On Friday, Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois posted a video with the title: “A Special Announcement from Governor JB Pritzker.” Within the video, Pritzker mocked a few of President Donald Trump’s extra comically egregious proclamations within the few weeks since being confirmed because the forty seventh president.
Pritzker first introduced his intention to rename Lake Michigan as “Lake Illinois”—a shot at Trump’s megalomaniacal choice to rename the Gulf of Mexico because the “Gulf of America.”
Lake Michigan’s shorelines abut Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, however in response to Pritzker, Illinois is a “great state,” and due to this fact, the lake needs to be renamed.
“The proclamation has been forwarded to Google to ensure the world’s maps reflect this momentous change,” Pritzker defined, referring to the search large’s pathetic try to stroke Trump’s ego by altering its maps to replicate his ludicrous govt order concerning the Gulf of Mexico.
Subsequent, Pritzker introduced that he was annexing the Inexperienced Bay space of Wisconsin so as “to protect itself against enemies foreign and domestic,” focusing on Trump’s obsessions with taking up Greenland.
“I’ve also instructed my team to work diligently to prepare for an important announcement next week regarding the Mississippi River,” Pritzker continues. “God bless America, and bear down.”
What that Mississippi River announcement is likely to be, it’s arduous to say. Perhaps one other renaming. Perhaps he’s planning an invasion—you recognize, like how Trump’s secretary of protection stated invading Mexico is “on the table.”
