Sweetie, this is DC. Every single person in the city hates Trump. No one is MAGA. The mayoral candidates still have a responsibility to come up with plans to do something about jobs. People need help and blaming Trump isn't going to put food on anyone's table.
So your request is that we undo the crap trump had since but only in a maga-ish way? Lol, ok
Wut? Do you have a functioning brain? What we're saying is a city where 20 percent of the children live in poverty is a city that should not be writing $50K checks to for-profit businesses.
But wait! What if someone opened a store in Georgetown selling artisanal donuts and it turns out that, at the moment, not enough people are buying $15 donuts to even cover their $12,000 per month rent? Surely the government can give them $50,000 through this tough patch? We can't let a store like that go out of business.
The moral thing to do would be a government subsidy of doughnuts. The feds could subsidize $7 and the District could kick in $3. Some non-profits could offer doughnut tokens for the disadvantaged. We can fix this if we work together!

There are no industries of value in DC other than government - that is kind of by design.
If George Washington chose New Jersey or Pennsylvania or something spots to put the nations capital, Georgetown would be an extremely tiny town - Baltimore is the economic hub of Maryland and points south until Norfolk due to the deep water port and rail system. DC is a swamp with no natural resources.

Classic DC. It's the federal government's responsibility to supply jobs for DC residents.

The problem is our current orange dictator has destroyed the local economy thanks to DOGE (all while pillaging citizens’ data, appointing drunkards and tv stars to leadership positions, and making himself and his billionaire buddies even wealthier).
And to the extent any jobs have been “gained” in this region, they’re mostly lower paying jobs that do not actually make up for the lost white collar jobs because no one in either party seems to want to reign in private equity, limit H1Bs, or regulate AI in order to salvage decent-paying knowledge jobs. Then add in a stupid war, inflation, spiking gas prices (which makes the cost of transporting food more expensive), and lack of leisure time due to strict RTO and people working multiple gig jobs, and many people just do not have the time nor money to go out to an expensive restaurant on any frequent basis.
Also the cost of everything like college, housing, etc. is through the roof. I’d rather add to my kids’ 529s than pay for a sitter to go eat a $200 dinner somewhere nice.
DC has the highest unemployment rate in the country and our government and the mayoral candidates have no plan to try to fix it, except blame Trump.
Well, it is Trump's fault.
It's Trump's fault the mayoral candidates have no plan to clean up this mess? Janeese and McDuffie are lucky to have such gullible constituents.
