Bad Mayor! Naughty Mayor! Now don’t get indicted again! - ThreadSky

Have a spine…I know, will of the people, etc. But the charges shouldn’t be dropped and if they weren’t, he be done.

I heard she can’t get rid of him because the legal process to do so can be dragged out for years, has never been done, and is almost pointless.
