This morning, our garbage excuse of a “President” tweeted a batshit lie about Illinois Governor JB Pritzker’s handling of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak affecting his state after the Governor appeared on CNN’s State Of The Union today to factually state that the federal government’s mismanagement has forced states into competing for necessary medical equipment to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
Thankfully, Pritzker responded to that tweet with some common sense, notably with this gem: “You wasted precious months when you could've taken action to protect Americans & Illinoisans.”
Trump’s classless tweet attacking Gov. Pritzker:
Pritzker fired back with this tweet:
Daniela Prizont-Cabo at NBC Chicago:
President Donald Trump took to Twitter Sunday morning lashing out at Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker after repeatedly calling out the federal government to do more amid the global coronavirus outbreak --and once again, Pritzker did not shy from responding.
“@JBPritzker, Governor of Illinois, and a very small group of certain other Governors, together with Fake News @CNN & Concast (MSDNC), shouldn’t be blaming the Federal Government for their own shortcomings,” Trump said on Twitter. “We are there to back you up should you fail, and always will be!”
J.B. Pritzker has repeatedly and publicly spoken about his disappointment with the lack of federal government’s quick response on the international crisis, specifically pointing out the scarce testing kits sent to states, including Illinois.
JB Pritzker’s showing leadership for the State of Illinois during this time of need, while Donald Trump is still being a class clown uninterested in solving problems. This is all the more reason to re-elect Pritzker in 2022 and to send Trump home in November of this year by telling him “Bye, Don” and “You’re Fired!”
