And to no one’s surprise, Lori Lightfoot is using typical communist Democrat excuses for her primary night loss for Chicago mayor last night. You see, they didn’t lose re-election because her policies sucked or because violent crime is out of control in Chicago. No, instead, Lightfoot lost because she was treated unfairly because she is black and a female. Lightfoot says ‘certain folks’ don’t support Black women in leadership. The only surprising thing here is that Lightfoot didn’t use the excuse that since she is gay, the voters of Chicago are homophobic for voting her out.
Ousted Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot explained away her Tuesday election loss as a result of her being a “Black woman in America.”
Lightfoot faced eight challengers and finished Tuesday night’s election in third place, failing to get enough support to continue into a runoff election. Reporters pressed her on whether she believed she was treated unfairly during the campaign process.
“I’m a Black woman in America. Of course,” she responded, according to reports.
“Regardless of tonight’s outcome, we fought the right fights and we put this city on a better path,” Lightfoot said Tuesday night, adding that serving as Chicago’s mayor was “the honor of a lifetime.”
