Elon Musk reacted to Illinois Governor, billionaire JB Pritzker‘s open call for mass mobilization and disruption against the Republicans, and called him crazy as Pritzker called on the left to unleash hell in the streets. The comment came as the governor addressed New Hampshire Democrats Sunday at a time when the Democrats appear unmotivated and public protests taking up the vacuum of any strong political opposition.
“It’s time to fight everywhere and all at once,” he told the group of Democratic activists, officials and donors, who jumped to their feet with hoots and applause, the New York Times reported. “Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption. But I am now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace.”
“The reckoning is finally here,” he declared. He, however, did not mention Elon Musk who saw a major mass movement against him and his company Tesla — which he claimed was sponsored by George Soros. But Elon Musk was quick to react to Pritzker’s call for disruption.
Pritzker dismissed any suggestion that his Sunday speech was paving his way for 2028 election. “Fellow Democrats, for far too long we’ve been guilty of listening to a bunch of do-nothing political types who would tell us that America’s house is not on fire, even as the flames are licking their faces,” he said. “Today, as the blaze reaches the rafters, the pundits and politicians — whose simpering timidity served as kindle for the arsonists — urge us now not to reach for a hose.”
“Those same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on our defense of Black people and trans kids and immigrants,” Pritzker said, “instead of their own lack of guts and gumption.”
Right-wing political commentator Benny Johnson said that Pritzker “incites violence against Trump supporters by telling the left to take over the streets.”
