Lori Lightfoot lit the fire. This guy is going to pour gasoline on it. Chicago will become the next Baltimore. There is no turning back at this point.
If he is able to get all of the new taxes and tax hikes on white neighborhoods that he wants, then I predict that within the next 5 years most all wealthy and a large portion of the white population who have the means will leave the city (or the state entirely). Businesses will also most certainly move to the suburbs and outside of Cook County (or the state entirely) due to employee safety concerns.
What is left will be a charred husk of a once-great city populated with hood rats and is far too dangerous to visit. This will kill tourism and entertainment (which Chicago was known for). The downtown area will also suffer incredible losses as companies continue to close physical offices or flee the city due to employee safety issues.

Chicago is done.
