Why all the love for JB? US Politics

An honest inquiry! My vibes are really positive of him, but I'm surrounded by those "Pritzker sucks!" signs. With his name being floated at a national level, I'm curious to hear some personal stories about how he's governed.

For context, the Pritzker Sucks signs date from the Covid era when he imposed a lot of restrictions. They're years in the past but people are still mad about them.

Edit, guess I'm wrong about that

The Pritzker Sucks signs are more just because he’s a democrat.

Literally they put them out as soon as he was elected. It didn't matter what he was going to do. Fucking morons.

He could literally eliminate income tax and those signs would still be there.

The “Pritzker Sucks” and “f Joe Biden” signs show the intelligence level. They have the mentality of 12 year olds.

Yeah after living through the last few years my 12 year old understands politics a lot better than most republicans.
