In a stunning display of what's wrong with modern American politics, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is currently leading her reelection race despite carrying an over 50 percent disapproval rating among likely voters - proving once again that in deep blue cities, Democrats can literally fail upward no matter how badly they govern.
The numbers tell a story that should terrify every patriot watching America's cities crumble under radical leftist leadership. More than half of LA voters think Bass is doing a terrible job, yet she's still positioned to win another term to continue her destructive policies.
This is the same Karen Bass who has presided over LA's continued descent into a dystopian nightmare of homelessness, crime, and economic decline. Under her watch, the city has become a playground for drug addicts and criminals while hardworking families flee in droves to red states where sanity still prevails.
The Democrat Machine Protects Its Own
How does a mayor with majority disapproval stay in power? Simple - the Democrat political machine and their allies in the mainstream media work overtime to protect failed leftist politicians, even when voters clearly want change.
While President Trump is busy making America great again with his America First agenda, mayors like Bass continue dragging their cities into the gutter with policies that prioritize illegal immigrants over citizens and criminals over victims.
"This is what happens when voters keep electing the same failed Democrat politicians who created the problems in the first place," observed one political analyst.
Meanwhile, as Bass clings to power despite her obvious failures, cities and states with conservative leadership are thriving under policies that actually put Americans first.
The question patriotic Americans should be asking is simple: How long will voters in places like Los Angeles continue rewarding failure with reelection? The answer might determine whether these once-great cities can ever be saved from the radical left's destruction.
