These loses are worth it. Get rid of Madigan and no more lock downs!

Madigan is not driving the lockdowns, far from it.  In fact, when the legislature came back into session for a brief period in May, they blocked Pritzker's plan to punish businesses who violate the lockdown orders.  Local legislators are much closer to their constituents on this and unwilling to take any heat or difficult votes to shut businesses down.

I like Pritzker but he better hold back on any lockdowns or any more covid restrictions.

I wouldn’t hold your breath, he practically gets off on it.

Madigan needs to resign, otherwise we're risking someone like Bob Dold or Adam Kinzinger beating J.B Pritzker in 2022.

I highly doubt this happens, and even if it does, it is worth the extremely gerrymandered maps that Madigan will give us, a Governor Dold or Kinzinger would be powerless in the face of a Democratic legislature, while a new leader might not be willing to be as ruthless as Madigan.

You're an objectively bad person if you support Mike Madigan from a distance.

Are all of the Republicans who support Mitch McConnell from a distance, bad people then? You can't just say someone's bad because they like Democratic hacks and not apply the same standards to liking GOP hacks

Mitch McConnell is a national figure.  Madigan only affects residents of Illinois.  Democratic hacks IN ILLINOIS hate him, dude.  He’s a bad person, and your stunt of liking him is not only weird, it’s in bad taste.
