You are dead on about the controversy. His wife sucked at her job for years and managed to get re-elected. If it wasn’t for her fraud charges I’m fairly confident she would still have the job. The voters in this country are low information/high salient. They only pay attention to big events where someone fucks up and then they’ll vote that person out. It’s sad but that’s the world we live in.

I've felt for a while that the city basically needs to be placed into receivership, which immediately forces the question of who should administer it. And apparently our entire system of government says it should be federal prosecutors, by the least efficient mechanism imaginable. So rolling that into their life satisfaction strategy should probably go in op's todo pile.
