Statewide Lagging

With a billionaire governor who inherited every penny of his wealth:

  • Illinois’ real gross domestic product fell by 2.2% between January and March of 2025, according to latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis.

    The national GDP declined 0.5% in the same period. Illinois ranked 42nd for its real GDP growth rate in the first quarter of the year.

    The sharp drop is not isolated. It is part of a long-term pattern of stagnation.

    Since the first quarter of 2019, Illinois’ gross domestic product has only grown by 5.2% – fourth-slowest in the nation. The national economy grew by 15.1% during that time.

And he wants to run for president based on what exactly?

Not success, that's for sure.

Fred Flintstone wants to run for President so he can finish what Barry Soetoro started, the destruction of our country. She Devil Hillary was supposed to be the closer, but the white hats made sure dems couldn’t cheat her into office. If Prickster manages to get into the White House, they are going to have to reinstall the Taft bathtub. Thar she blows.

He’s not going to be president. The money people are going to try to rig it for Newsom but their lunatic base wants someone even worse. And Daddy Trump will have the DoJ watching them , lol. Hopefully they get Jasmine Ratchett and Zoey Zephyr in ‘28.

oh don't you worry, the liberal media already has its orders to start the fluff and make up more great stories about how great Illinois has been doing thanks to pwickster, disregarding the murder rate, the shooting rate, the drug overdose rate, etc....

Honestly democrats are just spouting about who can hate Trump more.
Certainly not a good platform, but I like it, definitely will assure another Republican win in 28.
Can someone please ask Raja, what exactly he is fighting Trump about??🤔

Wait just a minute, you bring in thousands of non-skilled migrants and put them on the dole then you make it harder for upper middle class and rich people to financially survive then they leave, who knew they would leave.

Governor lardass thinks he is a success at whatever he does. Thats the disconnect. Then we have an Illinois congress that refuses to tell him what a failure he is. Don't even get me started on the media coverage. Then we have the Illinois voter, that is so willing to re-elect even the most unsuccessful of politicians...Yeah, it's the tri-fecta of self-sustaining machine politics.
With a pass like that, I'm surprised that our taxes aren't even higher...

Make that a quad-fecta. You forgot to factor in the most important aspect of leftist machine politics, their “most extensive and inclusive vote fraud organization” the one FJB referred to. Remember that quote from Bad Touch Joe, you fu@#$ in the media? You let that slip of the mask pass without inquiry as to what he meant.
Waiting for the day the complicit media answers for their crimes next to the seditious and treasonous politicians.

Supreme Court will hear @JudicialWatch’s case over whether a federal candidate can challenge Illinois law that allows ballots received up to 14 days after Election Day to be counted.

Porksters comment about Jesse White being the "least offensive" of black candidates will come back to haunt his attempt to "squeeze" into the white house. (pun intended) They are going to have to apply some bacon lard to his waistline for him to get in...It is going to be an interesting primary. Not one of them represents an ice cube's chance in hell of winning. Newsome, AOC, or Crockett. They all represent the extreme far left and everyone knows it. They will try to look more centered as Newsome is doing. Like Hillary tried. But we all know what lipstick on a pig looks like thanks to the last election.

Now that would be the ticket to watch - Greasy Gavin and Supersized JB. Maybe they would remind people of 5 Guys hamburgers (greasy and large) and get elected due to the association.

His removing toilets from his palatial estate should be enough to ruin any chance of him running, but being a democrat and with a leftist media ready to cover any of their misdeeds, anything is possible.

He can't run on the Re-Form Platform. He's the incumbent, and just like Pappy O' Daniel, he has to claim it's HIS leadership.

10% of the $6 trillion federal budget should be used to ensure honest and accurate elections. 20% of the budget should be used to hunt down illegals and ship them out.
