Conman: "Nah, this data center's not for you. It's more of a Shelbyville idea."

Mayor: "Just a minute! We're twice as smart as the people of Shelbyville! Just tell us your idea and we'll vote for it!"

    "I’ve seen a lot of these all over town, but I only see 
    them in crapty houses," before adding, "most of them are rentals."

    Someone chimes in to add something that a mayor shouldn’t have
    to be told about their constituents: "it doesn’t matter whether
    they’re rentals, they’re still human beings."

    a spokesperson for the mayor’s office released a statement saying that,
    "The mayor regrets that his choice of words may have caused offense".
Recapping: The mayor regrets that voters were offended by his expressed disdain toward renters and working class residents.

The mayor did not express any regret over his unfortunate opinions, however.
