Trump SAVAGES Illinois Governor JB Pritzker After Withdrawing National Guard from Crime Ridden Chicago
President Trump on Friday mocked Illinois Governor JB Pritzker in a social media post following the withdrawal of National Guard troops from Chicago.
The post, shared without a caption, featured a meme depicting Governor Pritzker standing in a fictional scene of a burning Chicago street while holding a sign that reads, “Chicago doesn’t need help. We have everything under control.” The image was intended to criticize the governor’s handling of public safety and crime in the city.
President Trump has frequently criticized Governor Pritzker’s leadership, particularly over crime rates in Chicago and the governor’s opposition to federal law enforcement efforts. The meme followed Trump’s announcement earlier this week that National Guard troops would be withdrawn from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland.
The withdrawals come amid ongoing legal and political disputes over the federal government’s role in deploying National Guard forces to assist with immigration enforcement and public safety operations in major cities.
Despite the pullback, President Trump signaled that future deployments remain possible. In a post on Truth Social, he wrote that the administration could return to these cities “in a much different and stronger form” if crime rises again, adding that he believes such an increase is “only a question of time.”
