Don't argue with me.
I got eyes.
Before you were born, we had a black mayor in 1973, over 50 years ago.
And Tom Bradley was mayor from 73 to 93.
He was mayor.
I mean, I was literally like in the fourth grade, maybe the third grade when he became mayor.
By the time he got out of there, I was like working on a construction site with a beer and a cigarette in each hand.
Like that's how long this guy.
But L.A.
Right.
And everyone liked Tom Bradley.
He was a Democrat.
He was competent.
He was a Democrat in the old school version of a Democrat, which is sensible and pragmatic.
And he ran the city and it was fine.
And nobody said nobody said a word about his color ever.
So that's.
That's number one with this stupid race hustle, which is insane.
Also, we got our first female black mayor and it didn't work out.
Her name is Karen Bass.
