Illinois governor doubles down on comparing current moment to Nazi Germany rise during podcast appearance
Gov. JB Pritzker, D-Ill., said during a podcast on Tuesday that the current political "moment" was "slightly worse" than the COVID pandemic, despite the many deaths COVID caused.
"I've Had It" host Jennifer Welch asked Pritzker how he was doing, and the governor said that while every day was a blessing, he's often asked about whether the current Trump administration was comparable the situation Americans were in during the COVID-19 pandemic.
"It’s been challenging," he said. "I've been asked, is this like COVID, you know, the moment that we're in. Is it like every day, the challenges that we face? And the answer is, I think it's maybe slightly worse than COVID, even though obviously people were dying in the United States in droves because of what Donald Trump was doing with regard to COVID. But it's a really challenging moment."

Do you see any Republicans rooting for the president?
Hey Prixster! When American’s want any crap out of your fat ass, we’ll unscrew your head and dip it out. By the way, have you appointed a NG Sergeant Minor to fill the Tampon machines in the Illinois little boys rooms yet? You know, a liberal Tampon czar.
Well J.B., you slovenly pig. You better hurry and send your wife and daughter down to Florida like you did during Covid, so they would’ve be subject to the same ridiculous shutdown rules your fatass imposed on us mere mortals.
Why doesn’t Fox News fact-check this lard ass on his comments? Many more Covid deaths under Biden than Trump.
I hope this obese, dumber-than-a-box-of-rocks nepo baby does run for president. JDV would mop up the floor with him in a debate.
Died because of Coup-19. If you treated it with Chicken noodle soup nobody would have died.
Yep!
Just like Tiny Timmy Tampon, the Prixster was kicked out of the house by his family.
Who died and made Jabba Pritzker God?!
SHAME on PRIZKER.
SEVERAL of my friends are no longer here (young and old) due to Prizker, Fauci, and their protocol.
During the hot months in Florida he sent them to their home in Wisconsin, to avoid the ridiculous rules.
Right. If it was a Nazi regime Pritzker and most people on Reddit would be in concentration camps.
If I’m not mistaken, the ones who died in droves were in blue states. The red states acted with common sense and did not have that many deaths.
Yes. Lots of them.
But don’t forget more ‘droves’ died of Covid during Brandon’s Presidency than Trump’s. And I’m sure it was just a coincidence that CNN dropped is Covid Death Counter Chyron at the stroke of noon on January 20, 2021.
the fat man speaks
I’m embarrassed to have this disgusting pig as our governor.
If Pritzker, a Jew, really believed that the Nazis are in control, he’d be fleeing to Israel rather than running his mouth.
Trump was president during the Covid pandemic. He helped it really get going.
During Covid, a certain FAT RAT Governor violated his own Covid rules by dining out in public while normal Americans weren’t allowed to.
