"And Pritzker is not exactly Barack Obama, charisma-wise, either. But he knows where to find the right chords on the old pipe organ."
Ted joined Shaun Thompson to talk about about the Chicago Teachers Union’s absurd new contract demands, why so many Chicago teachers are chronically absent, and Brandon Johnson’s failed first year as mayor.

Esquire is amplifying the “problem is in the messaging” theme. Or Hopium 2.0. Either way, progressives keep showing they have no grasp of reality.
Are people supposed to pay for content like this? what is the point? Who is even the target market for fluff pieces that bootlick billionaires?
Remember when Esquire was a magazine for men.
Now it’s a blog for beta-cuck pajama boys
There are two comments:
“Thanks for recognizing our governor. He may not be Barack Obama, but he has governed quite well. I will be proud to vote for him again. And Illinois was pretty well in the dumps after Blago and Rauner finished with us. Plus, he knows where Goreville is! One of the prettiest places on earth!”
“i live in ill he is the best gov we have ever had do not take him away from us”

Spot on comment. I ended my Esquire subscription three or four years ago. They changed editors and the new editor was a timid, castrated, self loathing, apologist for being born male. It used to be a great magazine . For men. Now its a waste of paper pulp catering to the castrati of the millennial generation. Just like that generation: Good riddance. The world will little notice your existence and will be a better place when you are gone.
