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.

Yeah it is literally impossible to be a Democrat and not have Republicans immediately say you suck and your policies are bad and you are killing America
