The nation's LOL (Leading Obese Lady), who was born in the Motor City, appeared alongside Hock Ptui at Western International High School in the city. Quoth she, "I'm so proud to be from this city. You know they say if Kamala wins then the whole country will be like Detroit."
Her comments have since been blasted on social media after users pointed out that the city has been in a state of decay and decline for decades. Just over a decade ago, the city filed for federal bankruptcy protection after a years-long financial crisis.
One commenter wrote: "Regardless of Lizzo's strenuous efforts to spin it, all that will be ringing in people's subconscious is: 'Kamala will turn America into impoverished, run down, and unsafe, Detroit.'" [My emphasis. WW]
Another added: "If Kamala is elected the whole country will look like Detroit. A decimated car industry. A top ten city in crime statistics."
One other commented: "Lizzo just told us the entire country will go to hell just like Detroit if we vote for Kamala!"
After the clip was widely shared on X, another said: "That was a Trump endorsement if I've ever had one. LOL."
