I know nothing about your Governor Pritzker, but he did GREAT in this interaction about COVID...

Has he always been this great, or is he late to the party or ? How is his record otherwise ? Just curious. Thanks.

Rauner's down in Florida, donating to DeSantis? I did not know that, but it's in character.

But a crooked one.

Of course Rauner is in Florida. He owns nursing homes there that have had fines for many violations. Before he was governor, he was allowed to borrow and invest pension money in nursing homes and a variety of other things.

He owns nine homes. He had one of most lengthy and contentious divorces in the state.

JB, on the other hand, is a major philanthropist. He has donated a lot of money to the holocaust museum in this state.

I was happy to vote for him in primary and general election Stay strong governor

He also brought to vote and promoted a fair tax change for the state but slick ads running against it made idiots vote no 😟

And yes, he has always been this good. We knew over a month ago that we would be wearing masks in school.

He's Great and Has politely facepalmed the naysayers, and those barking on the sidelines as He really is too busy for the R's BS.

He like Biden, though, with innate Civil Service Statesmanship and Strategic Intellect, had to start from behind advancing Good Polices and Disinfecting the systems that will sustain the people they serve. Of this crap from these former incompetent, self-dealing whoa is me GRIFTER whose belief is the "ends justify the means" which drove their tyrannical Modus Operandi and claw to the bottom mentality day one...Legionnaires Disease and Don't Pay Bills for IL for Rauner and The Big Lie/Liar and 600K lives lost to COVID-19 for TFG... and so so many innocent lives lost and adversely affected by them both.
