She will run and win. She has no competition and has not even announced that she is running. There is no one who can beat her.

Which again begs the question, over Bowser and if any candidate worth supporting will step up?



This is hilarious. This is why a mediocrity like Bowser keeps lapping the field. So many of you would rather have self-destructive performative resistance over someone smart enough to keep her head down.

Yep. Self-destructive performative resistance is a good way to describe it. Congress can do so, so, much worse to the District.

Bowser did get the stadium and pushed it through the council. Whether you believe that's good or bad, it is a major accomplishment for a D mayor and a R Congress. I have no idea what was said when she met Trump earlier in the year, but Trump mostly kept out of it which is unusual for him.

I’m not sure why you would think he would want to get in the way of the DC government giving away billions in public resources to very wealthy people, but OK.

I’m not sure that Bowser ever really cared about DC’s residents, but she’s long since given up all pretense. All she is about now is feathering the nest she would enjoy once she moves on in a little over a year’s time.

Trump only cares about certain wealthy people, and none of those appear to be involved. As for caring about DC, the deal looks good on paper. I doubt it will turn out that way, but you never know. Leonsis ate her lunch with the arena deal. People seemed to think that was a win, because it keeps Chinatown alive. However, the District now owns the depreciating arena and paid for half the renovations. That wasn't a win IMHO, but some seemed excited about it.

It seems that no one wants to be mayor of DC these days.

She is too new to DC politics. I could see her as a shoe in in the future.

Charles Allen cannot seriously think he can win a citywide race, can he? I know he’s not particularly bright but he can’t be that stupid.

Yep, I agree!

What exactly do you want Bowser — or anyone— to do to “stand up”? I’ll assume that you’re aware of the direct power that the president and Congress has with regard to DC. Perhaps you have some realistic suggestions that could be implemented?

Bingo.

If it’s Charles Allen, I throw my full support to inanimate carbon rod.

Why isn’t Henderson exploring? She’s at large.
