Seriously, Miami. You’d be nuts not to want the dude who is responsible for the classic “when I dip, you dip, we dip” club anthem as your mayor.

All very reasonable ambitions. But his ingenious idea for raising much-needed funds for the county? A stripper tax. “You’re opening up strip clubs everywhere, which I don’t have a problem with. So tax the strippers,” he says. Uncle Luke 4 Mayor. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
