The disgusting saga of Chicago Democrat Alderwoman Maria Hadden just got even worse. After sparking nationwide fury for essentially blaming murdered college freshman Sheridan Gorman for her own death at the hands of an illegal immigrant, Hadden now has the audacity to claim that SHE is the real victim in this horrific story.
Let's recap this sickening timeline: 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman was walking on a Chicago beach with friends when illegal migrant Jose Medina-Medina approached her and shot her in the head, execution-style. Instead of condemning this savage act or questioning how this criminal alien was roaming free in her sanctuary city, Hadden's first instinct was to make excuses for the killer.
This radical Democrat politician actually suggested that the innocent college girl somehow "startled" her murderer, as if a young woman's mere presence justified being gunned down in cold blood. The victim-blaming was so outrageous that even liberals were forced to distance themselves from Hadden's vile comments.
"The most revolting aspect of this terrible story was watching a supposed public servant twist herself into pretzels to avoid admitting that their pro-criminal policies got an innocent girl killed," said one local parent.
But rather than apologize for her disgusting rhetoric or show any remorse for the Gorman family's unimaginable loss, Hadden is now playing the victim card. She's whining about the backlash to her own heartless comments, apparently believing that criticism of her victim-blaming constitutes some sort of persecution.
This is the modern Democrat Party in a nutshell, folks. They'll bend over backwards to defend illegal criminals while smearing their innocent victims, then cry about being "attacked" when decent Americans call out their moral bankruptcy.
Under President Trump's renewed leadership, we're finally seeing real action on the border crisis and sanctuary city madness that enabled tragedies like Sheridan's murder. Meanwhile, politicians like Hadden continue to prioritize criminal aliens over the American citizens they swore to protect.
How long will Chicago voters tolerate having their daughters' safety sacrificed on the altar of woke virtue signaling? Maria Hadden's disgraceful response to this murder tells you everything you need to know about her priorities.
