Yes governor, put him in time out.

He’s just another Dem Tool we voted for in Illinois. Voters here never learn. Taxes way up & most people are planning retirement out of state. Younger families moving to Texas.

valerileist Unfortunately Trump Rallies, Lies, Tweets, Watches TV, Golfs, who Governs Donny is just a waste of air .

A train full of us army tanks and trucks (100+) was heading for Montreal Canada yesterday... they are not telling us everything

👍🏻

illinois governor , He sounded as the one with the tantrum 😂😂😂😂

Ouchy!

Pritzker should spend more time on twitter and less time putting people out of work!

He is busy writing to his friend in North Korea offering to help the communist. He needs to focus on Americans!

Trump feeds off Twitter, so unfollow him to lower his numbers. UnfollowTrump

I don’t vote for Pritzker, but I agree with him here. Trump should stop tweeting, stop saying there’s no problem with tests and that they’re perfect, and get to fucking work distributing resources to the country he leads.

Thank goodness someone is willing to tell the oaf to shut his mouth.

Does a governor of a state actually think Trump writes his own tweets?

Ohio is next

Government response updates: Trump invokes Defense Production Act, closes southern border citing 'viral spread'Asked about their message to Americans who might feel scared amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Pres. Trump and Vice Pres. Mike Pence had very different responses for NBC's Peter Alexander. The reporter wanted panic and chaos to fit his narrative. Trump smacked him down. Fake news is the enemy of the people. Informing people is different from scaring people into chaos! Attached is my own spreadsheet and I'm scared for our country. Crashing through this is a bad idea. Wow. If realDonaldTrump weren’t such a ego-driven narcissist, he’d be really ashamed of himself right now.
