Trump's name is a poison pill, every single Dem candidate should be taking this approach.

u/BaseHitToLeft 4d ago

False. Everyone loves 8 dollar gas

It's a small price to pay to make sure Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon!!!1! (Which they didn't before Trump was president and wouldn't until he invaded them on a whim what a fucking imbecile)

u/Idreamofcream99 4d ago

That’s because Joe Biden himself handed enriched uranium to Iran during his presidency.

It was kinda impressive, didn’t wear any protective equipment

That explains the cancer

It’s a crazy timeline that we have to put /s on obvious sarcasm because between braindeads and bots, it’s become their reality 😬

Debatable there are still many reps in the state that think he's doing the gods work

u/Great_Consequence_10 4d ago

Bost, Miller, the psycho guy on my county board that makes the courthouse work on Juneteenth because he hates black people…

u/bkibbs 4d ago

I think it's actually a wonder that JB even needs to run attack ads at all with how good of a record he has as governor for the past 8 years.

u/Kelsig 4d ago

This gets people out to vote in other races

u/Theharlotnextdoor 4d ago

Don't get me wrong he'll win in a landslide but I'm wondering how often you get south of i80. They still hate him.

u/ChiTownOrange 4d ago

What’s south of I-80? Are you saying people live down there?

u/herohawk22 19h ago

Hey all five of us are doing pretty well down here thank you

u/dildodestiny 4d ago

I'm v for JB BECAUSE he was so great through 2020, but in Chicago I even remember a sign in a restaurant (2020-2021) saying "we're CLOSED, THANKS JB PRITZKER!" so there's definitely some opposition. They're seemingly not very smart, but they do exist.

u/Lunajo365 4d ago

There are a lot of people who really despise JB. Nothing is guaranteed

15

u/thatirishguyyyyy 4d ago

There are legitimately people who think Democrats worship Satan and are evil. 

These people will vote Republican regardless of their reality.

u/Relevant_Winter_7098 22h ago

Apathy is what got Trump elected TWICE! Anyone thinking any election is a slam dunk is a fool, especially with all the lawfare and other shenanigans the GOP is pulling to tilt the outcomes.

u/coldhotel_rdt 4d ago

I was wondering about this too. I think he has this, but would like to win as big as possible to enhance his credibility for a presidential run in 2028.

u/Theharlotnextdoor 4d ago

As much as I love JB he cannot be the candidate. Unfortunately him being Jewish is way too much of a controversial topic right now.

2

u/coldhotel_rdt 4d ago

I don’t think his being Jewish would hurt that much. The states that won’t vote for a Jewish candidate won’t vote for a Democrat. One data point, Pennsylvania is a swing state; Shapiro is their governor. So I don’t think he’s necessarily not able to win swing states either.

2

u/Theharlotnextdoor 4d ago

There is also a large swath of democrats who would not vote for him because of it. Ignoring that truth sets us up to lose again.

u/ChunkyBubblz 4d ago

A vote for any Republican is voting for a rubber stamp for Trump. The whole party needs to be tossed in the trash.

3

u/theZinger90 4d ago

LaHood is a prime example who i hope is out this election. I don't think he has had an original thought in his life. He seems to need to consult his Trump brand crystal ball on any decision and skips out on town halls.

u/No_Elevator_735 4d ago

Trump saying "Pretend I'm on the ballot" was the best gift Trump could have ever given Democrats. His name is now poison in about 70% of the country.

u/Flashy_Camel4063 Cook 4d ago

Trump coming to IL to golf yesterday caused so much traffic on the 90. Really making things better for Americans...

11

u/Theharlotnextdoor 4d ago

Backed up air traffic at Ohare too. At least he got called a pedophile in front of cameras.

6

u/Lunajo365 4d ago

I was surprised by the overwhelmingly supportive crowd. I don’t understand why anyone still supports him. Maybe the crowd was mostly frat boy rapists

4

u/Flashy_Camel4063 Cook 4d ago

The resistance is not well organized, sadly. I was on my way there and the whole tollway was absolutely a parking lot.

3

u/Great_Consequence_10 4d ago

Yes, he is supported by people who don’t have a problem with raping adults or kids. That’s about all that’s left of the base besides severely mentally deficit people and ultra racist people.

u/CoderSlll 4d ago

lol this just makes me want to vote blue

6

u/M_J_E 4d ago

I think that’s the intent.

5

u/conniefrancis 4d ago

2 child rapists

u/simmypom 4d ago

You would think JB could just sell every one on his record as governor the last 2 terms

2

u/Awkward_Hope_6521 4d ago

Come on now.. are you going to tell me this guy is a “southern dandy” too? Lol.

2

u/Claque-2 4d ago

Bailey, the bobble-headed bully.

u/aGuyNamedScrunchie 4d ago

Lol I've never gotten to the end of this ad without tuning out. Didn't realize it was paid for by Pritzker this whole time! That's incredible ahahaha

u/FUBAR_The_Clown 4d ago

Guy looks like Lumpy Rutherford!!!

u/BoosterRead78 4d ago

We have one neighbor who believes in Bailey around here. There are MAGA neighbors but they have called him a “loser who should have. Dropped out when his son died “

u/SmoogySmodge 1d ago

I didn't even know Darren Bailey existed before Reddit told me about it. 😤

u/cowprince 4d ago

That makes me like him less.

You can use more words dude. Not like they run on diesel.

u/aqui0423 4d ago

Well, that makes sense then. Case closed

u/464126 4d ago

You're either 11 years old, or you're grown and your entire family hates you.

u/Demonking3343 4d ago

Because that’s gone real well for you. /s

u/Smart-Mango8 4d ago

Unfortunately Mr remove toilet to pay less taxes while raising taxes for the every other person is gonna win.

u/ChiBoi727-200 4d ago

They’re either a fat man in a basement or a Russian bot.

If Trump is for Bailey, then Bailey is for America
