Or...wait a minute. Is that what he said?

Or did Chicago Mayor Brandon 'Bear of Little Brains' Johnson just say he was expecting Chicago folks to do the uprising and he'd be around if they needed him?

You tell me. He's not really a 'lead from the front' sort of guy.

 Once the jaw-jacking's over, he strikes me as a 'in the rear with the gear 'til it's clear' type, and then he'll pop out to run his mouth about all the fighting he did.

Tim Walz, without even his minimal G2 (aka brain power).

So, you can tell, besides everything else going wrong with Chicago, the mentally fragile mayor has his nose out of joint about President Trump's insinuation that the Windy City is unsafe.

This pricks Johnson to his quick.

The Bear knows how to handle crime and has done so tremendously well since he took control of the city. He is also not afraid to tell anyone how it's done.

Listen to Johnson and do the exact opposite - kind of like investing advice from Cramer. Same-same.

Finkled by the porcine Governor of Illinois, Johnson wants more money - what a surprise.

And says they 'cannot return to the failed policies that got them there in the first place.'

Wait, whut? Then why is he balking at Trump and asking for more money for the same policies?

Dear God.

LISTEN TO WHAT OUR PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY CALLING FOR

What his 'people' are 'actually calling for' is the National Guard. They like what they've been hearing out of D.C.

WASHINGTON D.C. IS NOT MUCH GOING ON COMPARED TO CHICAGO - I'M GOING BACK HOME TO AFRICA, MAN

EVEN IF IT'S FOR A SCARE TACTIC, THEY HAVE TO COME HERE

Lots of people wanted to explain why it sounded okey-dokey to them.

The mayor might have a tough time getting his little uprising together.

Porculous J.B. Pritzker is trying to intimidate Chicago residents and activists from assisting in any effort to clean the city up or approving the National Guard on the streets.

What a bulbous clown this authoritarian food blister is.

This speech alone, right here, should preclude him from ever obtaining another elected office.

...Pritzker is fuming over Trump's proposal to send in the National Guard to fight Chicago's crime.  

"We are watching, and we are taking names. This country has survived darker periods than the one that we're going through right now."

If I were a Chicago resident, I'd be like, 'Yeah, you take names, mofo, and I'll see you in court, you fat fascist.'

Blue state dictators are the worst, most insufferable mini-tyrants ever.

Oh, well. As much fun as it is to visualize a murder-free weekend in Chicago, and smash and grabs being things of the past thanks to the presence of National Guard troops, they don't belong there until the governor and/or mayor requests them.

It's just the way it is.

Maybe the uprising Johnson keeps talking about will be for something entirely different - to force him to call for the National Guard.

There's no debating that the Bear of Little Brains is what he is.

And stranger things have happened when people get pushed far enough.
