Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker raised a wild conspiracy theory Sunday for why President Trump is considering deploying National Guard troops to Chicago and other blue cities plagued by crime.
“He has other aims, other than fighting crime,” Pritzker confidently stated, during an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“The other aims are that he’d like to stop the elections 2026 or, frankly, take control of those elections,” the governor continued.
“He’ll just claim that there’s some problem with an election, and then he’s got troops on the ground that can take control.”
The White House dismissed Pritzker’s allegation.
Trump called the governor “weak and pathetic” for dismissing the need for a National Guard presence in the Windy City in a Saturday Truth Social post.
The president further warned “we’re coming” – suggesting some sort of federal action on crime in Chicago – if Pritzker doesn’t “straighten it out, FAST.”
“National Guard troops or any kind of troops on the streets of an American city don’t belong unless there is an insurrection, unless there is truly an emergency – and there is not,” Pritzker said of the situation in Chicago.
He also vowed to sue the Trump administration if troops are indeed deployed.

Quote:The CDC has published as of August 2025 that deaths by homicide per 100,000 total population, age adjusted, are lead by Alabama (14.8), Louisiana (19.3), and Mississippi (19.4)—all red states. As California reportedly sits at 5.1, Alabama indeed towers over that metric, with homicide rates approximately 190% higher.
Blue states have seemingly become an easy target, however there’s a lot of work to be done with crime rates in red states as well, per reports. That being said, we’re not seeing the same response. One can’t help but wonder, if red states were held to the same standard as blue states, would Republican leaders keep that same energy?
