POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Donald Trump’s Chicago fundraiser and his expected speech at the
International Association of Chiefs of Police at McCormick Place will draw
thousands of protesters — and maybe some MAGA supporters — to downtown Chicago
on Monday. Couple that with thousands more striking teachers just trained in
civil disobedience, and we’ve got the makings of a massive political
demonstration. It might be a crowd size that even Trump wouldn’t have to
exaggerate. Dozens of political organizations and interest groups are urging
their supporters to gather at 11:30 a.m. Monday at the intersection of Wacker
and Wabash streets, which looks at Trump Tower from across the Chicago river.
The protesters are expected to include immigration groups, gun control
activists and women’s organizations. “We will be out in full force to
protest Trump’s gleeful bashing of our city, his ridiculing of the very real
violence promoted by his pro-gun policies, and his attempts to thwart us and
all Sanctuary Cities as we protect our immigrant neighbors,” Marj Halperin
of Indivisible Chicago told Playbook. Striking teachers are also expected to be
part of the protest, hundreds of whom participated Thursday in civil
disobedience training. In an email encouraging teachers to take part, CTU said
the training was for members “who are ready to step it up a notch… We will
learn from the tactics that ended Jim Crow and the Vietnam War.” During the
training, they were “coached on blocking traffic and shutting down building
lobbies,” according to the Sun-Times. No surprise that they will join Trump
protesters. “It’s a target-rich opportunity,” a CTU organizer told Playbook.
Attendees at Trump’s noon fundraiser may hear the chanting or see the protest
signs but they otherwise won’t notice the blockade way across the river.
Trump’s scheduled speech to the police chiefs convention is a few miles south
of his hotel. His presidential entourage will avoid protesters by taking a
two-and-a-half-mile tunneled access route that’s only used by the mayor, the
Cook County Board president, and certain tour buses with security clearance.
Former Mayor Rahm Emanuel liked to call it the Bat Cave. At the police chiefs
convention at McCormick Place, Trump will hold court over a friendly crowd. Last
year, at the group’s gathering in Orlando, he criticized Chicago’s handling of
crime. It’s no wonder Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson said he’ll boycott
Monday’s speech. He might consider wandering over to the Illinois Institute of
Technology campus to watch crews preparing for the Obama Foundation Summit that
starts Tuesday. Oh yeah, the Obamas are expected to be in town Monday, too. –

2020 primary races. In Illinois’ 6th Congressional District last month, the
group endorsed Jeanne Ives over former Illinois Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti in
a Republican primary. Amid funding woes, Ms. Sanguinetti dropped out within a
month of SBA List’s endorsement of her opponent, who previously lost a primary
challenge to then-Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner in 2018.)
