    It doesn’t matter what you do, the narrative is not based on truth. The city will either suffer because of “rioting communist lefties”, or succeed because of Trump’s “amazingness” either will play into his hands and Trump lies about everything.

    The benefit of making the city suffer is sending a message to other cities who may still have to make this choice. Fash costs cash.

      And who do you think ends up paying for that?

      If you truly believe the outcome is essentially the same, then why would you do something so self-sabotaging as bankrupting your own city.

      Short sighted and foolish.
