Former San Andreas Governor Ronald Clump has found a new path after leaving office. Following an unsuccessful bid for mayor of the City of Los Santos, Clump has decided to pursue a career in law enforcement. During this year’s campaign, he alleged election theft and voter interference after failing to secure enough votes.
Los Santos has a history of leaning left politically, making Clump's repeated losses unsurprising. "The citizens have made it clear they could not vote for a Republican," Clump said in an interview about his latest campaign loss.
After conceding defeat, Clump applied to become a police officer recruit with the Los Santos Police Department. "If I can't be mayor, I will clean this city up from the inside out," he posted on social media, later changing his slogan to "Make the LSPD Great Again."
Following the social media post, many residents began urging the LSPD not to hire Clump. "I truly believe he's going to use his power to advance his agenda," said a local Jamestown resident. Community members across Los Santos don't see Clump as a fit for a position of power.
“We need officers who truly represent our community, not someone who failed to get a job sitting behind a desk and signing documents with a questionable past,” said Davis community activist Ron Myers.
The LSPD has declined to comment on the potential hiring of the failed politician. However, in the past, the department has emphasized its commitment to following the law, regardless of political affiliation.
Clump was seen participating in a small protest on Wednesday in Mirror Park which appeared to be aimed at normalizing sexual acts in exchange for monetary compensation at local massage parlors, which is alarming to see given the city's struggle to combat sex trafficking.
This story emerges amid growing concerns about the struggle to combat crime throughout the state.
