EXCERPT:
REPORTER: "Mayor Lightfoot, every time you have a press conference you say crime is down, the economy is booming — " LIGHTFOOT: "Well, that’s not — that’s not true, but get your question, sir." REPORTER: "Across the street, we had a police officer on duty, the victim of a hit-and-run. We have Michigan Avenue, the Magnificent Mile is now referred to as 'the Mile of Fear.' The water tower place has thrown the keys back to the lender they say they don’t want to be in Chicago anymore. Real Chicagoans are asking me how could you possibly even consider running for re-election as mayor of the city of Chicago after all the harm you’ve caused?" LIGHTFOOT: "Well, I disagree with you fundamentally and I don’t think I need to address and dignify your comments one second further. Next question?"
