I’m really sick of these two disrespectful guys who think they are actually doing something good for the people. Bailey holds a super spreader Christmas function in the middle of a pandemic like the virus is nothing.
I don’t consider myself to be the smartest guy around, but to see all the people who follow him and DeVore like they are the next best thing to sliced bread. There are some real messed up people out there and these two are leading them straight to the ICU and it’s sad. Real sad.

What he woulda wrote about DeVore and all the Covidiots, and the rest.
Unmatched.
To feebly comment to this post,
The use of a kids’ story and cartoon to convey a Covidiot message is on par to Bailey and his growth to this global pandemic… and no big words either.
I’m old enough to remember when liberals were the crybabies. Now, thanks in part to Trump, claiming of victimization is a central tenant of American conservatism.
During this season of giving, DeVore and Bailey running for statewide positions would be the ultimate gift for any democratic opponent. Throw in support from Ives and you have a modern day Festivus miracle.

He sounds pretty optimistic he will still be an attorney.
No way those two really believe they are helping people. They are purely moving in ways to promote their own self interest in ways that have caused harm. Awful.
Well JS they certainly have the Airing of Grievances out of the way..Feats of Strength should be interesting…

“DeVore and Bailey running for statewide positions would be the ultimate gift for any democratic opponent”
If Illinois was a swing state Biden won, DeVore would have joined the elite strike force of Rudy, Sidney and Jenna and unleashed the “Kracken” (it’s a thing this election) of sham lawsuits that all lost.
Every person or entity on the opposite side of the State Of Illinois in any civil or criminal case, based on past timely filed, late filed and unfiled pleadings by DeVore, prays DeVore is elected AG
I was just thinking about him yesterday. He would have been able to sum up my thoughts on this DeVore idiot easily, succinctly, and with biting precision. He could do that for any topic on this board. I still miss him.
Going all the way back to Allen Keyes I used to hope my Republican Party would finally nominate nothing but far right nut jibs and get thoroughly thrashed and then the Republican Party would see the little ghetto and nominate fiscally conservative and socially moderate candidates. Rainer, Trump Ives and these clowns sho my hope for naught. I mean really how much crazier can we get as a party?
Bailey and Devore are such a ludicrous bunch. I don’t understand why anyone down in my neck hasn’t figured that out on a larger scale. There are a lot of people in Clay County that know from experience what kind of people the Baileys are. There is a saying down here Baileys only do it for Baileys, NOTHING Darren has done was for anything but personal, selfish gain.

Doesn’t the Grinch become the redeemed hero at the end of the story? I guess Bailey and Devore are planning to sing “Fah-who foris, dah-who doris” around the big tree with JB next week.
My initial reaction is thinking of Devore/Bailey in the realm of Gene Wilder’s rendition of “Pure Imagination” from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The lyrics seem quite fitting, actually.

Um:
“The Anti-Jewish Tropes in How the Grinch Stole Christmas”
“The depiction of the Grinch is in keeping with the medieval tradition of viewing the Jew as both an outcast and a baleful force in society”
Going all anti-Christmas on a Jewish governor is a class move.

It’s really weird no one takes Darren Bailey seriouslty.
on the otherhand, he is probably a frontrunner in the GOP primary for governor.
