This Is Not About The City Of Chicago - Tr**p's Most Formidable Opponent Now Is....... [View all]

J.B. Pritzker.

In my mind - he is already out there campaigning for the Dem Nomination in 2028. He is standing up to Tr**p and doesn't appear to be afraid of Tr**p. Tr**p knows that J.B. has his number and he has been taking him on - and Tr**p doesn't like it.

So this whole National Guard thing and Chicago being the most dangerous city in the world - isn't what this is all about.

Tr**p is out trying to discredit J.B. any way and any chance he gets.

That's what this is all about. l
