Donald Trump just called JB Pritzker ‘a fat slob’ all because JB Pritzker wouldn’t grovel like Trump’s GOP minions
Apparently, self-awareness isn’t part of his skill set.
When Donald Trump opens his potty mouth, he goes all in. He is doing the same during a recent sighting, where he spoke ill of Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, with whom he has been in a political war since almost the beginning of his second term as president, over the deployment of troops in his state to conduct ICE raids. While Trump has repeatedly pushed for sending the National Guard to Illinois, citing rampant crime concerns, Pritzker has opposed him and accused him of lying about the state’s current condition.
When one gives a person like Donald Trump a stage and a microphone, one should expect to hear some of the most obnoxious and outrageous things known to humankind. Trump did not disappoint on that front during his recent appearance at the Annual Presidential Turkey Pardon, where he spoke at length about JB Pritzker and said things he admitted that he shouldn’t have said. While enlisting all the things his administration had achieved since he came to power, Donald Trump noted Illinois as an exception. He claimed that the Pritzker was refusing to cooperate with him in efforts to reduce crime rates, despite Chicagoans asking him to intervene (on today’s list of things that never happened). He continued elaborating on his criticism of Pritzker further and at one point referred to him as a “fat slob”, seconds after he admitted that he would “never talk about his weight.” Moments later, he exclaimed that he would also like to lose “a few pounds” in an effort to cover up his previous fatphobic jokes aimed at JB Pritzker.
Donald Trump’s comments about JB Pritzker have invited significant online criticism. One person on X (formerly Twitter), while discussing the incident, wrote:
“Man really does press conferences like a 5th-grade cafeteria roast session. And the wild part? He throws shade like he’s never walked past a reflective surface in his life.”
Another individual on the platform wrote:
“First, he says he doesn’t want to talk about his weight, then proceeds to talk about his weight in the most juvenile way,”
