Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson think theyβre talking tough when it comes to the once-and-future President Donald Trump.
But theyβre really talking fear.
They know it, as all those who play politics for a living know it.
The key to political survival in corrupt and broken Illinois is the ability to pick out the fearful weaklings in the herd, and stay away from them. Or, if youβre a wolf, then take them down and enjoy a good meal.
If you truly understand politics, youβd know that Pritzker and Johnson just ooze fear. Theyβre cowards and really canβt help themselves.
They bark and snarl like some frightened old drunk at the end of the bar, growling that theyβre itching for a political street fight while hoping friends hold them back.
βTo anyone who intends to come take away the freedom and opportunity and dignity of Illinoisans, I would remind you that a happy warrior is still a warrior,β Pritzker said. βYou come for my people, you come through me.β
What he didnβt say: Heβs measuring the White House toilet seats because he thinks his inherited billions can help make him president and perhaps, he can put a throne of gold in there.
βHis threat is not just towards new arrivals and undocumented families,β said Chicago Mayor Brandon βPanic Attacksβ Johnson. βHis threats are also against Black familiesβ¦weβre going to protect undocumented individuals. Weβre going to protect black folks, brown folks, Asian folks. The city of Chicago will be better, stronger and safer despite whoβs in the White House.β
What he didnβt say: Americaβs Worst Mayor, according to the Wall Street Journal, just keeps on losing.
It is apparent to anyone paying attention to the Illinois political clown car, that Johnson and Pritzker are the Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee of the Land of Lincoln.
A day or so ago, we discussed Trump, Johnson and Pritzker on the Chicago Way podcast with co-host WGNβs Jeff Calin and our guest, Illinois political expert Thom Serafin of Serafin & Associates.
βThe Wall Street Journal editorial said he (Johnson) was the worst mayor in the countryβ¦ The mayor is a real gentleman, but heβs getting advice from folks who I think donβt have his best welfare at heart.
βYou have to surround yourself with a good staff in office, and sometimes they take the same people they were with on campaign into the government offices, and itβs two lines of work: like hiring a welder to do electricianβs work.β
He could use a magician and perhaps a new puppeteer to work the Mayor Panic Attacks Meat Puppet.
But itβs clear to me that neither Pritzker nor Johnson is surrounded by capable union electricians or welders not even a good garbage man or union firefighter. And there are no capable sorcerers since Obama has burned them all up.
Whomever is left to attend the Illinois governor and Chicago mayor are too busy talking and burning down their political house.
Mark Glennon, founder of wirepoints.org, mocks Pritzker and reminds us that the ambitious Pritzker wants to be seen as a liberal superhero.
But thinking of Gov. Fat Boy in skin tight blue spandex, with a cape, like the Man of Steel instead of the Jiggling Flesh, is just too gruesome to contemplate.
Especially since Pritzker continues squashing what Illinoisans want, as Glennon writes,Β things like:
School choice, smaller budgets, voter ID, lower taxes, biological men out of womenβs sports, political indoctrination removed from classrooms and a balanced energy policy that includes fossil fuels and rejects the goal of 100% renewable energy.
βThey want violent criminals prosecuted,β writes Glennon. βThey opposed the SAFE-T Act and donβt like gender transformation for minors, But Pritzker and his allies have delivered the opposite of all that. Illinois is a moderate stateΒ where corrupted democracy has somehow delivered an autocratic oligarchy.β
And Paul Vallas, who was either βtoo whiteβ or βtoo sensibleβ to be elected mayor over Johnson, writes in the Chicago Contrarian that after Trumpβs victory, βWhat Chicago and Illinois Residents Wake Up Toβ
β*Illinois is experiencing the largest exodus of residents in the nation; Chicagoβs population has continued to shrink. Among those leaving in droves are Chicagoβs black residents β overwhelmingly middle-income families with children β the largest out-migration of any U.S. city in history.β
Now Pritzker is concentrating on making Illinois the mecca of sex change operationsβ to the predictable leftist media applauseβeven if parents, or the voters, donβt think that castrating minor children is something superheroes should never do.
And Johnsonβafter the Chicago City Council humiliated him with a 50-0 losing voteβtried to recover his idiotic pride by intimidating the family of slain Chicago Police officer Enrique Martinez into letting Johnson attend Martinezβ funeral.
Johnson finally backed down, but not after heaping more grief and stress on the slain officerβs family.
Why are Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson treating their constituents this way?
Because they learned nothing from Trumpβs election victory.
Because theyβre either too stupid or frightened to change course.
Yes, they are different men, but as in the Lewis Carroll tale, they are brothers joined at the hip.
One inherited billions of dollars and ended up on third base thinking he hit a triple. He never had to work a day in his life. And he hasnβt. Just look at him.
And yet still he ran a cheap toilet tax scheme and was found out. And if he ever dares run for president, I hope that will bite him in his fat ass.
And the other is a neo-Marxist fool, a race hustler and cheap chiseler who had the gall to spend $80,000 of Chicago taxpayer money on renovating a fancy office for his wife, just like some autocrat.
Would Elanor βSisβ Daleyβwho saved what is now the Chicago Cultural Center from the wrecking ball. ever demand a fancy office on the taxpayer dime from Mayor Richard J. Daley?
No.
Would the late Mayor Richard J. Daley consider for one instant a scheme to take tax dollars to satisfy his wifeβs ego?
No. She would never have allowed it. Never. She was no fool.
Johnson and Pritzker are politicians, and so they live in glass houses. And both are full of the arrogance of the kind of stupidity that feeds the coward.
And they donβt care what you think. If you pay taxes in Chicago and Illinois, they think youβre something between sheep and people: sheeple.
And they do know this: Theyβre big-city Democrats. Theyβre bosses. They have the power, and you donβt. Theyβre the mayor. Theyβre the governor.
And the rest of you?
Shut up and take it.
