[NYPOST] Illinois' Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker said the state ''will not stand idly by'' if President Donald Trump
 ...Oh, noze! Not him!...
makes good on his threat to deploy the National Guard to reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
to respond to crime in the Windy City.
''Unlike Donald Trump, we keep our promises,'' the governor wrote Wednesday on X. ''We will not stand idly by if he decides to send the National Guard to intimidate Chicagoans.''
''Action will be met with a response,'' he continued.
Pritzker's comments are just the latest in his recent feud with Trump, as the federal government weighs whether to send troops to Chicago.
Last week, the governor said there is no crime emergency in Chicago and Trump is ''attempting to manufacture a crisis, politicize Americans who serve in uniform, and continue abusing his power to distract from the pain he is causing working families.''
''The safety of the people of Illinois is always my top priority,'' Pritzker said on Saturday. ''There is no emergency that warrants the President of the United States federalizing the Illinois National Guard, deploying the National Guard from other states, or sending active duty military within our own borders. We will continue to follow the law, stand up for the illusory sovereignty of our state, and protect the people of Illinois.''
