IL is getting close to a ‘economic hockey stick’ moment. With PDJT there will be no further Red State bailout of the Marxists in IL. Permanent economic destruction is occurring IL.

Billionaires financing wards of the state. Isn’t that just another way of saying slavery? If you are not a billionaire, guess who you are? For the democrats out there, the word is slave.

Everything is fine, fine, fine to those that voted for JB last time around.
