Is Illinois Governor JB Pritzker looking at a future presidental run? He is doing ALL things

a progressive governor can do from raising minimum wage, fight for a progressive state income tax, legalization of recreational pot, getting the state back on track with finances. His is pro-labor, pro-family, pro-choice, pro-working people. The Priztker name is legendary in Chicago area with hospital wings, museums, philanthropy ventures every where. He is young still at age 54 and is way beyond wealthy. His wife is superb having personally met her and talked with her. I wonder if he as further ambitions? If so, we would be lucky.
