  2. - Webster - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 11:58 am:

    Maybe he could afford to use some of that PPP money he got last year to fix his bus


  3. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 11:59 am:

    “It’s all ball bearings nowadays. Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads, and I’m gonna need ’bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State.”


  4. - OneMan - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:02 pm:

    Based on where that liquid is coming from I would suggest not standing in it while wearing crocs.

    ” Looks Like Sabotage ” - could’ve been that big guy in a blue windbreaker wearing the Rivian Hat ?

    “We’d ask Trump for help, but he stiffs people.”


  17. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:14 pm:

    “If you ask for ten bucks, that looks weak, and twenty is a bit greedy fir a grift like this… we need sympathy, and these folks dropping dollars, without thinking about it. I say make it $15, call it a night. Everyone pose here, pretend to be … perplexed”


  18. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:15 pm:

  22. - Rabid - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:18 pm:

    legitimate political discourse


  23. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:20 pm:

    “Sure we’re getting some cash, but that won’t even cover the dinner we ate, look more concerned, like worried”


  24. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:23 pm:

    “Darren, I don’t care that you’re the candidate, I told you it takes diesel, you see what happens when you don’t listen?”


  25. - Oswego Willy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:26 pm:

    “For a $1000 contribution, we will drive out of the state for an hour.”


  28. - Club J - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:30 pm:

    Well friends
    This is what happens when the tyrannical left gets their powers over our bus. Once we get her fixed we’ll have our friend Tom DeVore file a lawsuit against Pritzker for this. That tyrant.


  29. - Pot calling kettle - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:31 pm:

  33. - The Magnificent Purple Walnut - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:41 pm:

    And the wheels go round and round.


  34. - Rudy’s teeth - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:42 pm:

    Maintenance, Darren. It’s all about maintenance. Bailey seeks to run the state of Illinois yet can’t keep the campaign bus on the road.

    Maybe a loan from his buddy DeVore will solve his cash flow problem.


  35. - Ron Burgundy - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 12:50 pm:

    “Looks like you got a leaky Pritzer here.”

  38. - Rudy’s teeth - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:06 pm:

    Here’s an idea…lease a working bus from a company. Stop groveling for $15 donations from the fan base.

    Truly embarrassing.


  39. - Lyrics - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:09 pm:

    If I had more time in my day I’m pretty sure I could rewrite the song On the Road Again


  40. - cermak_rd - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:10 pm:

    metaphore, stop with your elite words.


  41. - Streator Curmudgeon - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:20 pm:

    “That Bell & Howell tac light is so bright, all I can see is white dots.”

    “I wish that Navy Seal who plugs it was here to fix this clunker.”


  42. - Streator Curmudgeon - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:22 pm:

    “Boy, that DeVore is a genius. Stage a phony bus breakdown then con the base for donations to fix it.”


  43. - Stones - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:27 pm:

    The Charleston Chiefs would just make the bus look mean.


  44. - Bigtwich - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:28 pm:

    “You’re either on the bus or off the bus.


  45. - Moderated - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:28 pm:

    “Bus trouble Stalls Train Wreck. Film at 11.”


  46. - Streator Curmudgeon - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:31 pm:

    “That’s odd. All the cylinders on the right are firing, but none are on the left.”


  47. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:35 pm:

    Now if I can jus’ git a hammer on the wingding, I’m sure I can get us goin’ agin.


  48. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:35 pm:

    Um, you know whatcha lookin’ at?


  49. - Streator Curmudgeon - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:36 pm:

    “Surely there’s got to be some kind of government subsidy to cover situations like this. Maybe an Electric Vehicle grant?”


  50. - sal-says - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:37 pm:

    Grifters Just Can’t Stop.

    A buck here, a buck there. It all adds up.

    LOL


  51. - Streator Curmudgeon - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:38 pm:

    “Just before it stalled, it was making this high, squeaky noise, like Tucker Carlson.”


  52. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:38 pm:

    These damn modern busses. They got so much extra junk on them that a shade tree mechanic can’t do nothin’. A sensor for this, and a sensor for that. The next thing ya know a 35 cent O ring blows and nobody’s got the part.


  53. - Bruce( no not him) - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:40 pm:

    The jokes on them. We don’t really have a bus. it’s all photoshopped.


  54. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:48 pm:

    Who put the blue def fluid into the crank case oil?


  55. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:49 pm:

    Wonder if AAA membership includes towing the campaign bus.


  56. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:51 pm:

    When the bus was in for it’s last oil change, did they change the air in the tires?


  57. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:52 pm:

    Why are we looking in the trunk? Isn’t the engine in the front of the bus?


  58. - Joe Bidenopolous - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 1:53 pm:

    =Stop groveling for $15 donations from the fan base.=

    He learned it from the former Grifter-in-Chief, who was on a plane not long ago that lost an engine and had to land. The Big Orange then sent a fundraising email so he could buy a new plane, but here’s the thing - he wasn’t even flying on his own plane, he was flying on a donor’s.


  59. - Vote Quimby - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:06 pm:

    “It ain’t got no gas in it.” ~ Carl from Sling Blade


  60. - Correcting - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:29 pm:

    What was the metaphor? Was it that we all face bumps in the road but we fix ourselves and move along? Is it a metaphor for how Darren Bailey is going to win the primary despite setbacks?


  61. - AlfondoGonz - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:32 pm:

    “There’s 240 miles to Chicago, we’re out of gas, have half a pack of ivermectin, it’s a pandemic and we’re maskless.”


  62. - Publius - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:41 pm:

    Thoughts and prayers


  63. - G'Kar - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:42 pm:

    “A little duct tape will fix it right up.”


  64. - 47th Ward - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:42 pm:

    ===Can you chip in $15 right away to get us back on the road?===

    I’d give $20 to keep him stranded.


  65. - Dotnonymous - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:44 pm:

    Trump’s new jet…Bailey’s new bus…ditto.


  66. - Anon221 - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 2:47 pm:

    How did this “K” get stuck in here?


  67. - Huh? - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 3:10 pm:

    Anyone know where the dipstick’s located?


  68. - Rich Miller - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 3:12 pm:

    OK, that’s it. Contest is over. Huh? won.


  69. - West Side the Best Side - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 3:47 pm:

    But I thought Who was on first, how could Huh? win.

  72. - NonAFSCMEStateEmployeeFromChatham - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 5:00 pm:

    Where’s the nearest biofuel station?


  73. - NonAFSCMEStateEmployeeFromChatham - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 5:02 pm:

    If the breakdown was on MacArthur or on South 5th or 6th Streets (south of South Grand):

    “Jim Langfelder and the potholes he controls.”


  74. - NonAFSCMEStateEmployeeFromChatham - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 5:07 pm:

    If this happened anywhere between Springfield and Chatham:

    “This breakdown is brought to you by decades of Springfield Infrastructure Planning Incompetence. It wouldn’t have happened if there would have been an intersection of MacArthur and both Woodside and Iron Bridge.”


  75. - Bruce( no not him) - Monday, Mar 21, 22 @ 8:34 pm:

    Alright, which one of you let Madigan change the oil??
