  60. I couldn’t care less what the man “looks like.” I’m just tired of the state refusing to be responsible and stand up to the tired and corrupt Democrat Machine. This Kennedy is a far cry from reform-minded JFK & even RFK. Still, way less obviously in Madigan’s pocket than JB Pritzker. JB is a truly BAD guy, and a mascot of the Chicago aristocratic class controlling our law and politics.

    “Wait. What? No!”
    “They’re real?”
    “Daaaarn!”
    “I’m what? Aw, man! I didn’t know!!”

    And that’s how Chris Kennedy fired his 12th campaign photographer since he announced he was running for governor.
