From the gubernatorial campaign of Ted Dambrowski:
Ted Dabrowski slams Pritzker’s gutter language
Gov. J.B. Pritzker continues to coarsen political discourse in this country. As recently reported, he said in a speech last month to the Illinois Federation of Teachers that “Trump and his cronies can F*$% all the way off.”
Such language debases the office of the governor of Illinois.
I am also disappointed that the audience of teachers gave Pritzker’s comments a standing ovation.
The governor’s language comes on the heels of his inflammatory rhetoric comparing his political opponents to Nazis, and his words that have fomented violence against federal law enforcement officers.
You will hear no such language from me when I am governor. I will restore common decency to the office, and that will include language I use to address even my most staunch opponents. I will defeat Pritzker and succeed as governor using the same tools I have always used – plain facts, common sense and persuasive language. That is the enduring power of integrity which Gov. Pritzker has spurned, all in the vain belief that abandoning such principles can propel him into the presidency.
