The political climate in Chicago reminds me of one of the old Eastern Bloc countries, and evidently people like it that way.

One need only look at the racial makeup of Chicago to understand why it's a Democrat Party stronghold.

Just sayin'...

CHERI has a formidable female contender. Praying she will go down in 2020.

That’s part of it. The other part is on the other side of town: pussy hat wearers, reds in the teacher’s union, media that gush over and propagandize every “progressive” cause, ethnic whites who started voting when JFK was president and haven’t noticed how their party has changed, etc.

Where are you at on the southside? I’m in the southwest burbs .... in the farthest SW Corner of Cook County (where it meets Will County)

It's amazing how many houses he can collect

I lived in Hegewisch (far SE tip of Chicago) for 12 years, then hopped the border into Lake County, Indiana in 2013

I’m about 15 minutes west of the Indiana Border, live right by I-80 and Rt. 45.

The day Trump came down the escalator I called my sister and told her that I just watched my next president. She and everyone else said I was nuts.

Not downstate where I live but Chicago runs everything, and downstate is being taken over by illegal immigrants. I just retired and Wil be leaving this summer.

Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago alone has 350 acres of reliable democrat voters. Every one of them will show up and vote if there is even the slightest risk of Trump carrying the state.

In the early 70’s, I went to college with a girl from Hegewisch. I always enjoyed pronouncing it HEGG WISH! : )

It’s named for a man who had a rolling stock factory there. I liked it. It’s quiet and more spacious than most Chicago neighborhoods: many houses built on double lots, and no problems parking on the street. It’s starting to look a little run down these days, though, as the old Eastern Europeans have moved on.

There used to be a guy who called in pretty much every day to WLS talk shows — “Carl from Hegewisch.” A real character. Little did I know that some day I would live there too.

When pigs fly.....evidently Trump is getting more support from blacks but the demonrats will just ratchet up their fraud to offset this...after the dnc and the clinton cabal eviscerate Bernie, if he runs as a 3rd party candidate he could give IL to Trump...

I confess I didn’t hop on board the Trump train that day. It took me a few weeks before I was all in. Some of my friends still think I’m nuts, LOL! I am.
