Anybody excited to vote for Garcetti in 2020?

Do you want your homeless population to skyrocket and crime to go up?

COLUMBIA — Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is heading to South Carolina this week — another sign that presidential aspirants are beginning to trickle in to the Palmetto State two years ahead of the "First in the South" 2020 Democratic primary.

George Will thinks Garcetti has a real shot at the nomination.

George F. Will: L.A.'s mayor deserves a look by Dems for 2020 | TribLIVE

The problem with this is that there's nothing that Garcetti offers that plenty of other Dems don't offer, and Garcetti's record will not play well. L.A. is a very unpopular city with the rest of the US or for that matter with the rest of the state, and Garcetti has not made it better and indeed has made it worse.

Ok, so this is in regards to the whole county but kind of funny that it came out today with the Garcetti-4-prez talk heating up...

L.A. County's homeless problem is worsening despite billions from tax measures

You don’t want a President that says we should thank criminals for serving their time in jail . Or refers to criminals as “justice affected individuals “??

Yeah I believe most of the country is against sanctuary cities at least I heard .

He went to Mexico and told them “we need to build bridges not walls”
In other words he’s for open borders and for Americans to pay to support Mexicos citizens .

I've been seeing Garcettis name more often as a potential presidential candidate, what a wild and terrible idea. Crime is up, homelessness is up, DWP ripping people off, he's a demagogue.

This video of an award getting ripped up in his face is hilarious. You'll never see this on local news.
