J.B. Pritzker has “not performed well” and is “always complaining.”
Pritkzer’s complaints Sunday got some results, with fresh insults from Trump the price.
Trump slammed Pritzker at the Sunday evening coronavirus pandemic briefing at the White House. That was hours after the Illinois governor in a morning CNN show ripped the president over the federal stockpile holding undistributed and urgently needed COVID-19 supplies.
At the briefing, Trump said 600 ventilators will be or have gone to Illinois. Earlier on Sunday, a White House spokesman sent the Chicago Sun-Times a list of medical supplies the White House has provided as of Saturday, April 4: The state of Illinois received 300 ventilators and the city of Chicago received 150 ventilators. Based on what Trump said Sunday, it appears he was actually sending 150 more.
“I hear him complaining all the time,” Trump said about Pritzker. “He’s always complaining.”
Trump said “we’re building a 2,500-bed hospital” in McCormick Place. Pritzker and Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Friday unveiled the first 500 beds in what will be a first-of a kind facility in the nation for moderately ill COVID-19 patients. That facility, built in the convention hall by the Army Corps of Engineers, could grow to 3,000 beds.
Trump was wrong when he said about McCormick Place, “And we’re helping to staff it and probably will end up staffing it because he’s not able to do what you’re supposed to be able to do as a governor. He has not performed well”
I love it,about time Trump told off JB the Hutt. I hope he tears Cuomo a new too. Both of these clowns have not done a frickin thing to help the situation
ReplyDeletePritzker flat out sucks! All he knows how to do is bitch about Trump, bitch about the Federal Government, and bitch at us, What kind of leadership is this?...just doom and fly, and no hope, We will get through this with absolutely no credit to him........P.S. watch the end of his daily news conference for the planted press questions and rehearsed answers, it’s so obvious, and pathetic , what a slob 🐖
ReplyDeleteHe really is such a whiner. You were elected governor now govern. Or are you positioning yourself to run for president when they deem Biden unfit to be president. Frankly, I think you are a disgrace.
ReplyDeleteJaBBa thinks dissing the President is going to earn him some credibility with the national dems. He's been a Hillary ass-kisser for the last decade, when he wasn't being an innovative "incubator" and feeding all those pre-schoolers he talked about in his commercials for a year and a half before the election. He dissed Trump on the Blago commutation but when it was pointed out he was on tape looking for Blagojevich to appoint him State Treasurer, he demurred saying he wasn't the same man he was 10 years ago. He hasn't done a damn thing unless you count raising the cost of license plates to $176 from $110. He's annoying, he's fat. His girth distorts the horizontal on my flat screen the 1084 pic resolution and the sides of the tv seem to burst every time he's on. I'd like to see Trump bitch slap him. Let me sum it up this way. Since he's been in office, I defy anyone to point to anything that's made their lives better or Illinois a state to move into. Again, Rauner had it right when he said Pritzker never had a legitimate job in his life, including this one that he bought.

ReplyDeleteLook, Blame the local Dems and their ilk for supporting clowns like Pritzker. Look who 19 supports in the general Assembly County commissioner, etc. They support same sex marriage,sanctuary cities(supported Chuy), abortion just so they can run to their summer homes in Long beach and sit around and pretend they give a sh__.
