What wrong is there to admit to? He was gone for 36 hours and missed a total of nothing. There was one unplanned speaking request that Gondek had to move personal plans around for because she chose to take it, and still managed to blow off most of the day while complaining to the media.
I get if there were meetings or debates or some reason he actually had to be there. But there weren’t. He’s the Mayor and a member of city council, not their dad. If we’ve elected City Council members that can’t go a day without knowing where the Mayor is then maybe they aren’t fit for the job.
Y’all remember when DCU blew off a bunch of debates and votes to go on a cruise, including planning to miss the Budget debates? Remember when other councillors said they didn’t know where she was? That’s probably the level of issue where admitting to being wrong was in order. Not being gone for a day and a half and missing zero work.
