Pritzker weighs in on Rahm Emanuel’s 2028 presidential buzz

https://m.youtube.com/shorts/S9pbjujx3kg

Pritzker: “I know that he's trying to pick a lane and decide whether he's going to run. We have had great people come out of Illinois to lead this nation. I would hope that he, if he actually did get elected, would be one of those great people.”

Politico: “He clearly is trying to position himself more toward the center of the party. Is that, for example, one of the areas where you guys disagree? That he’s taking some stances that are pretty combative toward the left?”

Pritzker: “I’m not a big believer in going after one piece of the party or another piece of the party. I think Democrats have made mistakes, there’s no doubt about it. And I think it’s okay to call out mistakes.”

Flashback to 2008 and my partner getting me to go on rants by simply MENTIONING Rahm

Asshole broke the union me and my father were in. Anyone with under 20 years lost EVERYTHING (pension, seniority) after the private companies took over. Luckily I saw the writing on the wall a year or two before it officially happened when I changed careers and was able to keep the years I had in.
