Wow wow awesome congratulations my dear Mayor you will never last in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. God blessed your mummy 🙏🏽
I don't like these kinda statistics while I applaud the young man I feel like they using stories like this to trick us to think we have equality, this is a joke an 18 year old leading the a town?
God Lord Jesus Christ Bless You Your Mother
God Lord Jesus Christ You Youngest Mayor And your Mam From Philippines
I'm moving there
congrats to him, but here is the problem. he is 18! No 18 year old should be elected into a position like that. if he proves me wrong and ends up being a great mayor great but he will have challenges to face like crime, poverty, which in his town is higher than the national average. people that young are easily influenced so that's another potential problem. and since im saying this about a ABC news report im going to make it clear to you liberals out here. That has nothing to do with his race cause it goes for any 18 year old of any color.
Wow congratulations mr mayor
Gotta give the young man credit…Prayers for success to help society…
Congratulations sir
Great job young man, keep going up your taking flight ✈️
This is an inspiration.
Why do you have to add in Black,America is so divided and racist. A young Mayor is a young Mayor period,stop the divide.
Congratulation Mr. Jaylen Smith, Future President!
PRAISE GOD for You Sir. from Massachusetts 🙏🏽
damn that’s hella good😊
He shouldn't have let the cat out of the bucket yet. Congratulations to him though
Love this, history in the making. Keep striving for greatness young black king.
Hopefully bad people won't mess up his office behind his back, may God protect him from evil people and made those who trusted in him more love for him and guidance.
