Not sure about the other stuff but they are bad. While I won't be voting for Johnson, it's important to at least be accurate.

Agree, but from my perspective, the fact he went out the gate with that then had to start walking it back is even more evidence he shouldn't be at the helm. He has no good optics for what the city needs, instead he's looking at everything through the lenses of equity and social justice.
His tactics shift from one debate to another (based on the few i've seen). In the first forum I watched, he basically tried to paint Vallas as racist. He also tried to suggest that he knows that cops go through because he saw things first hand as a teacher..... Which makes no sense.
He has since backed off those tactics, while shifting to new ones - Like suggesting Vallas can't manage a budget, etc, etc. Vallas, for his part, has maintained consistency throughout these debates.
