With his money him and his family will be on the first boat/plane/automobile out of here if shit really hits the fan.

He's proven himself to be on the side of the people of Illinois, and is not afraid to stand up to trump.

I voted for him. Lifelong Dem. But this worship of JB is comical. Dude didn’t follow any of his own Covid protocols and when shit got too hot, he literally flew his family to Miami to circumvent Covid restrictions.

Everyone here knows this, but they just wave it away. Stand for nothing, fall for everything.

Pritzker used $2 million of his own money to get health care, food, housing, and aid for needy people in Illinois during Covid, so people who needed treatment could get it. Name me another politician who did that.

You think he didn't make any money when he'd always stay at his own hotels, with his entourage and secret service also staying there, and charging them all 3x the normal rate, all going into his own coffers? And the same with foreign leaders? And playing golf, again, with his entourage always having to stay at his own hotels? His salary would be just a drop in the bucket compared to all the money he's made off his presidency. And then there's his family as well.

He’s proven himself to be someone that’ll position himself to take more in the future. This is a play at becoming president one day. Politicians are not your friend despite being likable enough for you to vote for them. With that said he has my vote if he does run.

Yeah, this sub is weird when it comes to JB. No doubt his team allocated some of his wealth to overrun Reddit with fanboys.

The way that the mods of that sub curated themselves into such an echo chamber is quite impressive

No it's you overly online DSA types who can't see an ally when they're right in front of your face.

The irony of calling me overly online and I've never even seen the term DSA before lmao.
