No one out-pizzas The Hutt!

Aww…man…sorry, sorry, sorry. Couldn’t help it.

NP. I’ll let myself out.

Making JB look like a victim is just pathetic. His vitriol is ignored when slung toward Republicans and yet, Republicans are held to a different standard. He gets what he sows when spewing hateful comments. They both should apologize for acting like kindergarteners.

Bailey’s point is valid.

On the other hand, Democrats/socialists/communists are trying to transform the USA into a totalitarian society, “by any means necessary.” Their idol Saul Alinsky wrote “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

We must defeat the Democrats/socialists/communists. Don’t bring a squirt gun to a gun fight!

It’s taking the high road. And it give some indication how he might govern.
Let’s honor all people. Disagree freely with ideas, but honor all.

The weight jokes are lazy quips (we’ve all made a few), the hard part is keeping up with all the fiscal and cultural destruction Pritzker has caused.

Mark, I believe this a perfect example of what is called “parody”.
Look at the artwork. It’s so “cartoony” and “over the top”, it’s hardly “mean spirited” at all. If this is to be demonized, then we better cancel the annual “Al Smith Dinner” in NYC that Always features speeches where politicians “roast” each other. :-/

JB Pritzer can straight up call Republicans fascists, nazis and murders, but when a Republican jokingly calls a Republican fat, oh no, that’s too far.

Spineless GOP. They deserve to lose.
