"Tell me one neighborhood, I won't even ask for a city, that the Dems have turned around in these areas over the last fifty years"

"Tell me one neighborhood, I won't even ask for a city, that the Dems have turned around in these areas over the last fifty years"
I'm definitely not familiar enough with every city in America to answer that. But is that really a fair metric of efficacy? What does turned around mean? How many governments, Democrat or Republican, have been successful in doing this?
Asking about Republicans isn't just whataboutism. If you're asking what the Democrats have done, but the Republicans have been equally ineffective, aren't you just talking about the ineffectiveness of government in general? Which is a worthwhile conversation to be fair.
Turned around means safe, clean streets where kids get a quality education and there are job opportunities. Sadly I'm not aware of any where anything has improved.
I don't believe there are any large cities where Republicans hold the majority and if they did, who knows if it would make a difference. Though I think it would benefit citizens in these cities to vote for members of other parties so maybe more politicians would be working on the problems.
However you want to look at it, the Dems have failed miserably. So much so, I sometimes wonder if their failure for so long is intentional. Planned Parent Hood and liquor stores are about the only business's to be found. Poor educational systems. Bad policing policies
I mean fifty years. How long does it take to have some results? Anywhere?
