Illinois is becoming quite interesting in that Chicago (80% of pop, 20% of land) is trying it's ****edest to do the right thing and protect people from the moronic acts of a few. And in doing so it has become a rallying cry to unite the rest of the state (80% land, 20% pop) under the FreeDumb party. This has always been a thing, but it just seems to have been turned to "11" in the past few months. I'm curious if this will gain any substantial numbers on the R side... I have a feeling that this is just the toddler making a scene, but I regularly venture far enough into the Chicago Burbs that I feel there may be a slight R resurgence.
Ironically these are the exact people Dumpy is targeting with his tweet earlier this week regarding property values and "new" people coming into "your" neighborhood. It does give thought as to whether that tactic might be working...
