The Onion Runs a J.B. Pritzker Campaign Ad

J.B. Pritzker just put out this campaign ad:

.

Talk about false advertising:

.

• Right off the bat he talks about keeping one’s word. This from the guy who promised he’d never sign gerrymandered election maps when he was running for the job.
• At the 16-second mark he talks about Illinois not paying its bills and piling up interest penalties. What about the $4.5 billion unpaid Unemployment Insurance trust fund deficit that he could’ve paid off last year, with unpaid interest having now climbed to $25,524,243.84?
• He touts a balanced budget. That’s easy to do when the Federal government drops $8.1 billion in one-time money in his lap. Where did all that money go, Governor? Is it going to show up next year in an increased baseline?

.

If it didn’t say at the end that his campaign had paid for the ad, you’d swear it’d been put out by the Onion or the Babylon Bee. Keep it coming, J.B.
