Pritzker Draws Mockery Over 1 Million-View X Video as Critics Call Post Cringe

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Aug 25

More than 1 million views piled up on JB Pritzker’s black-and-white X video after the Illinois governor posted a tongue-in-cheek “swagger” clip that critics quickly mocked.
The post used slang-heavy captions — “when you’re in an aura-farming contest and your opponent in JB” and “governor-maxxing” — framing the video as a self-aware bid to project cool.
Kaelan Dorr, Matt Walsh, Tom Bevan and Illinois advocacy staffer Brian Costin were among those piling on, with replies attacking Pritzker as out of touch and ridiculing his policies and appearance.
The backlash fits a broader pattern for Pritzker, whose social media posts and frequent jabs at the president have often drawn derision; his office did not immediately comment.
