?

'That is not a recipe for a success in anything other than greater debt.'

- TRUMP seems to be your idea of success. He is the OPPOSITE of that.
