JB Pritzker is no longer just the Governor of Illinois; he is also the first undeclared candidate for President in 2028. Pritzker will not be running as a Democrat, as the Democratic Party has ceased to exist. He will be the first presidential candidate to run as a member of the Anti-Trump Party. The Anti-Trump Party (ATP) has a straightforward platform. It is anti-borders, pro-illegal immigration, and soft on crime. With only a few planks in their platform, the messaging is straightforward and requires minimal follow-up questions. Even though Trump will not be on the 2028 ballot, the ATP will be running against the Donald for many election cycles to come. Trump has taken up permanent residence in the heads of all members of the ATP.

JB is maximizing the free air time he receives each day as he repeats his anti-Trump rant comparing Trump to evil dictators of the 20th century. It is such a disrespectful display, certainly not worthy of someone who aspires to lead our country. Not that Trump is not guilty, too. The name-calling and character assassinations are something we could do without. At least with Trump, we are seeing progress and accomplishments, unlike the entire Democrat side, which brings nothing to the table. Pritzker’s chances of winning the Presidency are slim to none. His refusal to admit to a significant crime problem in Chicago and to use the courts to block Trump from ending the violence is inexcusable and a blatant dereliction of the Governor’s primary function, which is to ensure the safety of his constituents.

We are also witnessing blatant disregard for accountability in Virginia’s races for Governor and Attorney General, marked by abhorrent behavior. The Democrat candidate for AG has had tweets surface where he is calling for his opponent and his children to be shot. These public comments should absolutely disqualify anyone from running for and holding public office. Yet, the Democratic candidate for Governor refuses to acknowledge the seriousness of the indiscretions, claiming it is up to the voters to decide.

In the cases of Comey, Letitia James, Jack Smith, and Adam Schiff, we are hearing screams from the Left that Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department for retribution. These people are not denying that they did what they are being indicted for; they argue that they should be shielded from legal action because bringing charges would make it political. No, how about you did the crime and need to pay for your sins against society? They are all on record saying that nobody is above the law. We should conduct thorough investigations into these individuals. If the evidence still points to their guilt, we should then hold them accountable under the full weight of the Constitution.

Most of these people have spent years trying to pull down Donald Trump, and you know if they retake the House, impeachment papers will be filed before they are sworn in. This behavior is who and what the Democrats are all about. It is not what is suitable for the people; it is what is good for expanding the power base and keeping these people in the Congress.
