I agree. Bowser’s belated, paler me-tooism is kind of pathetic. Not only is she not a leader like Hogan, she doesn’t exactly have an A-team either. Hogan has a more experienced and competent set of agency heads, and they lead agencies at scale that can call on resources from across a state that encompasses a varied portfolio of cities, suburbs and rural areas.
Another reason why, even with stellar leadership (like a Tony Williams), DC could not really be a viable state any more than Baltimore City could. This crisis points out two lessons:
Washington DC desperately needs a better, more competent mayor.
The best long term solution, for a variety of reasons from congressional representation to better resources and a deeper potential political leadership pool, would be for DC to rejoin the state of Maryland.
