Illinois Governor JB Pritzker laughably claimed that President Donald Trump is begging him to call the Oval Office. Nah, that’s not happening. The Democrat made clear he wants deadly crime to continue to plague Chicago’s streets while stressing he wants federal dollars to burn instead.
Here’s Pritzker. (WATCH)
Pritzker: “The president is BEGGING me to call him."

No one believes the ‘Trump begging’ narrative.
In fact, they say it never happened and never will.
Lol this never happened

Never happened more than anything that never happened

Well, maybe in Pritzker’s imagination.
Posters say Pritzker will say anything to avoid accepting Trump’s generous offer to clean up crime in Chicago.
LOL!!!! Pritzker is a typical democrat... A lying fraud.

Imagine Trump begging this clown for….anything 😂

I can't imagine Trump even begging 😂

If it ever came to it the only thing Trump would beg Pritzker to do is hurry up on the buffet line.

They lie so much they almost believe it

Haha... more like his constituents are begging him to call Trump to send in help!

Sane Chicagoans want relief from Democrat-enabled crime.
Some posters wonder what Pritzker was asking for at the end of the video.
WTF is ‘civilian law enforcement assistance’?

Johnson said repeatedly he doesn’t want more cops in Chicago
Pritzker wants federal money to spend as he sees fit to ‘fight’ crime. Trump knows better.
Commenters say it’s Pritzker’s job to protect his constituents and to work with Trump to that end.
I don't know if ignoring calls from the President is a great talking point, whether it happened or not. That's what we in the business call "not doing your job."

Pritzker’s refusal to ask for President Trump’s help shows that Dems are pro criminal and anti American.
— Carlos America (@CarlosBtnoCigar) September 4, 2025
Pritzker and his fellow Democrats will continue to sacrifice Americans on the altar of stubbornness and pride just to spite Trump. Yes, that firmly puts the Democrat Party in the pro-criminal camp.
