Hey Pritzker...check out the meaning of "stiff upper lip"



Please keep a stiff upper lip when discussing the current health crisis, your meltdowns and constant criticism of Trump is helping nobody. The people of Illinois are expecting you to lead not bellyache.

Now get off your ass and be the leader you can be. 

A person who is said to have a stiff upper lip displays fortitude and stoicism in the face of adversity, or exercises great self-restraint in the expression of emotion. The phrase is most commonly heard as part of the idiom "keep a stiff upper lip", and has traditionally been used to describe an attribute of British people in remaining resolute and unemotional when faced with adversity. A sign of weakness is trembling of the upper lip, hence the saying keep a stiff upper lip. When a person's upper lip begins to tremble, it is one of the first signs that the person is scared or shaken by experiencing deep emotion.

  1. All of you out there who punched the ballot for JB still happy? Or how about for Mayor Larry too. They are both pathetic. Trump has been garnering praise from Dem & GOP polls for his handling,even from NY & Cali.Oh, but not here in Illinois. Our pols are still more concerned the well-being of criminal and illegals than they are for us

    Amen, we saw that Pritzker can't handle heat when asked about Trumps pardoning of Blajjevich. After he said words to the effect that Blago should sit for the entire sentence, he distanced himself from his appearance on taped conversations with him leveraging for the state treasurer's post. He claimed he's a different person from what he was 10 years ago. Outside of being wider, how is he different? New toilets in his next door mansion on the gold coast? You wouldn't want to catch a beef with this hulking mass of lard. As for Lori Lemur, we saw her vitriol when the FOP rep showed up at the City Council when a hot mic caught her referring to him as a clown, or the put down of a citizen who showed up for a public hearing in the council. She's ill tempered. Neither impresses with creativity, innovation or equal treatment under the law. Pritzker is like a puppy whenever HRC comes calling. He's just a wannabe, without anything but money to buy his way in. Illinois has never been perfect, corruption exist in every corner of the state but the current crop running things haven't done anything but point fingers. Thats not what they were elected for. And finger pointing isn't gonna get them re-elected. Who could endorse the Shrimp and the Blimp?

    Gov. Jaba the Hut is nothing more than Madigan's Stooge. Jaba and Mayor Leftfoot are in way over their heads. Trying times brings out the Leaders or it brings out the political hacks. Jaba and Leftfoot are definitely not leaders. Jaba may be a $$$ billionaire but he isn't very sharp. As for Leftfoot she's Richie Daley's biatch, not very bright.

    To useless fools who will bash the president at every chance they get and then expect the president to somehow respond to their request. The only thing Illinois is going to get is more federal indictments and hopefully tubby is on their radar.

    Oligarchs like him do not care.They have hardened shelters with 20 years food and water supplies. They basically have underground homes.

      I don't think there's a shelter big enough to hold 20 years worth of food for JB. Unless of course he just has slow metabolism.

  8. Pritzker was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and hasn't stopped. He has no idea what middle class people want or need. One term governor. He is an embarassment
