Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker delivered a fiery speech at a New Hampshire Democratic dinner, urging Democrats to engage in mass protests and disruption to counter Republicans, stating they 'cannot know a moment of peace'.
This call to action prompted a significant backlash from MAGA figures, notably Elon Musk, who labeled Pritzker's remarks as 'crazy'. Other prominent conservatives, including Benny Johnson and Douglass Mackey, also criticized Pritzker, accusing him of inciting violence and even calling for civil war.
Pritzker's speech wasn't solely aimed at the Republican party; he also criticized some fellow Democrats for their perceived passivity and timidity in confronting political challenges.
Pritzker's presence in New Hampshire, alongside his strong rhetoric, hints at his potential presidential ambitions in 2028. However, before any presidential run, he must secure a third term as Illinois governor.
