He is appealing that decision, so it will still be some time before he is actually removed from office, if at all.

I think he would be wise not to appeal, don't let the voters all pissed off in carrying on the nonsense at city hall, run again and win or lose on your merits and puts this issue(which he was clearly guilty of) behind him.

He may or may not be a good money manager (running a city is not the same as running a business but the jury is still out on that ... but one thing's for sure he's a lousy politician and a lousy leader.

Whatever good ideas he may have he loses because he insists on bullying those who need convincing and he denigrates and ridicules anyone who has an honest disagreement with him.

The judge noted that he had a sense of entitlement, and that his approach was dismissive and confrontational ... Ford may be excellent as a s**t-disturber, but no matter how good your convictions might be if you can only get along with your syncophants then your career as a leader will be short.
