      I don’t love the fact that he’s a billionaire. I do respect the fact that he seems to be a competent governor who actually tries to do right by the people of Illinois. He made a lot of smart moves during the early stages of the pandemic and he actually managed to balance the state budget; which for Illinois is not a small feat.

      I’m honestly surprised Pritzker hasn’t had a higher profile within the Democratic party.

        Not just a billionaire; Pritzker is America’s richest politican.

      I seriously thought it was Oliver Platt. I didn’t know the actor’s name before looking it up just now.
