Summary
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker urged Democrats to protest nationwide so “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace” during a New Hampshire speech.
His call for mass mobilization drew standing applause but ignited outrage from MAGA supporters. Elon Musk called the remarks “crazy,” while conservatives accused Pritzker of inciting violence and even treason.
Pritzker also criticized Democrats for political timidity, asserting “the reckoning is finally here.”
His fiery tone fueled speculation about a 2028 presidential bid as he seeks re-election in Illinois next year.
Do it J.B. I want him to do for this nation what he’s done for Illinois. I’m not a fan of billionaires in general, but Pritzker has been absolutely amazing for Illinois. I could not ask for a better candidate.
I always assumed he was doing a great job because all I’ve heard people in rural Illinois and Indiana do is bitch about how he’s ruining Illinois.
Yeah, that’s always a big flag, isn’t it?
Pritzker is basically Bernie Sanders, except he has the money to fund a fucking army in the case the real one doesn’t do it’s job. He’s not a fake billionaire like Trump
yup. did not vote for him in the first primary but after one term I voted for him with enthusiasm thereafter.
