I think I’d have better luck winning the Powerball than what he wants Democrats to be.

      thanks for the trench report - super grateful for it. will look at him a little more seriously because actual empathy that straddles class is a good start. if he can articulate that the class struggle is real, the average american has effectively lost and that he has concrete plans in concert with others to fix it… thats the first hole punch in a ticket to ride.

      Thanks for this. I’m a few thousand miles from Illinois, so my Pritzker awareness isn’t robust, but with what you’ve written and quoted here, I’m moving him to my list of good guy Democratic politicians.

      There are 9, now including Pritzker.

      Bo one becomes a billion naire without standing on the misery of others. He can fuck himself to until I see him standing in the streets with us not a podium with a microphone.
