Report Inappropriate Comments

You know, Thecaptain, I find myself wondering how the fake "mayor" ever thought he would succeed in whatever it is he's trying to do. I don't mean that facetiously; I honestly wonder what process in his brain resulted in him believing that he would win an election with proven tax delinquencies and false statements -- and then, after losing so decisively, concluding that pushing MORE falsehoods and having MORE of his unethical behavior exposed [has he actually answered for paying campaign office rent to the same person who bought his home at tax sale?] would actually somehow help his cause.

Or, take the topic of this article: The teacher contract. It's clear from his past comments that he really believed attacking the school committee, ignoring the more than two dozen meetings held on the contract, and insisting that he would have done a better job at getting the parties to sign a new contract would legitimately improve his image or standing in the city.

Honestly, there's no way to view this behavior charitably, because the apparent presumptions behind it are so bad: He either believes that so many other people in Warwick are upset about how the city is run that they're going to elect a complete nobody who lacks any concept of governance, or that voters are so stupid that they'll believe whatever he says despite clear evidence proving him a liar, or that repeatedly posting debunked statements on a website equates to actual practical ideas for running the city.

What's your read on all this? I'm genuinely curious.
