I don't think so. The only things San Francisco and Detroit have in common is that they are both cities and they have both been run by Democrats. Other than that, the reasons for their failures are different. San Francisco's problems are homelessness and crime. Detroit's problem is that large swaths of it are abandoned and decaying, and the city went bankrupt due to white flight and political corruption.

I think San Francisco is fixable. If the voters continue to rebel against extreme political progressivism, policy changes can make a huge difference. Prosecute crime vigorously, and stop the policies that attract the homeless and the drug addicts into the city. In the case of Detroit, I'm not sure it can be fixed so easily.
