   The Illinois governor had some fascinating answers to Kristen Welker's   
   questions on "Meet the Press."   
      
   1) "I'm a billionaire."   
      
   I didn't know that about him. So what's a billionaire doing in the governor's   
   office? Is he solving problems left and right just like Trump does in the Oval   
   Office? (Not that I'm aware of.)   
      
   2) "We've got to have a free public education available to every kid in this   
   country."   
      
   Why is he trying to appeal to illegal immigrants? Why would any Democrat   
   governor want to appeal to illegal immigrants?   
      
   And something Welker said was interesting too, for the first time ever:   
   "Despite President Trump winning 44% of the statewide vote in 2024,   
   Republicans hold only three of Illinois' 17 districts."   
      
   The governor didn't offer an intelligent response to that question, but he   
   used the old "don't make any sense at all" technique:   
      
   "We held public hearings, legislative hearings. People attended them. They   
   spoke out. There was a map that was put out. There were actually changes made   
   to the map and a map was passed, and it was done at the end of the census, the   
   decennial census, so that's how it's done in this country."   
      
   (Or was that "evade, distract, and cloudify?")
