Chicagoan here: Rahm sucks and always has. I remember during one of the many CPS teacher strikes, he spoke at the ballet opening performance and made a rude remark about teachers. I have never seen anyone booed at the ballet before, but man, Rahm sure fucking was. How is he ambassador to ANYWHERE
Lol I was sitting at a patio bar once when his car drove by and he waved out the window, everybody there immediately flipped him off and jeered at him. Imagine just getting hate from the public everywhere you go
The whole point of his existence is antagonism, so yeah, how did this happen? I get that some people likely owed him some favors, but ambassador?
Honesty I admire Biden's instinct to, after unfortunately still hiring him, locking him away about as far as possible.
Rahm sucks but he's done one good thing as ambassador and that's advocate for LGBTQ rights in Japan.
My wife lived in Chicago for over a decade and one of the cardinal rules in our house is "Rahm Emanuel sucks" lol
he privatized so much shit in secret out from under us he doesn't deserve an ambassadorship he should be in prison for embezzlement
do badwill ambassadors exist?
Sometimes “ambassador” is a polite word for “exile”
Other Chicago area person here. I read that he (until now!) was actually a very good Japanese ambassador because he fi a cultural stereotype (angry American idiot) that the Japanese love.
