You like this sweater? Rahm gave it to me. Said the arms were too long for him.

Put aside politics. Unless Madigan makes me get political.

Call now and you too can get the Original Rauner Bot in his Interview Studio playset! Pull his string and hear his other overused and hated comments. This offer is only good for two more years (we hope).

It’s time to come together for my rich buddies and me as we carve up the state for our benefit.

I see it was deleted. Genuine apologies, Rich. I knew it was pushing it but hoped it was just before the line. Message understood and won’t happen again.

Where is your balanced budget so it can be voted on?

“Dad’s Home State” - Season 2, Episode 53
Bruce takes photos to troll “Mike” on Twitter, fun fades as Bruce finds out “Mike” isn’t on any social media at all. Diana picks out sweaters for Bruce’s pictures, decides which ones are best to fool Democrats. Diana’s State Employee prepares congratulatory notes to all who won on Election Day. Lance tweets pictures of Election results with sad emojis to Lou Lang, “ck” takes out “super-majority” in the Rauner Word Jumble vocabulary. Goldberg writes a letter to Jay Cutler. Comedy, 63 minutes.

Come Together… For lower wages!
Come together… For corporate greed!
Come together… For more cancer and less cancer screening!
Come together… For more autistic children shut out from our society!
Come together… For less women in the workplace and poorer families!

The Governor attempts to appeal to Illinois Democrats by donning a Jimmy Carter outfit. This may cause both Madigan and Cullerton to put their own politics aside, and support the Governor’s political agenda. Alternatively, it might convince them to lower the thermostat in their offices.

All of us here at Rauner Inc. sympathize with all of you hit so hard by these trying times. In order to help you, we are reducing the price of Rauner Legislators to 50 cents a vote. When this crisis is over, we will go back to our regular prices. Until then, remember, we’re all in this together.

If you don’t give into my non-budgetary demands you’re being an impediment to getting a budget? Okay. Is it possible those non-negotiable demands are the impediment?

Immediately thought of the Beatles song — Come together, right now, over me. It is disingenuous. I think I spelled that right.

Springfield residents flee in terror as a Godzilla-like Bruce Rauner towers over the capitol building.

The Church of Rauner sure has fancy promotional materials.
