David Axelrod reminds Emanuel that he’s actually from the suburbs
Political strategist David Axelrod has been a close friend of Mayor Rahm Emanuel for so long that maybe he can get away with saying things to Emanuel that others cannot. Appearing on Emanuel’s podcast, Chicago Stories, Axelrod, a native of New York City, reminded the mayor that he’s not actually from Chicago either, but from the North Shore. “Hey, that’s getting close, buddy,” the mayor told Axelrod.
